Ocean found in GANYMEDE - Jupiter's largest moon

NASA has found a massive saltwater ocean under the icy crust of Jupiter’s largest moon Ganymede.  They evidently say that it could support life.

They say it could contain water more than the water found in oceans in earth.

“This discovery marks a significant milestone, highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish,” said John Grunsfeld, assistant administrator of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters, Washington, DC.  He also said “A deep ocean under the icy crust of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth”

PC: http://www.thehindu.com/

Ganymede

It is the largest moon in our solar system.

It is the only moon with its own magnetic field.

The magnetic field causes aurorae, which are ribbons of glowing, hot electrified gas, in regions circling the north and south poles of the moon.

Reason

Ganymede is close to Jupiter.

It is also embedded in Jupiter’s magnetic field.

When Jupiter’s magnetic field changes, the aurorae on Ganymede also change, “rocking” back and forth.

“Because aurorae are controlled by the magnetic field, if you observe the aurorae in an appropriate way, you learn something about the magnetic field. If you know the magnetic field, then you know something about the moon’s interior,” said Saur.

How they found

Rocking motion of the two aurorae tells us that a large amount of saltwater exists beneath Ganymede’s crust that could affect its magnetic field.

The saltwater ocean present in Ganymede will create a secondary magnetic field which will give a counter effect to the Jupiter’s magnetic field.

This suppress the rocking effect bringing down the rocking of aurorae from 6 degrees to 2 degrees.

Estimate

Ocean is 100 km thick, approximately 10 times deeper than oceans in earth.

Buried under the 150 km thick ice

UPSC corner - Coral reefs

Coral reefs are diverse underwater ecosystems held together by calcium carbonate structures secreted by corals. Coral reefs are built by colonies of tiny animals found in marine waters that contain few nutrients.

Most coral reefs are built from stony corals, which in turn consist of polyps that cluster in groups. The polyps belong to a group of animals known as Cnidaria, which also includes sea anemones and jellyfish. Unlike sea anemones, corals secrete hard carbonate exoskeletons which support and protect the coral polyps.

PC: http://en.wikipedia.org/

Reefs grow best in warm, shallow, clear, sunny and agitated waters.

Often called "rainforests of the sea", coral reefs form some of the most diverse ecosystems on Earth. They occupy less than 0.1% of the world's ocean surface, about half the area of France, yet they provide a home for 25% of all marine species, including fish, mollusks, worms, crustaceans, echinoderms, sponges, tunicates and other cnidarians.

Paradoxically, coral reefs flourish even though they are surrounded by ocean waters that provide few nutrients. They are most commonly found at shallow depths in tropical waters, but deep water and cold water corals also exist on smaller scales in other areas.

Coral reefs deliver ecosystem services to tourism, fisheries and shoreline protection. The annual global economic value of coral reefs is estimated between US$29.8-375 billion.

However, coral reefs are fragile ecosystems, partly because they are very sensitive to water temperature.  They are under threat from 

·         Climate change

·         Oceanic acidification

·         Blast fishing

·         Cyanide fishing for aquarium fish

·         Sunscreen use

·         Overuse of reef resources

·         Harmful land-use practices

·         Including urban and agricultural runoff and water pollution

This can harm reefs by encouraging excess algal growth.
