Seller's Description:
Bill Curtsinger (Photographer) Very good in Very good jacket. 39, [1] pages. Illustrations (color). Glossary. Related Reading. Published in association with the Gulf of Maine Aquarium of Portland, Maine. Mary Cerullo describes herself as a "science interpreter." The author of a number of children's books on the ocean, she was named Outstanding Marine Educator of the Year in 1992. Cerullo is currently the communications coordinator for the Maine Mathematics and Science Alliance. Bill Curtsinger was born January 23, 1946, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. A self-taught photographer Curtsinger was a member of the elite Navy Photo Unit, Atlantic Fleet Combat Camera Group during the Vietnam War. Specializing in underwater and natural history subjects, he has photographed thirty-three articles, (six cover stories) for National Geographic Magazine. His photo stories have also appeared in Smithsonian, Outside, Time, Newsweek, Life, Audubon, Natural History, and other publications worldwide. Curtsinger has photographed a number of books including Sea Soup. His image of a sea turtle hatchling was selected to appear on the cover of the National Geographic 100 Best Pictures collector's edition, and six of his photos were featured in National Geographic 100 Best Wildlife Pictures. A teaspoon of sea water can hold a soupy serving of a million phytoplankton! These tiny floating plants come in thousands of amazing variations. Invisible to the naked eye, phytoplankton are the source of our atmosphere, our climate, our ocean food chain, much of our oil supply, and more. They are also food for zooplankton, tiny animals that often look like weird life forms from outer space. In this volume (another volume: Sea Soup: Zooplankton will be available in Fall 2000), Mary Cerullo's text answers intriguing questions about these tiny drifters that have shaped our world, while Bill Curtsinger's extraordinary photomicroscopy serves up tantalizing images of this sea soup. Many of the photos for this book were taken at Maine's Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Science and the Darling Marine Center, using an Axiophot 2 research microscope donated by Carl Zeiss, Inc.
