CAVEAT: We are not involved in any original research (much as we'd like to be - any governmental agency or lab interested in funding us for algae or bacteria research, please contact the Chesapeake Bay Governor's School for Marine and Environmental Science. It has clean lab capability though affiliation with the Virginia Institute of Marine Science) on the topics on this page. Therefore, none of this is our original work. Think of us as "editors." We merely put the materials together as a database so that users can make interesting and informed comments in the policy forum in our guest book. So, we have plagiarized the contents of this site from the sources listed below. Additional materials borrowed are listed in red REF: indicators as close as possible to the text within the page. Thus, the reader can readily determine where we got our ideas. There are 10 other sources on the internet for each line within this project. The data on these issues is almost inexhaustive. There is no way we could recognize everyone out there who has published our ideas. We have given as much credit for the ideas to as many of the publishers as possible where possible. We respect international copyright laws and publish this as a totally educational site. We are not deriving any earnings from this site other than what may be derived in the form of scholarships under the rules governing Thinkquest.
