Upwelling is the Secret Ingredient to Productive Oceans

Wind and ocean currents work together in upwelling, the phenomenon of cold, nutrient-packed water pushing to the surface. It forms the basis of the ocean’s food chain that attracts marine life from dolphins to seabirds, while creating incredibly robust fishing grounds.

Diving in the Mediterranean Sea: Granada, Spain

In Summer 2011, Oceana’s Ranger embarked upon an expedition in the Mediterranean and Eastern Atlantic to explore seamounts and sea canyons. These unique ocean habitats are generally teeming with marine life, but are relatively unexplored due to their depth and complex terrain.

This video was filmed during a dive near Granada, Spain on July 16th, 2011. A variety of fish, corals, sea slugs and a camouflaging octopus all make appearances. Visit http://na.oceana.org/en/explore/creat… to learn more about the species featured here and other fascinating marine life.
