A great number of species make their home in the vast waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Although

the entire ocean makes up an ecosystem, many smaller habitats are found within, including an

open- water

habitat

off

the

coast

of

the

Northern

Atlantic

Ocean

known

as

the

Sargasso

Sea.

Sargassum is an alga(

海藻

) that floats in masses that can continue for miles. The waters of the

Gulf Stream push the water in a northward move into this area. This constant move and varying

temperature support the accumulation of the brown-colored seaweed.

The

Sargasso

Sea

is

so

enormous

that

one

method

of

information

collection

has

not

been

enough

for

scientists

to

obtain

an

accurate

picture

of

what

takes

place

within

this

ecosystem.

Researchers have needed to employ several methods of sampling. Methods such as dragging nets

over the surface of the water and videotaping beneath areas of sargassum have served scientists

well. Information collected has shown that the Gulf Stream pushes brown algae from open water

into the Sargasso Sea area, creating a diverse floating habitat in an area that would otherwise not

support that wildlife.

In the most recent study of the sargassum community off the shores of North Carolina, eighty-

one fish species were documented as using the area as a microhabitat. This is an increase from

previous

studies.

The

types

of

fish

found

here

are

both

commercially

and

environmentally

important. The South Atlantic Fishery Management Council is working to regulate the harvesting

of sargassum. The Council hopes to have the area classified as an Essential Fish Habitat. Which

would afford it certain protections.

Further

research

needs

to

be

done

before

scientists

understand

how

to

best

protect

the

Sargasso

Sea

as

well

as

understand

how

it

goes

about

supporting

so

many

important

types

of

wildlife.

can

be

The third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson, is on the two-dollar bill. He was the

main writer of the Declaration of independence in 1776. Jefferson was one of the most influential

of the nation's Founding Fathers. He was also a plant expert, architect, musician and inventor.

Another of American's greatest presidents, Abraham Lincoln, is on the five-dollar bill. He served

as the sixteenth president from 1861 until 1865. He successfully led the country through the Civil

War, saved the Union and ended slavery.

The picture of Alexander Hamilton appears on the ten- dollar bill. Hamilton was never president.

But he was the first Secretary of the Treasury and one of the Founding Fathers. He was also an

economist and political philosopher.

Andrew Jackson was the seventh president, serving from 1829 to 1837. He supported popular

democracy and individual liberty. His picture is on the twenty-dollar bill.

Another president is on the fifty- dollar bill. Ulysses S. Grant served from 1869 to 1877. Before

serving as president, Grant was military commander of Union forces during the Civil War. Under

his command, the Union Army defeated Confederate forces.

So who do you think is on the one hundred-dollar bill? It is Benjamin Franklin. Franklin was

never elected president, but was one of the Founding Fathers. He was also a leading writer and

printer, political thinker, politician, postmaster, scientist, inventor, civil activist, and diplomat.

These American statesmen are on the front of the bills. The backs of the notes show images

from nation's history or famous places. They are in order, the Great Seal of the United States, the

signing of Declaration of Independence and the Lincoln Memorial. The others are the Treasury

Building, the White House, the Capitol Building and independence Hall.
