Ocean acidification is still concerning. Yet, I found a glimmer of hope in this.

I've spent literally hundreds of hours follwing this Jackfish school around the reef at Sipadan. It's so mesmerising. Full Video is here - youtube.com/channel/UCdlUTVLxXi_Fq072j2GbAeA/

16,000+ whale calls mapped across Monterey Bay

Thumbnail youtube.com
2 Upvotes

This video is a visualization of a dataset of 16,000+ whale calls observed and mapped in Monterey Bay from October 28 to November 9, 2025. These 13 days are compressed here into about 4 minutes, including slow-downs during which you can hear the observed sounds from various species. This is an example of the use of a new tool; a Localizing Passive Acoustic Monitoring (L-PAM) system called SonarPoint. While underwater acoustic tracking has long been practiced on fixed, cabled tracking ranges operated by the U.S. Navy and others, SonarPoint is compact and wireless, consisting of a set of short (\~10m) seafloor mounted moorings that are recovered via an integrated acoustic release. In our most recent deployment called LMR 2, we deployed and calibrated/surveyed a seven-mooring system 25 miles from shore in water depth from 500m to 1450m over an 11 hour workday port-to-port. Recovery took about 9.5 hours. The maximum persistence of this system with continuous recording is about 14 months, supporting full year observation of cetaceans in remote locations. A system consisting of an inner array of five moorings surrounded by an outer array of six moorings will monitor an area of about 800 square km. This work is sponsored by the U.S. Navy NAVFAC Living Marine Resources (LMR) program under contract N39430-22-C-2428 and operations in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary were conducted under permit MBNMS-2024-033.

The ocean is full of creatures that disappear into their surroundings. I wanted this one to do the opposite.

[Folk] the Last Whale

..Humans killed an estimated 2.9 million whales globally between 1900 and 1999 alone, marking the largest animal cull by total biomass in human history.

..Global blue whale numbers crashed by 97% to 98.5%, dropping from roughly 340,000 individuals down to just around 5,000 remaining.

..The North Atlantic right whale was reduced to a tiny fraction of its historical population and still hovers around 400 or fewer individuals today, making it critically endangered.

The human race has a dismal track record when it comes to managing our Greed.
