move south so they can plant crops and find food was just tap. floods and droughts will climate change become the main driver of mass migration you can write any apocalyptic scenarios you want and probably more think. the climate exodus starts if thirty years on t w. you know. steve barrett is a british fish and his boat is small by industry standards under ten meters long barrett knows what he does not want in his life the european union. if we walk away we can take back control of our territorial waters if we don t walk away because we do a deal the e.u. won t let us take back control. from our industry which they have to live by. the brits flint is one of germany s last deep sea fisherman. and his ship is fairly large forty metres long. flynn says that he no longer understands the british. he could have become not only god is that they can t take away our fish the best thing for if we don t get a sensible an organized flick they won t be good for us fisherman frauds the thoughts of. your cat that are where you where your. majesty desiccate sent grew up on the north sea coast his grandfather was a fisherman and always had this talismanic on his boat. effective at the top of a. i like to be out on the water i just can t resist a thought that when i was younger i had another career in mind but that didn t work out for the sea kept calling me back out here you re your own boss and it s up to you to find the fish i think it has something to do with the thrill of the tricks with young people was the song. flint knows this business inside out. this monitor shows him where the fish are clinton his crew sail the north sea between norway and scotland the fish move around the region depending on the season they don t pay any attention to international borders. but the question is will the north sea remain open to fishing that s by no means certain. flinty sides when and where the crew will put out the nets if he finds a good spot they can take in as many as two tonnes of fish in just twenty minutes. but even while flint is on the job he often worries about the consequences that bracks it could have not only for him but also for british fisherman. if i speak to the net a bit after the billy fish go i don t know how they re going to manage their economy so that they can sell fish but of course they can keep it for themselves. i have no idea what s going to happen if they leave the e.u. in the. us if they make a mess of the bricks that processed it s going to cause a lot of problems with regard to your market i think. this is the town of ramsgate on britain s south east coast. many of the local residents support breck s that. steve barrett is headed for his small fishing boat the razor bill. he shares for. flints passion for the sea and fishing but that s about all they have in common. beret works by himself he has no crew some days he has a good catch and others he doesn t barack blames the e.u. for this situation. nearly three years ago he and some other fishermen sailed up the thames river to show their support for bracks it. went ashore if if you. were to have it. we went fishing we call faith we landed it. it s gradually got worse and worse as the years have gone on in the here is the culture fish as if that s more more restriction. surely. of what we think. the paperwork and the legislation. i want to say to be a fisherman. all got paperwork will go fairly well there are going i m going to fish . a struggle of food with a co-writer of in. the water. barrett doesn t come from a fishing family when he was younger he worked as a bank clerk but once when he was on a sailing trip the sea captured his imagination and he s been out here ever since. it s been his life for the last forty years and he makes a living by fishing barely. today there aren t many fish in his nets. that s also bad news for the seagulls who are following him most british fisherman are like barratt they have small boats and stay close to the coast. and like his colleagues barrett believes that the e.u. s fishing policies are ridiculous i forgot to say let s try your quota for cause. i got to say look at forged on the soles. of us some tecate on some b.i.g. feet i was so. and a hundred fifty kids i would call it or i have to put the clock back to have my closet. door so i started say because i take a lot of help and it s not enough. so i catch another i kick a guy was a soldier in the one hundred fifty trail out called up and called the good looking men company because i hope coal one hundred fifty level felt just enough to fight the wind. as steve barrett returns to ramsgate with empty nets fritz flint is sailing along the coast of norway. his trawler belongs to the german company put a fish it s the last german owns deep sea fishing fleet. today the crew had been pulling their nets through the north sea for about three hours at a depth of one hundred and twenty metres and now it s time to find out the size of his haul. with. today s catch is made up mostly of cod and monkfish. actually flint was hoping to find some pollock but they re obviously somewhere else today. because it s got a solution as you know this is all crap. i found a site on the screen and it looked promising as it has the fish like to gather an old drilling boreholes but there s absolutely nothing there right now just a few miles away we thought we might have a good day. as this is just bad luck. just took up for lessons. in. today s catch wasn t. disappointment. the crew doesn t seem to mind though. they ll try again tomorrow. night at the somewhat of a fun we ll just have to go farther out into you waters maybe toward scotland will try to find a good spot. to. britain s territorial waters are just one hundred sixty nautical miles away and flint knows that once they arrive there they ll have a good catch. but steve barrett can t cover that kind of distance and his small boat he stays within the twelve mile zone around ramsgate. bird says that he s getting a lot of tough competition from foreign fishing trawlers and he doesn t think that s fair at all. they seem to have a very very unfair advantage where they come from quote from an area like a fish off into a bigger part of. the argument you can fish out war for the out of the way for sure doesn t apply to me because it s too far but in short the whole right i mean sure flaked. when it comes to brecht s it barrett says the harder the better fishermen in denmark spain france and germany have been worried about how hard bracks it would affect them particularly if britain closed its territorial waters to them. if splint can t fish off scotland anymore he ll be in trouble. just kind of got you by next year we could be spending eighty percent of our time over there with us and who is with us but if they shut it down it will be a raw deal for