Dan Haifley, Ocean Currents | ‘Forest of the Sea’: Tall tales of kelp (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You may have popped one of its bulbs, or untangled its stalks. What you sometimes find on the beach is kelp, brown algae that lives in cool near-shore waters and there’s a new book that makes a case for preserving it. Swaying stalks dampen ocean swells that erode the coastline while creating sheltered habitat for hundreds of species. It provides a home and daily chores for California’s 3,000 sea otters. It absorbs excess carbon generated by climate change while yielding an ingredient that provid
Dan Haifley, Ocean Currents | The Davidson Seamount Effect (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ocean mysteries are being unlocked in a biologically rich and well-used deep-sea laboratory just off our own shores. Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary’s seafloor plunges deeply, quickly in places such as the 2.5-mile-deep Monterey Bay Submarine Canyon west of Moss Landing, which hosts often mysterious marine life.

Read excerpt
Below deck we peered out the side window of the Team O’Neill catamaran southeast of the Walton Lighthouse when a boy from the Oakland flats tapped my shoulder and asked, what’s that? An underwater view of a sea lion swimming in kelp, I replied. He’d never seen anything like it. Neither had I. Before participating in O’Neill Sea Odyssey, he’d spent the night at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park with dozens of his peers along with their city’s park staff and State Parks executives who wanted to int
Dan Haifley, Ocean Currents | Drill for oil in a marine sanctuary? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Every environmental victory is temporary, and every environmental loss is permanent,” thundered legendary environmentalist David Brower to the cameras as we sat in a cramped San Francisco TV studio. That was five years before designation of Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary protected waters between Cambria and the Marin Headlands. But more than four decades later, the Trump administration has proposed new offshore oil and gas development to originally include the entire U.S. coastline but
