Muito obrigado Jordan Davis (DiveMaster PADI) e Ariela Engler (Advanced PADI), por proporcionarem um excelente mergulho nesta manhã de domingo!!!!!
Tivemos a oportunidade de encontrar algumas espécies comuns no litoral brasileiro e nos aperfeiçoarmos na técnica do Mergulho Autônomo.

If you know your survey site coordinates, enter them manually in decimal degrees using WGS84 Map Datum. Use the minus sign for latitudes south of the equator and longitudes west of the Prime Meridian to 180 degrees.

If you do not know your survey site coordinates, click the “Map Location” tab to use the map to zoom into your survey site and drop the pin on the map to fall within your survey dive site in the water (not on land or the beach). Ensure you zoom in as much as possible to ensure data accuracy.

En la cuarta jornada de limpieza de Buscando Soluciones de Fondo patrocinada por la Gobernación del Departamento Archipiélago de San Andrés, Providencia y Santa Catalina, y realizada por la Iniciativa Bajo Tranquilo de la Fundación Help 2 Oceans, se lograron extraer de los fondos marinos del Valle de las Estatuas en total 380kg de residuos sólidos sumergidos, con la ayuda de 25 participantes en la jornada. El residuo que predominó en número fueron las latas de bebidas (52) y las botellas de vidrio de bebidas (49). Se encontraron adicionalmente una alta cantidad de tubos de PVC y fragmentos de plástico, metal y textiles. Los residuos de mayor preocupación son un frente de aire acondicionado que fue extraído, y un cilindro de 1.5m de alto de acetileno. Los residuos encontrados demuestran la falta de educación en la comunidad ya que continúan arrojando sus basuras al mar, y reflejan la necesidad de implementar medidas prontamente para mitigar el impacto ambiental de los residuos sólidos sumergidos en los ecosistemas marinos; sin embargo, con esta jornada de limpieza se entrega un punto de buceo libre de contaminación, y un espacio marino recuperado de 4.000 metros cuadrados (sic). ( Alexandra Pineda-Muñoz Bióloga Investigadora )
Se logró rescatar a 565 individuos de diferentes familias que se encontraban asociados a los desechos marinos. El grupo predominante fueron los cangrejos (Crustacea:Brachyura) con 137 individuos, lo cual se debe a la presencia de fondos arenosos en la zona, de donde fueron extraídos la mayoría de los residuos. Adicionalmente se encontró alta abundancia de caracoles (Mollusca:Gagtropoda), y otras especies como gusanos, ermitaños, langostas y erizos. Las especies encontradas son típicas de los fondos arenosos, y tienden a buscar resguardo en grietas y corales o bajo la arena para evitar ser depredados fácilmente, por lo cual es de esperarse fueran encontradas entre las llantas. Sin embargo, la asociación de estas especies a los residuos sólidos es preocupante, ya que dicha asociación puede estar causando efectos nocivos en las especies por acumulación de compuestos tóxicos desprendidos de las llantas.
Se logró extraer a la mayoría de las especies asociadas a los residuos sólidos sumergidos con vida, a excepción de 3 peces que fallecieron, sin embargo se considera que el protocolo de extracción y separación en superficie fue exitoso, respetando la vida de las especies marinas al máximo.

It was shocking how much debris there was on this short strip of reef we covered. Future debris collecting events and projects are much needed in this area in order to keep the marine life florishing.
Island hopping, fishing in the area and near by resorts construction work could have contributed to the debris.
Take care of our marine lives, stop throwing garbages anywhere and anytime you like. We have the so called Garbage bin and thats where your garbages should go. Decipline yourself,
It was lying on the sea bed around 18meters depth dead already. Divers took it up and turtle was buried in the sand in the near by beach.