us. this is the german north sea port of play mahasen a city that has experienced. firsthand the decline of the country s fishing industry since the one nine hundred seventy s. . here at the institute a government research facility economist duelling has spent the past two years studying how breck s it might affect germany s fishing fleet. is coming from extreme fire. in the worst case scenario britain would shut us out and we d have to find our quotas of fish elsewhere. or don t use in their stockroom but british waters are where the fish are. there for her other locations just don t have the quantity and even if they did it would be a lot more expensive to fish there that could lead to a situation where german ships could lose one hundred percent of the catch for a particular species. and i wish them a pretty you know with. so bracks it could have devastating consequences for european fleets that fish off the british coast. dealing explains why the north sea fishing grounds are so important. with this. it s one of our most productive maritime areas of. the north sea it s rich in fish resources or because the rivers that feed into it provide a lot of nutrients and interest almost one hundred percent of some commercial species are caught here. like herring for example a popular food in germany herring prefer to stay in british waters in late summer and autumn they tend to gather around northern scotland and the shetland islands but this area is inside the two hundred miles oh now the u.k. wants to keep for itself after brags that. this is the town of sasson it s on the german baltic island of google. factories here process fifty thousand tonnes of herring every year and eighty percent of the catch comes from the north sea. people who work at those factories are keeping a close eye on fishing industry negotiations between britain and the e.u. . for those who say. the real problem now is that we might not have a decision on fishing access for twenty nineteen so we won t be able to catch herring in the british zone. it s herring fishing season right now in the baltic the ships deliver their catch for processing but it s not enough to meet consumer demand if the british zone in the north sea is closed to foreign ships the processing plants in just minutes and the crews that supply them will be hard hit. they re trying to figure out what they ll do if that happens. the herring however will stay in british waters. or you will just have to fish in the e.u. zone in the north sea along with our partners who supply us with herring would be from. dozens probably most are but the fact of the matter is that you can find dense concentrations of herring only near the british coast what about the. supplies of fresh fish from the north sea arrive at the processing plants every day usually by truck via denmark. two hundred fifty jobs at this facility depend on a regular supply of herring. the fish are gutted phil laid and pickled and then shipped to supermarkets. at this point everything here is going smoothly but the threat of a breck s of boycott has made the one. workers here nervous. so efficient if i need to visit course things are sort of uncertain right now. and some people are really worried. so much the money i ve lived and worked on and we re going for fourteen years. i ve got a house here. but i don t know what s going to happen within the next few months. inspire more nikita s also inverted. and it s not just the workers at the processing plants who are worried people throughout the town of sas nets are concerned as well. the fish factories are a key element of the local economy and if the supply of herring runs low because of breck s it the downturn could affect the entire community. european fishing policies are hammered out here in brussels. we asked to talk to someone at the european commission about the bracks it situation but they declined our request for an interview. they said it s a touchy subject right now. experts are working on a wide variety of options and. the staff have been compiling reports and passing them around to members and. since the commission wouldn t talk to us we decided to interview some european members of parliament and . then our cool one is the deputy chairman of parliament s committee on fisheries policy and. some british any peas are here today and they include some bracks its supporters. on the labor party there are colleagues from the british labor party are you the conservatives and you can t. sometimes one group blames the others for the braggs at mass. the fisheries committee and the e.u. commission have been debating emergency response measures to bracks that. the discussions show clearly that the situation in the north sea fishery is enormously complex. for example the european fisheries and marine fund would have to be restructured and we consider financial support for the possible decommissioning of fishing vessels one for survive. but of course we want to negotiate a new trade deal with britain as quickly as possible. there are spanish and dutch crewmembers on board british fishing vessels highly skilled crew. and they re an important part of the team. some people get really emotional about that situation. and it s getting a lot of attention. but the whole. we re now in the scottish town of peterhead a thriving port on the north sea coast one third of all the fish imported by the u.k. moves through peterhead. if the fishing industry is booming anywhere in britain it s here. we met several foreign workers here and even came across a german citizen and they all earn their living by catching processing or transporting fish. close tesh deliver supplies the fish every day from the port of peterhead to aberdeen about forty kilometers south he says that just the threat of bracks it has disrupted the local economy. and other prices in the shops keep going up and if britain lead to the e.u. will be ruined that for your own if you earn just enough to pay my bills you know i can t put any money aside but i still earn the same. but things keep getting more expensive but it s getting an awful awful awful. seventy six idealogues. the local fish industry may be booming but the workers are definitely not any better off one reason for that is the weak british pound which makes imports more expensive at the same time a weak pound makes u.k. fish exports less expensive so demand from e.u. countries is up. seventy five percent of those exports go to the european union. peterhead fish depot is one of the largest in europe the entire facility was recently expanded with some financial support from the e.u. more than eight thousand crates of locally caught fish arrive here every day. the fishermen and the processors want to keep this valuable resource for themselves. we continually have said that is a huge