NEWSLETTER MAY 2005
News
Dear UN Atlas members,
A new topic on mollusks has been added this month by the Census of Marine Life (CoML) which acts as the lead editor for the Biology section of the Atlas. The Census is a growing global network of researchers in more than 70 nations engaged in a 10-year initiative to assess and explain the diversity, distribution and abundance of life in the oceans - past, present and future.
The section on Large Marine Ecosystems has expanded with a new topic on the California Current. This is an example of a large pelagic ecosystem which has been studied since 1949.
New content this month is quite varied, from a discussion on ethics in marine mammal research to information regarding NOAA's on-going programmes.
If this newsletter may interest someone you know, please forward it. Contribute to and participate in the growing Atlas community by becoming an active Member of the UN Atlas today.
Thank you,
The UN Atlas of the Oceans Editors
