These “unsung heroes” play many roles in ecosystem services, yet we have only started the scratch the surface in learning all these organisms have to offer. Historically, microbes have received negative attention for their part in disease and illness, however from producing oxygen to their ability to degrade oil, they play an essential role in sustaining our environment.

Coastal Routes RadioCoastal Connections - Episode 11 - Sounding off: Protecting whales through acoustic researchThe best way to protect whales is to keep ships and other human activities away from them, but we have to know where they are in order to avoid them. Traditionally this has meant watching for whales from the surface, which is time consuming and ineffective especially for deep diving species of whales. The solution may be to use another sense: sound rather than sight. The same acoustic detection techniques developed to detect the submarines are now being used to listen underwater for unique whale calls.