drop of to an opportunity for for the u.k. to be called. a sovereign state again and be in control of it s what else the us is not about. european counterparts to fish this is about rebuilding control who and when they fish and. we have an island nation with a very fish which fishing grounds and therefore is a no or best interests as a united kingdom that we monitor and control that store. so if britain leaves the e.u. it will be able to keep more of its fish because the europeans will be locked out of its waters a lot of people in peterhead say that s a good idea we don t have enough. in the course because out. in the decors it s exhausted over a few months and you have to go and buy your fish rent fish. boyfriends from other e.u. countries deficient i don t want us i think if you like that we should get on board to get another we should be and not think we should be in a different way with it. but that s very very a force for people to be ahead because he was doing believe john forty eight all of us to or want was dumping on the site for sure going to see why they should be. these figures show how the total catch is divided one third is caught by british fisherman. vessels take about half of it these quotas are outlined in the european union s common fisheries policy. but if you look at the economic value of the fish that are caught britain takes in almost half of the proceeds european fishermen get only about forty percent want to come over here on the border kerger if they think they are serious fish fish. fish are profitable for the u.k. and especially for scotland still the fishing industry accounts for less than one percent of britain s gross domestic product. but they also know how to make their voice heard in government that s why london has sent a top rex official to peterhead for talks of seafood consumption is your start ripping ok so we need it again when it becomes clear to me button is the founder and owner of the amity fish company. and before he moved into management but and spent decades at sea as a fisherman he says the industry wants more investment security and jobs. he also wants the government to encourage people to eat more british fish and to promote fish exports to asia. right now. the port of peterhead and the fish factories provide around ten thousand jobs . it takes a lot of people to process all that fish. competing companies in iceland or norway now use machines to do much of this work. in any case but in hopes that the industry will be able to grow even further after breakfast. i suggested not a huge opportunity for us to grow in this type of business because of the stuff was more raw material available then there was more opportunity for a business like press to be spotted and therefore the smaller ones to come up to this level so there was a huge opportunity both for people on for business on the box but exit. jimmy behind has been speaking out in favor of rex and for the past two years he believes that if britain leaves the e.u. the u.k. fishing industry will still be able to export a lot of its catch to europe. as we ve said seventy percent goes to e.u. countries right now and but one hopes that will continue. the market is the people the market is we ve got a product we ve got a buyer and if if if the product is at the right price and the right quality that is the market no politics somehow in and of planes in between and votes with coles the flexion but can we get the product we ve got people who want to eat quality seafood so we should stop the politics out of it and we will get on absolutely fantastic i think. that sounds good but the e.u. says common fisheries policy is not based on track matic capitalism and that was a deliberate decision. if britain were to ban european fishing boats from its territorial waters the e.u. would likely find a way to retaliate c p seventy five seventy five eighty eighty five on the part of. certain fishing areas are closed to the european fleet but on the e.u. could impose an embargo on fish and fish products from britain. in the all powerful new on franklin doesn t come from a poll that sounds like something that president trump would do. you know fellow but we re talking here about exports that are worth a total of one point three billion euros to get food for. that s pretty tough talk but international trade is a tough business it s all about supply and demand but britain s fishing industry does not supply the kind of fish that british consumers demand. eighty percent of the fish that britons prefer to eat is concentrated in just five species . those fish are not found inside the british zone so they have to be imported. there are more than ten thousand fish and chip shops in the u.k. . cod used to be the fish of choice at these shops but now stocks of cod in british waters have fallen off sharply so they use substitutes. for paper now like the ground or fish and chips i don t know what they re in or if they re old accordion fire water white way of fish and chips i don t know caught harmonically it s not local we re not lending it luckily. steve barrett makes a point of eating his fish and chips at a restaurant that makes them with cod. chef mark way is frying some fish right now but it probably came from norway not britain. so u.k. fishermen catch a lot of species that people in their own country don t eat and that won t change after breakfast at. breakfast supporters in the fishing industry have suffered some setbacks in recent months. and it won t be easy to close british waters to european ships. but jimmy buchan is standing his ground. we do not share the oil and guts with. bots so why should we share the first two and photos these are young it s not that simple or even if britain is no longer governed by e.u. fisheries policy for international treaties will still apply across like the un convention on the law of the sea that law bludgers coastal states to regulate fish stocks that are managed jointly or that are found in more than one zone so britain and the e.u. would have to hammer out a new agreement on how to share the catch to funk because. the more you talk to steve barrett the more you realize that his hopes for a better future are fading and his doubts about the british government s ability to protect his interests are growing. which is whole feel that we ve been let down and. the only real thing that s come out of it is. or don t think if i live to be honored for free i would never ever trust a politician again. barack is disappointed even angry. but his german colleague fritz flint hopes that things will turn out all right. he wants to be able to fish anywhere in the north sea subject to international quota agreements of course since he loves his job and he d like to keep his crew employed . but deep down he wishes that things could just go back to the way they were. not just with the picks i think the best thing would be for britain to just forget about leaving the e.u. for the believer my crew and i are happy with the way things are now to fight for us there are no negatives. i think they should just work out in a. remember this is not the ivy was not called bless us. at this point it s still not clear how the breaks a drama will play out but one thing is certain rex it will not solve the problems of the north sea fishing industry. after. kicked off. can shackle still avoid relegation to draw in north america has fans fearing the worst . can t last still qualify for the champions league at the end how no will to keep on

