ChESS: Biogeography of Deep Water Chemosynthetic Ecosystems

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee Biogeography of Deep Water Chemosynthetic Ecosystems (ChESS). The Biogeography of Deep Water Chemosynthetic Ecosystems project explored life in the hostile, acidic, oftentimes hot and corrosive deep-sea seeps and hydrothermal vents, where life thrives away from any sunlight. The project, led by British scientists Paul Tyler and Maria Baker, American scientist Chris German, and Spanish scientist Eva Ramirez-Llodr, examined more than 1000 species and expanded ranges further north, south, and deeper than had previously been explored.

COMARGE: Continental Margin Ecosystems on a Worldwide Scale

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee Continental Margin Ecosystems on a Worldwide Scale (COMARGE). The Continental Margin Ecosystem on a Worldwide Scale project examined life on the continental slopes, over the course of 60 expeditions. The project, led by French scientists Myrian Sibuet and Lenaick Menot and American scientist Robert Carney, discovered stretches of life flourishing on these marginal spaces (including heretofore unknown coral reefs off Africa). The project also examined the threat posed by oil and gas drilling on these sensitive stretches of seafloor.

FMAP: Future of Marine Animal Populations

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee Future of Marine Animal Populations (FMAP). The Future of Marine Animal Populations project analyzed fishing data and scientific surveys to determine changes in diversity and distribution of marine life. The project, headed by Canadian scientists Ian Jonsen, Heike Lotze, and Boris Worm (and previously by Ransom Myers), identified hot spots of diversity drawn from the Census of Marine Life database and changes in water temperature as one of the most integral determinants in the shaping of marine diversity patterns, while confirming that marine conservation helps to correct the rapid population declines associated with over-exploitation of marine stocks.

ArcOD: Arctic Ocean Diversity

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee, Arctic Ocean Diversity (ArcOD). The Arctic Ocean Diversity project was designed to catalogue animal species and microbes found in the Arctic region—on, in and under the sea ice, in deep basins and along the continental shelves. The project was led by American scientists Bodil Bluhm, Rolf Gradinger and Russ Hopcroft, who sought to document the northward extensions of ranges of Arctic fish and invertebrates.

CMarZ: Census of Marine Zooplankton

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee Census of Marine Zooplankton (CMarZ). The Census of Marine Zooplankton project examined the diversity and distribution of ocean current-residing invertebrates. The project, led by American scientist Ann Bucklin, Japanese scientist Shuhei Nishida and German scientist Sigrid Schiels, collected more than 10,000 samples from locations around the world’s oceans, discovering nearly 100 new species.

MAR-ECO: Patterns and Processes of the Ecosystem of the Northern Mid-Atlantic

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee Patterns and Processes of the Ecosystem of the Northern Mid-Atlantic (MAR-ECO). The Patterns and Processes of the Ecosystems of the Northern Mid-Atlantic project documented marine life along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The project, led by Norwegian scientist Odd Aksel Bergstad, documented about a thousand species, from the smallest invertebrates to various species of whales, in deep basins and along the slopes of the underwater mountains.

OBIS: Ocean Biogeographic Information System

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life affiliate program, the Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS). The Ocean Biogeographic Information System project, compiled alongside the Census of Marine Life, serves as the world's largest online repository of spatially referenced marine life data, containing millions of records created from hundreds of CoML datasets. The project, led by American scientists Edward Vanden Berghe and J. Frederick Grassle (previously by New Zealander Mark J. Costello), locates all oceanic species in a permanent, evolving repository, identifying oceanic points of high diversity, tracking species dispersion, and integrating species locales with variables such as temperature, salinity, and depth.

HMAP: History of Marine Animal Populations

Subseries contains correspondence, research data, and conference minutes and notes related to the Census of Marine Life subcommittee History of Marine Animal Populations (HMAP). The History of Marine Animal Populations project traces evidence of how human activity and nature have changed marine life in recent years. The project, led by Irish scientist Paul Holm, Danish scientists Brian MacKenzie, Anne Husum Marboe and Bo Poulsen, and American Andrew Rosenberg, examined the prevalence of shell jewellery, evidence found in whaling logs, fishing boats' taxation logs, historical storm records, and numerous other primary and secondary sources, documenting humanity’s destruction of marine habitats, fish stocks and invertebrate populations.
