ocean." It is a unique pelagic ecosystem based on species of S<I>argassum</I>
that are able to develop without contact with land. The Sargasso Sea is bounded
by ocean currents circulating around the North Atlantic sub-tropical gyre.
Although it includes the Bermudan Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ), the vast
majority occurs in areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ). The Sargasso Sea
Alliance is led by the Bermuda Government, which has already demonstrated a
strong leadership role. The Alliance aims to mobilize support from a wide
variety of national and international organizations, governments and donors for
the institution of protection measures for this unique ABNJ ecosystem. Key
partners to date include International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN),
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Stanford University
Center for Ocean Solutions and the Pew Foundation. The Alliance is funded
entirely by private sector donors, including the Kaplan Foundation and the Wait
Foundation. </FONT></FONT></SPAN></P>

facility provides a window into these underwater worlds, offering a variety of
hands-on experiences to daily visitors, as well as programming opportunities.
Our focus is on displaying ecosystems as complex communities of organisms
interacting in their environments. The six main exhibits are models of local
Florida ecosystems (seagrass bed, mangrove forest, coral reef, etc) and vary in
size from 500 to 3000 gallons. We also have a touch tank and a variety of
smaller displays. With the help of our dynamic displays we strive to provide the
public with a better understanding</P>