bathers around the world. when it starts with a crime after an electric shock then a burning feeling in the game or. are there numbers in the world s oceans increasing. you have to have an insane reproductive capacity as a single jellyfish like this can produce 15000 eggs a day. is this punishment for mankind s irresponsible actions. are oceans are not well and jellyfish seem to be benefiting the explosion of the population just the unspoken. the journey fish express the rescue money as a warning sign. the scientists the world over are studying jellyfish they hope to discover the secrets of jellyfish the medusas of the scene and their laboratories. and. these are the waters off the coast of japan where back in 2002 something changed. a swarm of the moros jellyfish appeared veritable giants with a diameter of 2 meters. numerous jellyfish with tentacles as thick as macaroni look like something from outer space not much is known about their life cycle. german scientist cornelia ja spreaders meets shinichi away from japan. he s considered the leading expert of the international jellyfish scene. the aspers as a plankton expert and she wants to find out more about the giant jellyfish swarm in the sea of japan. they indicate that something is not right in the world s oceans. the eerie giant jellyfish invasions are putting japanese fishermen at risk. or professor way shows footage that looks like a scene from a horror film. when the the jedi fish comes in large numbers. their neck broken and the bruised and then the fisherman lose their huge money and it s very difficult for the fisherman to do the solution but that maybe the science will give . the cue to do it. we scientists know where the jelly fish come from and then they re where they are abundant so we will like to give such information to the fisherman as early as possible and. we discovered that the large swarms of jellyfish came from china. coastal waters there have been heavily impacted by human activity. china sea is over fished and polluted. from their currency transport the 200 kilogram heavy jellyfish to the japanese coast. barcelona. experts are meeting at the jellyfish blooms symposium. the international scientists are studying the seemingly unstoppable growth of the marine animals. but it remains an exotic research field. and not many marine biologists choose to specialize in jellyfish. is the current explosion in jellyfish numbers linked to human activity backplane an expert cornea ya spurs in a colleague s discuss the issue at the symposium. jasa birds has a good international connections and she s hoping to find new orleans. during her stay in barcelona she visits josep maria. the aquariums in his lab contain dozens of species of different ages. jellyfish have inhabited our world s oceans for over 600000000 years. for decades scientists overlooks jellyfish in fact creatures were actively avoided. by want to have jellyfish were typically ignored in research now they re attracting a lot of attention because there are now harbors and close to our beaches people are noticing that there are a lot more jellyfish than before really define it but sadly we don t have systematic long term data to answer our questions if i thought. jellyfish don t have a brain or a heart. they swim by contract. ting ring shaped muscles to create an underling motion that propels them forward their jelly matter bodies are kept together by 2 thin layers called epidermis and gastro dermis inside jellyfish have an essentially hollow space which is their gastro vascular cavity prey is guided from the tentacles by arms through the stomach tube and into the interior. experts are discovering more and more of these animals remarkable skills the moon jellyfish or alien or rita is found in all the 7 seas and can form huge swarms gilly is especially worried by one mediterranean species the prologue to luca which glows in the dark. a pretty much the biggest problem with the luca comes from its impact on the entire marine ecosystem. they re predators they eat zooplankton and fish. but they re also a problem for humans. currents and when you bring them together in large swarms around our beaches contact with our skin causes severe burns. well the beaches have had to be repeatedly closed as a result. of places. it beats as one of spain s islands. this is where bartolomé madi tour was a tour salo work their volunteers with the spanish civil protection office. they regularly visit the monitored beaches to determine the number of jellyfish incidents. nobody here can predict when this morning s occur. i think it is the big we moved in early may we had a veritable jellyfish invasion in the sea. on the beaches. this since then it s been quiet. according to our lifeguards we ve been having no more than 3 jellyfish incidents per day with some of us hoping it will stay that way for the next season as well if you money but on a popsicle. his colleague has a picture from the spring on his mobile. this is what a real jellyfish invasion in a pizza looks like. there or if you could be a shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo. the jellyfish could show up at any time. jellyfish have one of the most toxic and differentiated cellular mechanisms in the animal kingdom lining their tentacles stinging cells. on contact they inject toxin into their victims. first it feels like a crime now but after an electric shock and then the boat this give a little bit of that s why it s better to stay in the water because it s cooler. if you go out into the sun it burns and hurts much more. you should call a jellyfish right away. but you know because it. knows what he s talking about. he was stung by jellyfish just recently. he and his lifeguard colleagues swear by their 1st aid measure salt water with baking powder mixed in. not fresh water because that would fuel the activity of the venomous capsules. the mix is always at hand at their observation post. if they stay i will find out that you know is that what this is so water with baking soda if you like it s better than vinegar i m a breaking soda is alkaline or neutralize