	ESA - Observing the Earth - Earth from Space: The Bay of Biscay
		A break in the clouds in an Envisat observation of the west coast of Europe this week reveals a striking marine phytoplankton bloom currently dominating the Bay of Biscay.
		Phytoplankton are microscopic marine plants that drift on or near the surface of the sea, by far the most abundant type of life found in the ocean.
		Globally, phytoplankton are a major influence on the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, and hence need to be modelled into calculations of future climate change.

	EO Newsroom: New Images - Bay of Biscay in Bloom
		A large phytoplankton bloom in France’s Bay of Biscay brought bright swirls of light blue and turquoise to the surface across much of the bay.
		Coccolithophores are not hazardous to their environment, and it is not at all unusual to see such a bloom in the Bay of Biscay this time of year.
		In addition to the role these organisms play in the marine food chain, scientists are interested in tracking coccolithophore blooms as indicators of the physical state of the ocean and how the ocean may be changing in response to shifting weather patterns and longer-term climate change.

		In recent years it has become clear that one of the easiest, cheapest and most comfortable ways to see good numbers of highly sought-after seabirds is from the ferries between England and northern Spain thatt cross the Bay of Biscay.
		Heading south into Biscay the numbers of birds increases, especially when approaching the edge of the Continental Shelf.
		Where the water is deepest the numbers of birds tends to decrease but once the southern edge of the shelf is reached they appear once again and here Little Shearwater and Wilson's Storm-petrel are possible.

	Unusual behaviour of Cuvier’s Beaked Whale Observed in the Bay of Biscay
		They spend the majority of their time diving to great depths in search of their food and spend only a limited time on the surface recovering from their deep dives and are therefore not researched widely.
		Such canyons and continental slope waters are known to occur in the Bay of Biscay and the unique year round research of BDRP has demonstrated that Cuvier’s beaked whales are found in these waters all year round.
		They tend to be seen individually or in small groups of 2 — 4 individuals in the canyons, on the canyon plateau or on the continental slope and display a slow swimming behaviour or rest on the surface as they recover from their dives.”

	Bay of Biscay 1997
		Most of the daylight on this journey was spent crossing the English Channel and passing the Brest Peninsula of France, crossing the bulk of the Bay of Biscay, generally the most interesting area, during the hours of darkness.
		We estimated that we would have reached the deep water of Biscay at around an hour after nightfall, and would have passed out of it by around an hour before sunrise, so we had just missed what was probably the most productive area, and hence had not seen quite as much as we had hoped.
		If our observations are anything to go by, any crossing that goes through central Biscay during daylight at this time of year could be very exciting indeed, and could rival any pelagic trip in Northern European waters for excitement and quality species.
