How salmon help keep a huge rainforest thrivingthe Great bear Rainforest is vital to the health of the planet.

the perilous journey of the Pacific salmon from the sea through the forest rivers to spawn in its creeks.

The salmon run draws carnivores such as bears and wolves to the river bank, where they gorge on the migrating fish.

In this film, ecological economist Pavan Sukhdev, The Nature Conservancy's lead scientist Dr M Sanjayan and camerawoman Sophie Darlington talk about the salmon's unsung role in fertilising the forest.

The bears who feast on the spawning salmon don't eat on the river oe they drag the carcasses far into the forest.

The remains of the salmon contain vast quantities of nitrogen that plants need to grow.

Eighty percent of the nitrogen in the forest's trees comes from the salmon. In other words, these ocean dwellers are crucial for the forest's long-term survival.

Dwindling fish stocks from overfishing have prompted humanity to create farmed supplies, beginning with the most accessible environments on or near land.

But the drawbacks of current fish farming has created opportunities for technology like the floating"drifter pens  pioneered by Kampachi Farms.

Given enough time, Kampachi Farms will replace stagnant ponds with GPS-tracked cages stitched out of copper wire to enable a constant inflow of fresh ocean water without flushing out the precious fish.

At the bottom of this food chain, algae will feed fish, which feed bigger fish, which will feed in turn seafarers and landlubbers alike.

Sinking fish waste and seaweed detritus will gradually sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and deposit it on the seafloor to restart nature's eons-long process of creating fossil fuels.

#Sharks and Wolves: Prey Interactions Similar On land and in Oceans major predators help control the populations of their prey

as well as sharks and dugongs in Australia. In each case, the major predators help control the populations of their prey,

what has been learned about wolf and elk interaction in Yellowstone national park in the U s. to the interplay of tiger sharks and dugongs in Shark Bay, Australia.

that feed primarily on seagrasses and are a common prey of sharks. In studies with elk, scientists have found that the presence of wolves alters their behavior almost constantly,

Conceptually similar activities are taking place between sharks and dugongs, the researchers found. When sharks are abundant,

dugongs graze less in shallow water where they are most vulnerable to sharks, and sacrifice food they might otherwise consume.

This allows the seagrass meadows to thrive, along with the range of other plant and marine animal species that depend on them.

As shark populations were diminished by overfishing, the number of rays increased, which in turn reduced the level of sea scallops, an important fishery.

In Shark Bay, green sea turtles are more willing to face risks from sharks and seek the best grazing areas when their body condition is strong.

#Genetically-Modified Salmon Will be First GM Animal Available for Human Consumption Genetically modified salmon could be on supermarket shelves within a year.

Usually Atlantic salmon do not grow during the winter and take three years to fully mature.

A salmon that grows at twice the normal rate is set to be the first genetically modified (GM) animal available for human consumption.

But by implanting genetic material from an eellike species called ocean pout that grows all year round,

US scientists have managed to make the fish grow to full size in 18 months. They hope that the sterile GM salmon can offer an efficient and safe way to breed salmon in fish farms

so that the wild fish can be left in the oceans. US watchdog the Food and Drug Administration is currently considering whether the GM Atlantic salmon,

called Aquadvantage, is safe to eat. The fish could be on supermarket shelves within a year.

But environmental campaigners question whether the GM material is safe for humans to consume and fear the sterile salmon will mutate in the wild

and be breed able to. At the moment only GM CROPS like corn or soy are available for human consumption.

Also the Daily telegraph revealed recently that most animal products available in supermarkets like meat, eggs or dairy, are fed from livestock GM.

Aquabounty, the Massachusetts company behind the GM salmon, say the fish will be sterile and therefore poses no risk to the wild.

and there is no guarantee these fish remain sterile. It poses far too great a risk to wild salmon.

A fish that grows that quickly is likely to lose some of its environmental benefits.

There is no such thing as a free salmon lunch and we will pay the price,

he said. It will be a huge victory for the biotechnology industry if a GM animal becomes available for human consumption.