is the toxins in the jellyfish tentacles it when just the mom lifts and lessens the pain and yet the bottle that leave yes it s death you know that. jellyfish. sure not just a danger to humans in northern ireland they killed some 100000 salmon. an ocean current had carried the swarm to the salmon farm pushing millions of mob stingers into the cages. jellyfish even cause power outages. when those gen officious coming in swarms there are blocking our cooling system. nuclear power plant in southern sweden was forced to shut down on the weekend after large amounts of jelly fish clocked up the pipes curing cooling water to deter banks. as i don t like that have given jellyfish a bad image because some scientists exploit this saying jellyfish a bad by nature and that we have a real problem but that doesn t take into account that jellyfish populations always also lies there a year is when there are lots of jellyfish and he is when there are barely any that s normal for jellyfish and this is not my this is for trying to help me. cornelli our youngsters wants to find out the truth about jellyfish. she s been researching around the world for years. and because i have to hunt my professor had mentioned small animals that could reproduce within 24 hours and that really sparked my interest i asked him about them and he said i should join a trip across the indian ocean to research the significance in the world s oceans. i said yes and joined and that s how i became fascinated by them. jellyfish get transported to europe in the ballast water of large container ships. for nearly a yacht spurs who s from hamburg has been observing the introduced species for almost 10 years. and not just in kiel on the baltic where she s currently worked. their population is growing dramatically a present as it is late summer. she can spot several jellyfish from the jetty. it s worth visiting these marine creatures under the surface. the search doesn t take long as expected they can be found on mars around the jetty . it s called the warty coleman jelly or sea walnut and strictly speaking it s not a jellyfish. this creature doesn t have stinging cells unlike true jellyfish. this is why you aspers can touch them. the scientist has specialized in home joe in. their natural home is the atlantic of the east coast of the u.s. . or naylor yeah spruce has established that this species is extremely adaptable and can reproduce at lightning speed. that is that since they have no food competitors here they can grow incredibly large take this one for example it s 6070 millimeters if you just take the body a specimen like this produces 15000 exposure day that can fertilize themselves we have to keep an eye on them although the salt content in the central baltic is too low for them but it s a super habitat for reproducing. the port of kiel on the baltic is the starting point for scientific expeditions all around the world. helmholtz center for ocean research is well known among researchers. ya spurs was previously at the institute for aquatic resources at the technical university of denmark. in 2006 marine biologists discovered the imported cone jelly species in the baltic. that was a shock. in the mediterranean the population had exploded and also caused huge damage to the black sees ecosystem. how quickly can the warty come jelly conquer its new habitat. is it a threat to the baltic to at 1st glance their fascinatingly beautiful. the a comb jellies shimmer and all the colors of the rainbow. under the microscope it becomes clear why. light refracts in all the spectral colors in the tiny transparent discs with which the animal moves around. but yeah springs has made a frightening discovery. the migrants can cope so well with local conditions that it s not just the adults that are reproducing but the young ones as well. under ideal conditions in the lab a freshly hatched larva begins langue eggs and only a few days. first team spent months counting and observing to find out just how many eggs such larvae can produce. the oscars has shown that the ability of the warty calm jelly to reproduce rapidly wherever it likes the conditions is largely linked to the species particular reproductive qualities. as alice isn t a nice species it doesn t belong here so it s important that we keep an eye on it so we know how it s developing and whether it s taking over the ecosystem. that would be disastrous. the baltic is home to fish such as cod and herring which are important for the fish market. are the warty come jellies eating their young. cornelia aspers performs an experiment to find out. she gives the jellyfish caught eggs larvae for food. the jellyfish doesn t eat the fish eggs and spit them out again. the opposite happens to the very young cod babies. the combe jelly laps them up. bringing up this kind of taken a to fish lava but mostly just those that is still in the yolk center they don t actively swim yet the others are to mobile can get away from the jellyfish arms into the vehicle and coming up to 7. this means the warty come jelly s could be dangerous. onboard the danish research vessel donna biologist bastone hoover conducts a jellyfish census 4 times a year. are they posing a threat to the eggs and larvae of herring and cod. and it was both could be in there and these jellyfish is a natural habitat along the east coast of north and south america they are notorious for eating fish eggs and larvae fish i only laughing based on this of that s why we were worried when we 1st discovered this species back in 2007 here around for home because this is the main spawning area for baltic cod. this last office. planted nets saved. the water column from the surface to just above the sea bed. if this is a net is called a bongo net because it looks like a bongo drum. we use this larger one mainly to capture fish eggs and larvae fish love into found. this one catches all kinds of zooplankton and the baby bongo captures very small organisms. and jellyfish are caught by all of the nets. and i don t need to go find. the captain of the down a is setting the course for the night. to be able to compare the results long term bastiaan who have their heads to the same coordinates each time. if we zoom in again we can see the islands of gone home and fame on our bases are more in the eastern area. i thought we d start with the transact in the our kona basin and then we ll work our way over. to the research ship will travel along the set g.p.s. coordinates for several nights. captured zooplankton gathers and a catch back at the end of the net. and. the main thing we re interested in is how many jellyfish we have in the samples and how many fish eggs and larvae fish loving. the data has set course on the next spacek. meanwhile goober tends to his catch. a school of sticklebacks is basting