Download or read book Glorious Gulf of Mexico written by Jesse Cancelmo and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stunned by widespread ignorance about the Gulf of Mexico following the 2010 Macondo oil spill, underwater photographer Jesse Cancelmo decided to turn his camera on the marine life of this 600,000 square mile international sea that connects five US states, six Mexican states, and the island nation of Cuba. With the goal of countering dismissive descriptions of a Gulf plagued with dead zones and overrun by oil rigs, Cancelmo set out to capture a world rarely acknowledged, let alone seen. Between the Gulf's rich shoreline habitats and its prolific oceanic communities, thriving amid dazzling coral reefs, brine seeps, canyons, salt domes, and hard bottom banks, are more than 15,000 species, including an iconic cast of sea animals: sperm whales, manta rays, whale sharks, manatees, spotted dolphins, and more. Capturing images from locations all around the Gulf, Cancelmo reveals the beauty and glory of these diverse habitats and species. Although this is a book of sensational underwater photography, Cancelmo intends it to be more than a celebration of oceanic beauty. He also hopes to inspire better understanding and appreciation of the natural marine habitats in the Gulf and to strengthen support for their protection and sustainment.

Book excerpt: Captain RP Laxman and Oliver Cape sail to the Olympus Islands on the giant wind ferry Charon. Their mission is to administer the World Authority's peace at the end of the long anarchist war... Expecting to make a useful contribution in an outpost of empire, they instead become enmeshed in local intrigue and incompetence. The Resident Commissioner is a pompous alcoholic, with a Treasurer scheming to replace him. The Secretary, James Darling, is a buffoon with a dangerous, diseased mind. The Japanese trader, Omi, is also prominent in the affairs of the Islands, as are the Resident Commissioner's wife, Jocasta, and the Treasurer's daughter, Hope... The Olympus Islands are being slowly drowned by the ocean. The native People of the Coral, bemused by the Authority's representatives, realise they have to make use of their innate occult vision and take a more active role in their own affairs... Even though they know that, ultimately, the inhabitants of all worlds live at the direction of the Fates and the Furies.

Book excerpt: Celebrates and explains the astonishing range of habitats on Earth and the intricate balance of their animal and plant communities This book is a beautiful visual reference to the world's natural habitats and the plants and animals that live there. It explores global habitat types, including desert, Arctic tundra, and tropical forest - and distinctive regional habitats, such as the windswept puna grasslands of the Andes or the dripping, fern-clad rainforests of New Zealand. Packed with fascinating illustrations, the book analyzes how each habitat works and examines its unique combination of plants and animals, along with the features that suit them to live there. It then goes deeper, telling stories about how the inhabitants relate to one another and interact. Stories are told using images and graphics, showing what is going on in the natural ecosystem. The stories include survival strategies and life cycles, how pollinators fertilize plants, and how animals distribute the seeds, how similar species divide up food or living space to avoid competition, and how some species cooperate in intimate partnerships. Earth's pristine wildernesses are dwindling, so the book includes national parks, wildlife reserves, and other protected areas, and the conservation efforts needed to preserve our precious biological diversity.
