释义 |
The Haida Salmon Restoration Corporation (HSRC) is a Vancouver-based company funded by the Old Massett band of Haida Gwaii. The company conducted a small scale Ocean Fertilization experiment in 2012. 120 tons of iron compound were deposited in the migration routes of pink and sockeye salmon in the Pacific ocean West of Haida Gwaii over a period of 30 days.[1] The project resulted in a {{convert|35000|km2|abbr=on|-3}} plankton bloom that lasted for several months and was confirmed by NASA satellite imagery.[2] The HSRC scientific team collected a significant amount of oceanographic data using autonomous underwater vehicles (Slocum Gliders), Argo Drifters, Multi-Spectral Sonar, Surface Seawater samples, Phytoplankton Tows and other methods. On 15 July 2014, the oceanographic scientific data gathered during the project was made publicly available under the ODbL license.[3] References1. ^http://www.nature.com/news/ocean-fertilization-project-off-canada-sparks-furore-1.11631 2. ^http://disc.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/giovanni/giovanni_user_images#iron_bloom_northPac 3. ^http://www.whoi.edu/ocb-fert/page.do?pid=38315 2 : Companies based in Vancouver|Salmon restoration |