on the zooplankton that he has yet to count. they have to be removed 1st. for. under the microscope the different species of zooplankton can be identified. tiny co parts along with fish eggs and larvae prey for jellyfish. and at every station a measuring probe is lowered into the water. this determines the oxygen and salt content along with the temperature. vertical profile of the environmental data appears on who their screen of the graphs indicates salty oxygen rich layers. it seems water from the north sea has found its way to the eastern baltic through the channels that suggests that the warty come jellies came here on this salt water current is here as well as i have said so at the moment we don t believe this jellyfish has had a big impact on the fish populations here in the eastern baltic because it hasn t appeared on mass anywhere for coming today it will. also be a minute dition the jellyfish doesn t show up during the main cod spawning season. like say that those bosses. so no reason for concern. for nearly a youngsters disagree. because the warty come jelly s came to europe into migration waves. the ones that appeared for the 1st time down here in the black sea a rich and i did from the gulf of mexico he got from mexico well him being the animals we have up here in the baltic they ve come from boston woods home that area . that s been proved genetically and means that these were 2 completely distinct invasions. so what would happen if the warty come jellies from the black sea were introduced into the baltic killa come here they are found in large numbers in the southwest and baltic and in the kattegat between denmark and sweden but they haven t conquered the majority of the baltic. if we can show that the southern spacings has a different genetic repertoire and can cope with the lowest salt content then if the sudden ones transferred north that could be a threat on the other hand we don t know what would happen if the southern and northern jellies were brought together we could get super potent hybrids or we could get hybrids that can t reproduce it s a very exciting question that s really significant for the future of the baltic. but i don t. the scientist is bringing 40 come jellies from america the black sea and the baltic together in the lab. over the next few years she ll carry out an evolutionary and breeding experiments funded by the e.u. s marie curie truck ram and the danish council for independent research for natural sciences. the plankton

form was it seemed to stimulate an efficient scale. beautiful organism a bit like flowers of the sea with their shape and tentacles and their almost lace like you. might find them very pretty with a sort of zen way of life. q one this is the biz then. anyone who speaks that positively about jellyfish must have a reason. the location of his office for example. it s from here that he decides whether it s worth capturing a few of his research objects. today is a good day. stinger is the dominant species of the mediterranean. needs a few for his experiments in the laboratory. so let me. just terrible as people think. they ve been at home in the world s oceans for more than 600000000 years sometimes they re there in great abundance sometimes there are just a few of them but they always play an important role as predators in the ocean and they could be useful to us humans so we shouldn t think of them as being terrible even if there are sometimes too many of them we have to learn to live with them and occasionally use them. he. has an unusual idea. he sucks up large quantities of slime released by the mob sting or when it s lange its eggs and the moon jellyfish when it stressed. fills the slime into test tubes. then he injects water polluted with nano particles into the jellyfish line. here. the result the jellyfish slime causes the nano particles to clump together thus cleaning the polluted water . at the prison and there are more and more nano particles these days in creams for example factories producing these nano particles must dispose of their waste water without polluting the environment. the jellyfish slime can be used to collect and gather all these nano particles into a bowl so that they can be gotten rid of easily in a low cost and environmentally friendly way. could this rescue the jellyfish its reputation. of being a host is also seeking to understand jellyfish is dual potential on the north sea island the public well known for decades she s been researching the reproduction strategy of skip rizzo a more true jellyfish she s being helped by divers from the alfred begun to institute the team is going out to look for jellyfish polyps are very easy it is see them if there are a lot of them of course looking for tentacles that move to and fro around corals is a good way to spot them they prefer to live on the underside of substrates which means you should always look from below that will give you a better chance of finding them. there are 5 north sea species floating under the ship apart from them aphrodite compass jellyfish all the species have males and females. the sperm is released into the water and taken in by the females who carry the eggs. the fertilized eggs then turn into jelly fish larva or plan ulip. the true jellyfish then release these plan you lay into the ocean. thanks to tiny filaments the plan you are stays afloat until it comes across a smooth solid surface on to which it can attach itself. once settled the plan eula develops into a polyp. under very specific conditions these polyps will release many little jellyfish called a fire a. fire up grow into full sized medusa s. and then the cycle starts afresh. it s an extremely effective reproductive strategy. polyps can survive for several years on the hard ground that the divers are to search. they don t have a skeleton so sandy soil moving around them would break them down that s why they need a hard substrate where they can settle safely sandy soil is no good to them or. something wouldn t try we re introducing hard substrate sim places where they used to be only sand in the shape of platforms or rigs for example. meaning where increasing the places with a plan you can settle and develop into polyps and produce jellyfish i once went to an. offshore facilities are being built all over the world to satisfy our huge energy demands. the massive structures provide new underwater settlement areas for the polyps. even shipping markers have been colonized along with concrete harbor structures and breakwaters. a dive along this wall reveals just how popular a famous structures are for marine inhabitants. every square centimeter is occupied. this diver is trying to find the polyps in this jungle on the harbors sheet piling . she takes a sample from a likely location. on her way back colleagues bumps