Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 1148: . On TV again
The reason why Sanders applied to Qin Shiou was that he was worried that the racial outbreak would occur again in the process of cultivating the luminous sail jellyfish.
Jellyfish have amazing reproductive capacity. If you want to breed this thing, you must be prepared for population crisis.
Different jellyfish have different reproductive methods, but they are all powerful, otherwise they will not live on the earth for so long. You must know that in the age of dinosaurs, jellyfish appeared in the ocean, and it has continued to this day, and it is contemporary. All the creatures of's are destroyed, they don't know how many vicissitudes of earth, they are still alive...
Qin Shiou has been learning about jellyfish these days, so he understands what Sanders means. He said: “You can cultivate. We have leatherback turtles here. We are not afraid of small-scale outbreaks.”
In fact, he has the idea of breeding jellyfish. Firstly, he will feed leatherback turtles, and secondly, to see if he can develop new projects, but if he breeds, he must control the scale. Jellyfish outbreaks are really not fun.
Approved the research topic for Sanders, Qin Shiou filled two luminous sail jellyfish in a small fish tank to surprise Winnie.
As a result, he thought about it, he put down the small fish tank again, let's go to night, and create a dream world for Vinnie at night.
After returning to the villa, Vinnie was entertaining several people. These people were dressed formally, some with microphones in their hands and cameras at their feet.
People who Qin Shiou thought were the Guinness Book of World Records came back, and looked closely at them with the Newfoundland Independent Television logo. They turned out to be TV reporters.
Seeing Qin Shiou, Winnie said, "Oh, great. I'm about to call you back. There is a TV station to interview our fishery. Come and entertain you."
Qin Shiou shook hands with the reporters, and the reporter in charge of the interview said his intention. The topic they interviewed was the jellyfish disaster. Because it was Qin Shiou who discovered the crisis first and then reported it to the Ministry of Fisheries, and his fishing ground was the least affected, so he received attention from the TV station.
Canadians attach great importance to building their own brand. Therefore, all interviews with TV stations are welcome. If you watch TV live broadcast instead of post-editing, you often see young people suddenly appearing in the camera to steal the spotlight.
The two parties first negotiated the interview question, and then Qin Shiou took them to the beach.
The reporter glanced around and saw that the blue water was everywhere in his eyes. Where are there any jellyfish that stranded and died? He subconsciously asked: "Did your fishing ground suffer from jellyfish disasters?"
Qin Shiou laughed and said, “No, it’s just that I dealt with it overnight after discovering the problem. These jellyfish have been sent to the ice store. Later I plan to deal with it and make fish and shrimp feed into the fishery.”
After the interview, the reporter said that they will publish a special report in the evening, and there will be an interview with him. Please watch it.
At dinner, Winnie turned on the Newfoundland Independent TV Station, which is a very important local TV station, and its status is equivalent to that of the satellite TV in the Chinese province. It’s not easy to be able to log on to the special programs here.
The program begins, the first is to introduce the details of this jellyfish disaster.
This time the disaster was not only in Newfoundland, but also in Nova Scotia, but Newfoundland was the worst affected. The spring southeast wind was violent, and the sea breeze blew jellyfish into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. From TV, now, the Gulf One The circle is full of sail jellyfish that stranded and died.
The originally blue sail jellyfish was dehydrated and died in the sun, and then its body color changed to pale black after a chemical reaction. The white sandy beach turned pale black. It looks shocking.
Qin Shiou sighed: "Fortunately, we started early, if the beaches of our fishing grounds become like this..."
Speaking, he shook his head, sighing.
After introducing the disaster situation, the program carried out science popularization. First, it introduces the species of jellyfish and their reproduction. Among them, the reproduction problem is explained first.
Jellyfish reproduce through the pod. After their parent body sinks to the bottom of the sea, it can move on the attached crop, and while moving, they will split out of the foot pouch and stay on it.
Time and conditions permit, these foot pouches can reproduce more polyps, so that after self-replication, even if the mother only leaves tens of thousands of fertilized eggs at the beginning, it will eventually evolve into billions of polyps!
When the hydra grows up further, the small jellyfish will split up one by one, and the final number will reach tens of billions.
The most awesome is a lighthouse jellyfish, which is very small, only five millimeters in size. They grow up from childhood to adulthood, and when they mature and mate, they will not die, but will immediately rejuvenate, become larvae, and then grow again, which is incredible...
Now many marine scientists in various countries are studying this kind of jellyfish. In an environment with qualified resources, this kind of lighthouse jellyfish can be immortal and go through the life cycle again and again. From this point of view, it is like the legendary fire phoenix. Mythical beast.
There is another scary thing, that is, not only are the hydrops of jellyfish in large numbers, they will also dormant.
In other words, when the external conditions are not suitable for proliferation, they can fall into dormancy, up to a hundred years of dormancy, when the environment is suitable, when will they reactivate.
But this is not the cause of the outbreak of jellyfish populations. Even if their reproductive capacity is so powerful, they could only survive in the ocean before, but they cannot erupt unscrupulously.
According to the analysis of marine experts invited by the TV station, there are two reasons for the jellyfish outbreak. One is the reduction of natural enemies, the other is the idealization of the living environment due to the greenhouse effect, and the eutrophication of seawater leads to abundant food.
In the past 60 years, humans have obtained 3 billion tons of fish from the ocean. These are all wild animals, not human farmed. At the same time, humans have discharged more than 3 billion tons of garbage into the ocean. Therefore, the entire ocean has undergone great changes.
In addition, the rapid development of human society has produced a large amount of industrial and domestic garbage, and sewage discharge has led to more and more surplus nutrients in the ocean. As a result, algae blooms, red tides and enteromorphs are popular, so algae provide sufficient plankton The plankton multiplies in large numbers, and the jellyfish, which feeds on plankton, began to dominate.
Behind the outbreak of jellyfish is the withering of marine fish resources. The marine food chain has always presented a pyramid structure, from diatoms and single-celled plants at the bottom to large fish and marine mammals at the top. This structure has been stable for hundreds of millions of years.
But the outbreak of jellyfish populations has caused them to rob plankton on a large scale, making fish lack food sources and breaking the ocean food chain. Therefore, fishery owners pay so much attention to the problem of jellyfish outbreaks.
Maybe for the entire ocean, a large number of jellyfish outbreaks in one area have little effect on the whole, but for the farms in that area, it is a disaster.
In the news, the footage was continuously cut from various fishing grounds. There were stranded jellyfish on the shore, and a large number of dead fish floating in the sea with their belly turned over in the water. Some fisheries had just stocked fry in the spring, and these fry were wiped out! (To be continued~^~)
