	Sea Turtle, Inc. South Padre Island Texas Live Sea Turtle Cam Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle Rescue
		Sea Turtle Inc is still in need of cash donations to help with the high cost of caring for the turtles such as medications, food, blankets, and electricity required to keep the many tanks heated.
		Sea Turtle, Inc. was founded in 1977 by Ila Loetscher, better known as "The Turtle Lady of South Padre Island." STI was formed to aid and assist in the protection of Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle - and to ultimately restore the Ridley population to a level that will ensure its survival.
		Sea Turtle, Inc. - a not-for-profit organization - assists and supports the United States Dept. of the Interior with their efforts to establish a nesting beach for the Kemp's Ridley sea turtle within the National seashore protected area of North Padre Island, off the coast of Corpus Christi.

	Salton Sea
		One of the major functions of the Salton Sea is to serve as a sump for agricultural wastewater for the Imperial and Coachella Valleys.
		Approximately 75% of the freshwater inflow to the Sea is agricultural drain water from Imperial Valley.
		The Sea supports a National Wildlife Refuge and is a critical stop on the Pacific Flyway for migrating birds, including several state- and federal-listed endangered and threatened species.

	US Bureau of Reclamation - Salton Sea Project Office - Salton Sea Brochure - 1999
		The Sea also attracted recreationists from the nearby metropolitan areas and became so popular that the Salton Sea State Recreation Area was developed along the northeast shoreline.
		The Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge was established on the south end of the Sea to enhance its wildlife values.
		Local, state, and federal entities are, and will continue to be, actively involved in efforts to deal with Salton Sea issues and preserve the values associated with the Sea.

	The Salton Sea, CA (DesertUSA)
		The Salton Sea is an inland saline lake in the Sonoran Desert of extreme southeastern California.
		It is borderded on the south by the rich agricultural areas of the Imperial Valley and on the west, by Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.
		The current salt level of the Sea is in the area of 41 to 43 TH PPM.

	Salton Sea Geography
		It is located in the southeastern corner of the state; it spans across Riverside and Imperial counties in one of California’s most scenic desert areas.
		The present water level of the Sea is sustained by agricultural runoff and, to a lesser extent, by municipal effluent and storm water that flows into the Sea through rivers and creeks in the Imperial, Coachella, and Mexicali Valleys.
		The Sea and the wetlands along its shoreline are a critical part of the Pacific Flyway (a major migratory avian corridor) providing permanent habitat and seasonal refuge to millions of birds, representing hundreds of species.

	Chilean Sea Bass Frequently Asked Questions
		Some Chilean sea bass fisheries are managed in a responsible manner, but there are some areas where the species has been and continues to be overfished.
		In addition, the United States works closely with Chile to ensure that Chilean sea bass imported from there has been legally caught and is properly documented.
		However, the majority of Chilean sea bass is harvested in distant waters of Antarctica, frozen onboard factory vessels, and shipped several weeks to several months later.

	Salton Sea Land Status Points of Interest
		The current Salton Sea was created between 1905 to 1907 as the Colorado River broke through a canal bank and the water flowed uncontrollably into the Imperial Valley.
		The Sea is the largest lake in California being 35 miles long and 9 to 15 miles wide.
		Thousands of outdoor enthusiasts flock to Salton Sea National Wildlife National Wildlife Refuge to bird watch, as it is one of the premiere bird watching "hot spots" in the nation.

	Salton Sea Fishing Info!
		The sea is such a great place i am honored that people are checking my site to see the reports and conditions at the sea.
		Tilapia, though not the most glamorous fish in the sea, are a key source of food for corvina, the sport fish that has lured fishermen and women from around the country to the desert sea.
		The sea largely is replenished with agricultural runoff from Imperial Valley farms.

	Economic Development and the Salton Sea
		The Sea has longstanding and inextricable ties with agricultural community; it relies on inflow from irrigation runoff as its primary replenishment source, and the agriculture industry relies on the Sea as a repository for this runoff.
		Research is underway to determine the feasibility of this endeavor which would contribute to the region's economy and at the same time reduce the fish overloads in the lake.
		The Salton Sea Authority and its partners have been working hard to get the truth out about the Salton Sea and at the same time address the causes of fish die offs and the avian diseases that cause bird deaths.

		Black Sea states, through the Istanbul Commission and in accordance with article 3 of the Protocol on Dumping to the Bucharest Convention, shall define concentration levels for trace contaminants in dredged spoils, by February 1998.
		Based on harmonised criteria, information on the state of bathing water suitable for advising the public on the potential risks to their health shall be made widely available to the public during the active tourist season, starting in 1998.

	A coordinated programme for global calibration/validation of altimeter sea state data
		The principal objective is to apply a consistent calibration procedure across all altimeter and buoy measurements of winds and waves, generate a series of calibration corrections, and so provide users of wave data with the means to achieve consistent measurements of sea state across all altimeter and buoy data sets.
		This algorithm was developed empirically, through comparisons with buoy data, and depends upon an assumed, unique relationship between the wind speed and the small-scale sea surface roughness caused by wind-generated gravity waves [e.g., Glazman and Pilorz, 1990].
		In their study they demonstrated that some of the effects due to non-local sea can be removed by considering the difference between the Ku and C Band radar backscatter.

	The Black Sea Strategic Action Plan:
		Each person from their own perspective, whether they are talking about fisheries, the state of beaches, the colour of the sea, its smell, the state of the economy, tourism or the coastal landscape, the conclusions are usually the same: something has gone badly wrong.
		People living around the Black Sea and those visiting it should be able to enjoy the Sea without exposing themselves or their children to health risks as a result of pollution, but should also be prepared to take an active part in keeping it clean.
		Indeed, the whole sea suffered changes in the structure of its ecosystem during the last three decades and eutrophication is one of the factors which has contributed to this change.

	Special Education: Federal-State Plan
