Download the pdf here. I’ll post the answers next Monday. First person to comment with the correct answers (here or on Facebook) I’ll send a copy of the Smithsonian’s Whales, Dolphins and Porpoises (Flexibound). Also, if I’ve missed a state with a marine mammal “symbol”, please don’t hesitate to let me know. If you have […]
Sea glass can be thought of as a well traveled piece of history. The hard substances that you find have spent a considerable amount of time floating in the ocean. It has been tumbling along the sand and water for so long that that the glass, slate or what have you, has been polished by […]
This is a series I will be featuring each Tuesday this summer to get a special sneak peak at the different personalities behind the scientists, activists, and educators (including bloggers) who play an integral role in the marine science conservation field. It’s essentially an extension of the overwhelmingly popular and well done Tumblr blog, This […]
Megalodon: The Monster Shark Lives Discovery brings SHARK WEEK viewers on a search for a massive killer Great White shark responsible for a rash of fatalities off the coast of South Africa. One controversial scientist believes that the shark responsible could be Megalodon, a 60-foot relative of the Great White that is one of the […]
Since 2009, during the solstice and equinox of each year a prize for either science, philosophy, politics, and arts & literature is awarded by the esteemed judge brought in by the editors of the blog 3 Quarks Daily. This filter blog, created by founding editor S. Abbas Raza, is a “one-stop intellectual surfing experience by […]
In the most amateur sense you would call yourself a shell collector…However, considering the fact that you are not just collecting for the sake of collecting (although you may be), but to study the specimens (even if it may be in the most primitive sense), therefore, you can call yourself a conchologist. A person that […]
Chitin (kai-tin) is the main material for 1) the exoskeleton of shrimp, crabs and lobsters, 2) the beak of squid and octopi and 3) the radula of mollusks. It is very similar in make up to glucose and similar in function to keratin (which is what makes up our hair, skin and nails).
One idea I had when I started this website almost ten years ago was that I wanted to make science simple and accessible. I hope I have created a place where questions on anything from barnacles to whales can be answered in a knowledgeable no-nonsense or overly jargon tone. My secondary goal has also been […]
JOIDES stands for the Joint Oceanographic Institutions for Deep Sea Sampling. This project began in the 1970’s as a collaboration between many prominent universities and oceanographic institutes (including Woods Hole and Scripps) to take core samples and study the bottom of the ocean. The vessel used for the project was known as the Glomar Challenge. […]
12% of land is protected, while only 2% of the sea is protected. That’s not proportional when you think that the ocean takes up over 70% of our planet. Please watch this incredibly creative, punchy, entertaining, and most importantly, inspiring video from One World One Ocean. I was inspired enough to want to share it […]

is it possible that the spirits of the ancestors of Africans are trying to retaliate the bad ways,some whites treated them during the slave trade.After all when they were carrying them across the sea,some fell into the seas,as a matter of fact most of them were sick and died cause for fear of infection of diseases they were thrown into the river.
i can solve the mystery
I think it must have been a black hole or something
i think this is the point where gravitational force is maximum.
tripp out
salam
i think as we muslims believe is correct
IT IS SOMETHING DIVINE
the capitol of the last divine link IMAM MEHDI(a.s)
the things happening is so different. i will try and find the scerete of bermuda triangle. its my one of the aim
Mystery has been solved. There is an active Valcano under the sea.
Regards
I thought the bermuda triangle was located off Ponce Inlet FL. and New Symerna Beach Fl Why does it say otherwise. It has a picture showing Miama and it sould have a Picture starting with Daytona Beach FL or Ponce Inlet FL.
angelo how can u solve the mystery??????
Sayed Agha Ali..You terribly mistaken! there is NO such a thing in Islam..Imam Mehdi is going to be recognised in Makkah. Islam might have NO link whatsoever to the Bermuda Triangle!
i think that its a kind of ocean flood nothing to worry about.
i think there is something magnetic power in that region thats why these all are happening.
I actually thought the Bermuda triangle was more mysterious than what i just read but its not. if there are ships passing through it every day it must be like any other part of the ocean. But if there is something more to it then who ever wants to solve the mystery must have an interview with the Creator Himself He Knows what is going on there.
We need spiritual intervention to solve the problem .
there is some natural power which attracts everythingcomes close to him.
I sailed singlehanded in a 10 meter yacht from San Juan, Puerto Rico, from 22 January 2007 thru the Bermuda triangle and survived. It aint a threat like everybody thinks!
its kida scary. somthing to do with neuclear physics!!!
Its a beauty by nature
Hey, prince what do you mean by him?
send me document bermuda
triangle
Hey im a muslim…
not really too religious tho :$
but this is my theory
in the quraan it says jaal is still on earth in a cave
this only fits in so well that god put jaal in one of these islands and put a boundry so no man could reach the jaal
Hey all.
God knows better who is there, what is that eg Gravitational Force ? ? ?
i think there must be something like a gravitational force which is pulling the ships,air crafts etc.so research is to be done on that place
I love this information
there r some creations of allah which d technology could not login still now..!!!!
i believe it is the place where gravitation force is maximum . eventhough we cant believe the missings of so many metres big and heavy tonnes planes and ships r missing. there must be a black hole. is there a relation between this triangle and2012. what do u say . both r misterious and should be known. get me some documents about it. what about the history in past says about it.
hi ! i’v done intesive research on the whole phenomena and i have come to a conlusion that completely dematerialises any unscientific perception of the phenomena.
1.)The Bermuda triangle is one of the only 2 places on earth that the magnetic compass points to the true north!
2.)Most incidents have been logically explained!
3.)ships & planes go through every day,it has all been blown out of reasonable proportions!
conclusion: it is amere case of earth’s natural magnetism interfering with the ships’ &planes’ normal operating patterns!

i want to know aboyt bermuda triangle briefly
ok, well since most of the mysterious disapearances are aircraft- it is either stronger gravitational pull- or a magnetic field, which would affect compasses. since magnetivity doesnt affect ships as much as an airplane- whereas if u lose the bearing of your plane’s altitude, wing degree, or direction, your fate is close to sealed. with ships- you can always look at the sun or stars for a direction, and you would know if the ship is upside down. a stronger gravitational pull would; also effect planes much more than ships. there are many different theories about this, but these are the scientific facts.
IT IS AMAZING
hey! i m a muslims.
According to me in bermuda something natural powers exist which ALMIGHTY ALLAH don’t wanna show us now it can be related from judgment day (the end of the earht) or it can be related from DAJJAL that he live there. that’s ALL…
God is great,he kept somethings as secret to we human,that even the greatest scientific inventions can’t unravel. If he should make everything straight forward and clear… how are we going to understand that he is the lord of the universe. Please i’ll like to appeal to all those muslim brothers to speak there mind and stop using religion as reference to what they ain’t sure about.Happy boxing day fellas
it is nothing to do with gravity being at its strongest point because as physics has proved gravity is always constant.
i personally think it will be something to do with electrical storms and bad weather.
