Warning,
warning!
We
just received a warning from one of our onboard computers that
we are having some major problems. We will have to pull up to
shore to see what the problem may be. We've checked the coordinates
and see that we are at approximately 42 degrees N, and 60 degrees
W.
Where are we? You may find our current position by looking at a world map.
As
we approach the shoreline, we see huge rocky cliffs and crashing
waves. We find a fairly calm place to anchor. While the technicians
check out the computer problems, we decide to check out the shore.
Take a look at what we found.

What do you think this is? Move the mouse over the picture to
find out.
Some
other organisms we found. Move the mouse over the pictures to
see what they are.


Rocky
shore ecosystems are full of interesting life and are an important
part of the marine environment.
