General Interest

Genetic Resources Action International (GRAIN)
http://www.grain.org/
Founded in 1990 and based in Spain, Genetic Resources Action International (GRAIN) is an international, non-governmental organization committed to ending the loss of genetic diversity (genetic erosion). GRAIN's mission is based on the premise that "the loss of biological diversity, particularly in the 'gene rich' countries of the Third World, undermines the very sense of sustainable agriculture as it destroys choices for the future and robs people of a key resource base for survival." To that end, the GRAIN homepage (in English, French or Spanish) offers the online quarterly newsletter Seedling, with relevant articles and editorials back to 1995; Books, briefings and other materials; Global Trade and Biodiversity in Conflict (a series of critical reports that examine "points of conflict between the privatization of biodiversity ... and peoples' efforts to empower local communities in biological and cultural diversity management"); and BIO-IPR, a new electronic mailing list from GRAIN. For those interested in global biodiversity issues, this is an interesting and up-to-date resource. [LXP]

Researcher discovers 18th moon orbiting Uranus
http://www.astronomynow.com/breaking/990519uranus/index.html
Department of Planetary Sciences/ Lunar and Planetary Laboratory
http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/
Scientist Erich Karkoschka, at the Lunar and Planetary Lab at the University of Arizona, has discovered another moon, the eighteenth, orbiting Uranus. The unusual aspect of this discovery is that while most moons are discovered within days of an image being taken, in this case, the image is more than thirteen years-old. The spacecraft Voyager 2 captured the original image when it flew by Uranus in January 1986. However, no one was able to recognize this satellite until Karkoschka investigated these images. A summary of this discovery can be found at the first site, a news release from Astronomy Now Online. The second site provides background information on Erich Karkoschka. [SN]

8. Wildlife Coastal Zone: Intertidal Life -- Terraquest
http://www.terraquest.com/galapagos/wildlife/coastal/intertidal.html
Over the past weeks, heightened tensions have again placed the future of marine life of the Galapagos Islands into question. Beloved to students of evolution the world around, the Galapagos Islands -- and its unique wildlife -- are threatened by human population growth, invader species, and commercial fishing. Recently, the fishing of a rare variety of sea cucumber, Ischitopus fuscus, has gained international attention. The demand for sea cucumbers, which are used in cuisine in France and China, has risen over the past decade, resulting in the export of millions of sea cucumbers. In 1992, the Ecuadorian government imposed a ban on the fishing of sea cucumbers, but poaching continued at an alarming rate. In 1995, armed sea cucumber fishermen took over the ecologically famous Charles Darwin Research Station, forcing the return of the sea cucumber harvest. In 1998, the Ecuadorian government passed a series of sweeping protective measures (The Galapagos Conservation Law) for the Galapagos Islands. Despite enthusiasm from the international community, the new laws again seem uncertain in their effectiveness. This week's In The News chronicles recent events in the Galapagos, and the eight resources listed above provide background information on the Galapagos and sea cucumbers.

The first two resources (1-2), from Environmental News Network, describe the current threats to sea cucumbers in the Galapagos Islands. World Wildlife Fund provides the third site, which details the 1998 Galapagos Conservation Law (3). Hosted by the Emory University Law School, the Galapagos Coalition site (4) contains a modest collection of links to Galapagos-related resources. Maintained by the Department of Geological Sciences at Cornell University, Galapagos Geology on the Web (5) offers a wealth of information, figures, photographs, and links to (geologically focused) Galapagos resources. Knowledge Matters' Literature Library provides this full-text version of Charles Darwin's "The Voyage of the Beagle" (6), complete with footnotes; for the full text of other works by Darwin, follow links from his name. The California Academy of Sciences has put together an extensive metasite on echinoderms (7), with links to Web resources, researchers, images, and more. Terraquest provides a brief, illustrated description of intertidal life in the Galapagos (8); click on the additional headings to learn about Galapagos sea turtles, land iguanas, marine iguanas, sea lions, fur seals, or birds.
