Moving Image		 Winter
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 0:56:43

For those plants and animals that don't migrate south for winter, a lot of preparation goes into getting ready for winter. When it comes to dealing with winter, plants and animals know things we humans don't.

Moving Image		 Climate Change: In Our Backyard
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 0:56:45

Using close-to-home examples, the views of leading scientists come alive as they show how climate change can affect almost every aspect of our lives - and in turn, how we affect the climate.

Moving Image		 Spring
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 00:58:03

Because spring comes so late to northern New England, things have to happen quickly and profusely. Spring is the time of year that wildlife and plants come to life again and get right to the business of creating new life.

Moving Image		 Bioinvasion
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 00:58:03

As human activity silently globalizes our world, our modern day ecology is under onslaught from spreading alien organisms. These plants and animals are capable of moving aggressively into a habitat and monopolizing resources to the detriment of other species. Can scientists help us win the war against this bio-invasion?

Moving Image		 North Atlantic phytoplankton bloom
Science, Moving Image

The SeaWiFS instrument looks at the world oceans and land to observe the plant life and phytoplankton. Zooming down to the North Atlantic one can see the North Atlantic Bloom (in bright green). This shows a flowing upwelling.

Moving Image		 Bodies In Motion: The Biomechanics of Sports
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 0:54:36

Using athletics, QUEST takes a fresh look at the way our bodies move. Bridging the gap between research and the playing field, coaches, trainers and athletes themselves discover how to optimize performance and what to do when injury causes that performance to fail.

Moving Image		 Animation of photosynthesis on a spinning globe
Science, Moving Image

The SeaWiFS instrument looks at the world oceans and land to observe the plant life and phytoplankton. In this sphere projection, you can see the whole world pulse with life. By taking three years of continuous data as a whole, experts have been able to map trends and anomalies in the global circulation of carbon to a degree of detail that has never been done before.

Still Image		 Comparison of plankton levels between decades using satellite imagery
Science, Still Image

The global ocean chlorophyll archive produced by the CZCS was revised using compatible algorithms with SeaWiFS. Major changes were observed regionally: chlorophyll concentrations decreased in the northern high latitudes while chlorophyll in the low latitudes increased. These results provide evidence of how the Earth's climate may be changing and how ocean biota respond.
