Lagoons and Wetlands

25 mins English and Greek

Marine science documentary on lagoons and wetland areas. Footage comes from several protected lagoons, in particular Gialova lagoon in the Peloponnese in south-west Greece which supports an extremely rich and varied fauna and is an important stopover for many of the species of migrating birds.

Oil Spill at Navarino

17 mins English and Greek

Marine science documentary on the effects of the oil spill from the Greek tanker ILIAD in Oct 1993. The video shows in detail how an environmental impact assessment of the area was carried out, and presents some interesting conclusions as to past events and ideas on which to model predictions for the future.

---

Aquaculture and the Marine Environment

17 mins English and Greek

Detailed study of the environmental impact of fish farming on 3 Greek fishfarms (Cephalonia, Sounion, Ithaca). Divers with underwater cameras, and a small, very manoeuvrable Remotely Operated Vehicle, obtained live footage showing how conditions inside marine cages affect fish behaviour, and how fish behaviour both inside and outside the cages affects the marine environment.

---

Chemosynthesis in European Seas

17 mins English

Marine science documentary showing the methods by which underwater research is carried out in different places (hydrothermal vents in the Greek island of Milos; submarine caves at Salerno, Italy; cold seep sites on the Kattegat coast, Denmark). These sites demonstrated how some bacterial life forms can survive in areas without light because of their ability to use sulphide and methane as a chemical energy source.

---

The Jago Adventure

9 mins English

Marine science documentary showing some of the flora and fauna filmed from the 2-man submersible JAGO on its research mission around Cretan waters, including the previously unrecorded courtship ritual of the ribbon fish, at a depth of about 200 ft.

---

Sulphide, Methane and the Marine Environment

17 mins English and Greek

Marine science documentary on hydrothermal vents and underwater gas seeps; their flora and fauna (Milos, Greece; the Kattegat, Denmark). The diving team recorded the underwater effects of an earthquake on Milos, where the water coming from the underwater vents reached more than 100 degrees Celsius.

---

The use of the Demand Feeder in Aquaculture

23 mins English and French and Greek.

Marine science documentary showing how farmed fish species (sea bream and sea bass) can regulate their food intake, and how wild stock (pagrus pagrus) learn to use the demand feeder only 24 hours after capture.

---

Separation of Prawns and Fish within Trawls

9 mins English and Greek

Made in cooperation with the Marine Laboratory Aberdeen. Marine science education showing how separator panels can be fitted to commercial prawn trawl nets, and how these nets are used to best effect.

---

Fishing for the Future

10 mins English and Greek

Made in cooperation with the Marine Laboratory Aberdeen. Marine science documentary showing the problems caused by catching undersized fish.

---

The Pelagic Tar Threat: Monitoring & Control of the marine environment in eastern Crete

20 mins English and Greek

Shows the results of the research project, entitled "Monitoring and Control of coastal pollution in Crete" was supported by the Greek Ministry of Environment and Planning. Its main aims were to locate the origin of this type of pollution, to investigate the pathways by which the tar was transferred and deposited, and to put forward ideas to help prevent or contain the problem.

---

Research Vessels of Greece

9 mins English and Greek

Made for LISBOA 98, the video shows the vessels from the National Centre for Marine Research (RV AEGAEO), the Institute of Marine Biology of Crete (RV PHILIA) and the Hellenic Navy Hydrographic Service (RV NAUTILUS) in action throughout the Aegean.

---

Frontiers of Understanding

20 mins English

Achievements of the first ten years of IMBC and a look towards the future.

---

Turtle Tracks

12 mins English and Greek
