She was able to do one of the slides (small red ones) and she just had fun climbing the steps, turning water on and off in various spots, getting dumped on from the big bucket (that's a lot of fun for the kids), and just
playing in the shallow areas of the zero entry pool.
In 1991, the IMO adopted guidelines which recommend that ships should avoid taking on
ballast in shallow areas and during toxic blooms of marine algae; keep accurate records of where and when ballast is loaded; exchange ballast water at sea, where toxic organisms are rare; and discharge sediments into approved areas at the port of destination («End of the line for deadly stowaways», New Scientist, 24 October 1992).
It reveals growing evidence that trawling on the flat, sandy
beds in shallow areas can skew the ecology to the advantage of worms and other small, soft species eaten by the fish that the trawlers are harvesting.
This research not only provides the first clear evidence that microorganisms were directly involved in the deposition of Earth's oldest iron formations; it also indicates that large populations of oxygen - producing cyanobacteria were at
work in the shallow areas of the ancient oceans, while deeper water still reached by the light (the photic zone) tended to be populated by anoxyenic or micro-aerophilic iron - oxidizing bacteria which formed the iron deposits.
Cuttlefish can often be
seen in the shallower areas and hawksbill turtles are common, especially on morning dives when they can be found resting under rocky ledges.
These huge, threatened creatures, which can grow to 4 feet and weigh up to 400 pounds, feed on limu (seaweed) that grows on
rocks in shallow areas.
You can
snorkel in the shallow areas right off beaches such as secluded Colombier or in the protected bay at Petite Anse, which teems with colorful aquatic life.
Excited and bounding with energy, the child worked on some new moves for a few minutes and then she proceeded to dive
again in the shallow area.
French Bulldogs aren't really known for their swimming abilities, so while he doesn't care to swim laps, he does love to run around and
play in the shallow area.
Generally these dive sites are
in shallower areas that reduce the dangers posed by large reef predators.
In the shallow areas be sure to keep your eyes open for peacock flounders, octopus, needlefish and turtles or drop down a little deeper over dense coral growth to see puffers, moray eels, parrot fish, lobsters, and even sea horses.
