Thought to be roughly similar to Marine Biology, are denoted with
brackets, such as [Marine Science] or [Biological Oceanography]. Also
note that BS and MS or PhD below may be linked separately to their
specific program or department sites.

Our manatee species page is at http://marinebio.org/species.a... and contains all sorts of information and tons of links to other related resources. Marine mammalogists are those who specifically study marine mammals like manatees. Have a look at their society site at http://www.marinemammalscience... for more about what they do. Good luck!

I'm 13 and since I was 5 whenever someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up I would always say Marine Biologist and they would loo at me like I didn't know what I was talking about except my mother. Recently I have been running through the internet looking for websites and posts on Marine Biology or Biology in general I even read almost completely through my science textbook that I have for school. Thank you for all the fascinating information!

Definitely not. In Texas, the best school for this field would be UT Austin.

You're going into the same field I'm trying to get in!! I'm currently a junior at UNT. Boston University is an exceptional school for this field, as one of the professors specializes in it and it's a bit rare to find professors who specialize in the studies of cartilaginous fishes. Where you go for you undergraduate degree doesn't matter too much, as long as it's an accredited university in the field of sciences. UCLA is a good school too, as well as UT Austin. I'm still doing research on Rutgers but apparently that's a good option too. Good luck!

Not my area of expertise, but as no one bothered to answer you for two months: Most marine life floats in water, i.e. it has a specific density of water. Therefore a presence/absence of life does not change the gravitational pull. Any effect would have to come from something else than the mass.

Re: Mimic Octopus, Thaumoctopus mimicus at MarineBio.org

Probably just a few ounces. They are rather small octopuses. Why are you looking for that information specifically?

According to the leading authority on threats to species, the IUCN Red List site at http://www.iucnredlist.org: "This taxon has not yet been assessed for the IUCN Red List..." so it is currently unknown whether this species is threatened or endangered....

Well you're a great place to start! For more information, don't miss the links on this page to other great online resources, e.g., the links up under the title to SCIRIS / BioOne ~ Scholar ~ Taxonomy ~ ARKive ~ Bing ~ Google ~ Flickr ~ Threatened Status and our links under Conservation and References & Further Research lower in the page. You should be able to find nearly all information about mimics that there is online from this page. Hope that helps!