into a lion s mane jelly fish. fortunately he s wearing a full face mask otherwise he would have been badly stuck the other hawk but i hope it s a female with love and so we can have a slav and race politics in the lab then we can study the polyps and find out when they produce jellyfish and on to what conditions. so they can fight and be if you don t find could see it on the definitely not. going to run off the top. of. the jellyfish in the sample are taken to the lab. environmental conditions in the sea are changing. and. the reason is climate change. the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations is warming our atmosphere. the ocean absorbs the heat. in the north sea alone and encrease of 1.7 degrees celsius has been measured global warming was also a subject of the jellyfish bloom symposium in barcelona. yes present host meet jennifer purcell she s been researching the dynamic between jellyfish populations and their policies for the past 40 years. when you give them higher temperatures they produce more jellyfish. dramatically more jellyfish than they do in the cooler waters. increasing air pollution as a result of industry and traffic is leaving its mark. there is too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since the industrial revolution the world s oceans have absorbed half of the carbon dioxide. the gas dissolves in the oceans reducing their ph values and. our oceans are becoming more acidic. all organisms with a calcium based skeleton are in danger because the acidic water dissolves limestone . jellyfish don t have a scale and therefore the acidification of the oceans isn t a problem for them they survive. jennifer herself describes further negative effects. the high amount of fertilizer used in agriculture leads to nutrients getting into the oceans via groundwater rivers. this causes phytoplankton blooms. tiny algae which form huge carpets as can be seen from space. vegetable fodder produces all the more zooplankton. it s made up of microscopically small animals and fish larvae. this is what jellyfish feed on allowing them to reproduce in great numbers this is causing you trophic conditions with loss of nutrients in the water it leads to low oxygen levels and. jellyfish are very tolerant of those conditions. at the same time the fishing industry has depleted fish populations and fish are the main food competitors of jellyfish. fishing in the baltic and the danish research boat down a. even a cursory glance tells the scientists that there are too few female caught able to spawn. they ve been overfished by the baltic fishing fleets. the danes are counting on behalf of the international council for the exploration of the sea which monitors $110.00 fish species around the world. their data is included in the annual recommendation for e.u. fishing quotas. for. both the young fish and in the small schooling fishes like herring are eating the so plankton the little tiny animals swim around in the water so both of those are being consumed by jellyfish and fish then you re taking away the fish so that leaves more food for the jellyfish to eat. back on how the gold and sabina host is on her way to the lab the breakwaters made of tetrapods like a red carpet with a jellyfish larvae she finds plastic rubbish on the beach. millions of tonnes of plastic waste find their way into the oceans around the world . currents keep the plastic adrift in the water for a long time and they too are welcome settlements for polyps. in the lab post examines the sample brought in by the divers. she finds what she was expecting. there amongst the algae barnacles and moss animals of the branching jellyfish polyps of the anthem a doozy of. chemical and biological institute has been sending a monitoring boat out to sea almost daily since 1962. it is one of the longest running long term marine data collection programs. the scientists collect water and plankton samples. if environmental conditions change could impact the composition of the ocean plankton a change jellyfish might benefit from this and that we know that jellyfish polyps are very resistant to changes in the environment and that means that the polyps survive environmental conditions that other organisms cannot believe that this man needs to believe in. the atlantic. this across a sea which is situated far off the coast of north america. danish research vessel donna was on a deal expedition. nearly a aspers does not agree with the negative image jellyfish have together with an international team of maritime biologists plankton experts she wants to prove they play an enormously important role in the food chain for. ample for the endangered european ill parts of hi everyone is surprised that evil is becoming more expensive meals are actually at risk of extinction one possible connection that nobody is really making is that jellyfish could be a potential building block in the food chain without them we might have no more ills to wait and you wouldn t stand up to comp kind of. the net for catching deal larvae is raised from a depth of 250 meters. the 1st glance proves that there are many species of gelatinous plankton organisms here. amongst them the scientists discover the mysterious ill larvae that hatch here in the sargasso sea. one this size wouldn t survive in an aqua culture because nobody knows what these baby eels eat. that s why no one has ever been able to breed european eels. the multi net is lifted on board. it gathers samples from several depths between 0 and 400 meters. plankton experts cornelia aspers skills are needed. after hours of rinsing counting classifying. it becomes clear which organisms contribute to the food chain out here. see. yet finding its plan we catch small and cut them open we remove the stomach and use molecular methods to determine what they eat jellyfish don t have skeletons as a result they get digested immediately that makes it really hard to use normal methods like microscopes to find traces of such organisms but now we have molecular methods so that we can find out what gelatinous organisms are in the stomachs. we also examine which gelatinous organisms are in the water. and then hopefully we can match the 2 puzzle maybe bidens on some maps or. do evil larvae eat jellyfish. proving that is difficult. the meticulous counting job on board is only the 1st step for the researchers. analyzing the data will take several years only then will the results be ready for publication. are jellyfish voter for the fish we eat establishing that would be a breakthrough for science. and the key not just for saving the european deal but also other endangered fish species. the jellyfish blooms symposium is an important event for exchange between scientists. jellyfish research is still in its infancy. and uniform research methods as have