Dear fellow sea-fans,
We're in the process of collecting quotations related to coral reefs (and
marine life in general), for use on the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration's introductory web-page on coral health and monitoring:
www.coral.noaa.gov.
If you have a favorite short quotation (a sentence or paragraph is just
right) about reefs, reef organisms, conservation, marine biodiversity or
oceans in general, please E-mail them to me along with as complete a
citation as possible.
The quotations change every time the page is reloaded, so we'd like to have
as many as possible!
Here's an example currently used on the web-page:
"A coral reef cannot be properly described. It must be seen to be
thoroughly appreciated."
Sidney Hickson, 1889, quoted in Whitten, Anthony, et. al. "The Ecology of
Sulawesi." Yogyakarta, Indonesia: Gadjah Mada University Press: 1987.
Thanks for your help!
Cheers,
Osha
