Chiefs and leaders of the Coalition of First Nations for Finfish Stewardship (FNFFS) are in Ottawa this week to meet federal decision-makers to discuss the importance of the sustainable salmon farming industry in British Columbia. They are also there to emphasize the negative impact of current federal government policy decisions to remove salmon farms on Indigenous rights and title issues, food security, affordability, jobs, and reconciliation in rural, coastal and Indigenous communities.

wtf is this.

You know, I considered keeping these in my inbox, make it an aquarium, but I think it's best if I set them free Just look at how shiny they are!! Absolutely lovely little dudes, I love their coloring and frilly fins

A fish hatchery is a place for artificial breeding, hatching, and rearing through the early life stages of animals—finfish and shellfish in particular.

Colorful Celtic Sea

Billows of light greens and blues spanning hundreds of kilometers brightened the waters of the Celtic Sea in spring 2024. Phytoplankton blooms often appear in northern seas as surface waters grow warmer and receive more sunlight in the spring. Satellites glimpsed the emergence of this colorful area for over a week before the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) on NASA’s Aqua satellite acquired this natural-color image on May 10.

Phytoplankton are tiny, plant-like organisms that often float near the ocean surface. With enough carbon dioxide, sunlight, and nutrients, they can grow in massive numbers. In turn, they form the foundation of the aquatic food web, feeding everything from microscopic zooplankton to shellfish to finfish.

Warming in the spring and early summer sets the stage for stunning blooms to occur in northern waters such as the Celtic Sea, North Sea, and Barents Sea. Early in the season, when waters are well-mixed and nutrients are plentiful, blooms of diatoms tend to dominate. These phytoplankton, with their silica shells and ample chlorophyll, color the surface waters green. As the water warms and stratifies, conditions favor a type of phytoplankton called coccolithophores. Armored with plates of highly reflective calcium carbonate, they make surface waters appear a milky turquoise-blue.

The combination of colors in this bloom may be due to a mix of phytoplankton types. Alternatively, the variety of hues may stem from abundant colored dissolved organic matter in the vicinity of the bloom, which can make seawater appear anywhere from green to yellow-green to brown depending on the concentration.

Determining which phytoplankton species are present within a bloom has only been possible by analyzing water samples. However, scientists could soon be able to distinguish phytoplankton types from space. The OCI (Ocean Color Instrument) on NASA’s PACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem) satellite, launched in February 2024, can detect hundreds of wavelengths of light and may be able to reveal the species makeup of blooms such as these.

Animal Crossing Fish Dish Friday - #16

Brought to you by a marine biologist and a salad of confusion...

CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!

Seafood Salad

In ACNH: 1. Randomly obtain from any Villager who is cooking or at your Restaurant in Happy Home Paradise 2. Cook at a stove with 1 Sweet Shrimp and 1 Squid.

In real life: from the United States

Fish of Choice: It's crab - either imitation (which tastes great and is easy to obtain & use - it's real meat, just not actually from crab (it's Haddock or another finfish)) or the real deal. Judging from the way the ACNH seafood salad looks like, it's a combination confusion about what seafood salad actually is. If you're going for the look of the ACNH meal, cooked squid and shrimp will be needed.

Look under the cut for ingredients and how-to prepare, because I'm actually covering the 2 dishes this ACNH fish dish thinks it is.

The ACNH dish looks a hell of a lot like a Crab Louie, which is a type of seafood salad that actually looks like a traditional salad. Just like in some salads where you add grilled chicken, the Crab Louie is a salad you add crab to. Though the origins are a bit murky, this particular salad was being served in California around 1914, so that's neat. Anyway, you'll notice the ACNH Seafood salad looks most like the Crab Louie by actually being a salad with lettuce and other veggies:

How to prepare the Crab Louie: On a bed of iceberg lettuce, add crab (imitation or not), hard boiled egg, tomato, and asparagus. The dressing is Louis dressing, which is a combination of mayo and chili sauce. Like any salad, mix and match what you like. (I'd personally take out the asparagus because I don't understand asparagus in a cold salad.)

Actual Seafood Salad is more like potato salad than a traditional, lettuce-based salad. These are typically shrimp and imitation crab-based (essentially the "seafood" in the seafood salad, just as potatoes are the "potato" in the potato salad), with red onion, celery, and dill all mixed in mayo, old bay seasoning, and a bit of lemon juice.

So yeah, I don't know if ACNH knew what it was doing or if it just went "seafood salad? That's easy!"

And there you have it. Bon apetite!