been established in fishery biology are lacking. i think it s a really nice sign that there are so many young people involved now that s a very positive sign and so is there a lot of postcards and a mass of students involved but that means that there s an interest and growing interest and that is what has been looking into past years i think we. seeing the 2 final twi there is some growing population some point on the planet we have a lot of and occasions about of course it needs longest 3 days they decay to its treaties or even very strong experimental studies that falls a moment to feel lacking and there is a lot of money touring issues money touring programs that are started that need to be continued to air 80 understand what is going on. what s clear is that the macdougall are an important indicator of the decline of the oceans. a problem caused by humans. of course the jellyfish has no words to say they re human beings but the explosion of their population is just the unspoken language. that the fish the jedi fused expressed to us human beings as a warning sign. the mysterious world of jellyfish they ve been around for over 600000000 years making them the oldest marine inhabitants on our planet so far there has never been a jellyfish takeover but the creatures unusual

there are many of them and they can be dangerous. a few are even deadly to humans. and they ve terrified bathers around the world. when it starts with a crime after an electric shock and then a burning feeling we. are their numbers in the world s oceans increasing. and we have to have an insane reproductive capacity as a single jellyfish like this can produce $15000.00. is this punishment for mankind s irresponsible actions. our oceans are not well and jellyfish seem to be benefiting the explosion of their population just the unspoken. the jelly fish expressed to us human beings as a warning sign. scientists the world over are studying jellyfish they hope to discover the secrets of jellyfish the medusas of the sea and their laboratories. and. these are the waters off the coast of japan where back in 2002 something changed. a swarm of the moros jellyfish appeared veritable giants with a diameter of 2 meters. numerous jellyfish with tentacles as they cause macaroni look like something from outer space not much is known about their life cycle. german scientist cornelia ja sprues meets shinichi way from japan. he s considered the leading expert of the international jellyfish scene. the aspers as a plankton expert and she wants to find out more about the giant jellyfish swarms in the sea of japan. they indicate that something is not right in the world s oceans. the eerie giant jellyfish invasions are putting japanese fishermen at risk. or professor way shows footage that looks like a scene from a horror film. when the the jedi fish comes in large numbers. they are neck broken and the bruises and then the fisherman lose their huge money and it s very difficult for the fisherman to do the solution but that may be the science will give some. cute to do it. we scientists know where the jellyfish come from and then they re where they are abundant so we will like to give such information to the fisherman as early as possible. we discovered that a large swarms of jellyfish came from china. and coastal waters there have been heavily impacted by human activity. that china sea is overfished and polluted. from their currency transport the 200 kilogram heavy jellyfish to the japanese coast. barcelona. experts are meeting at the jellyfish blooms symposium. the international scientists are studying the seemingly unstoppable growth of the marine animals. but it remains an exotic research field. and not many marine biologists and choose to specialize in jellyfish. is the current explosion in jellyfish numbers linked to human activity actor. playing an expert cornea gaspar s in a colleague s discuss the issue at the symposium. birds has good international connections and she s hoping to find new orleans. during her stay in barcelona she visits josep maria kelly. the aquariums in his lab contain dozens of species of different ages. the. jellyfish have inhabited our world s oceans for over 600000000 years. for decades scientists overlooked jellyfish in fact creatures were actively avoided. by what had happened jellyfish were typically ignored in research now they re attracting a lot of attention because there are now harbors and close to our beaches people are noticing that there are a lot more jellyfish than before really if i may but sadly we don t have systematic long term data to answer our questions like if i thought. jellyfish don t have a brain or a heart. they swim by contrasts. the ring shaped muscles to create an underlining motion that propels them forward their jelly matter bodies are kept together by 2 thin layers called epidermis and gastro dermis inside jellyfish have an essentially hollow space which is their gastro vascular cavity prey is guided from the tentacles by arms through the stomach tube and into the interior. experts are discovering more and more of these animals remarkable skills the moon jellyfish or alien or rita is found in all the 7 seas and can form huge swarms gilly is especially worried by one mediterranean species the palagi not to look up which glows in the dark. and. the biggest problem with the janata luca comes from its impact on the entire marine ecosystem and they re predators they eat zooplankton and fish. but they re also a problem for humans. currents and when you bring them together in large swarms around our beaches contact with our skin causes severe burns. well beaches have had to be repeatedly closed as a result. of climate. that pizza is one of spain s islands. this is where bartolomé madi tour jose tour salo work their volunteers with the spanish civil protection office. they regularly visit the monitored beaches to determine the number of jellyfish incidents. nobody here can predict when this morning s occur. i think it is the be not made we move in early may we had a veritable jellyfish invasion in this seat. on the beaches. but since then it s been quiet. according to our lifeguards we ve been having no more than 3 jellyfish incidents per day. just hoping it will stay that way for the next season as well if the money but on a practical. his colleague has a picture from the spring on his mobile. this is what a real jellyfish invasion in a pizza looks like. that or if you could be a fish issue solution. the jellyfish could show up at any time. jellyfish have one of the most toxic and differentiated cellular mechanisms in the animal kingdom lining their tentacles stinging cells. on contact they inject toxin into their victims. yes 1st it feels like a crime now but after an electric shock and then it does the boat this give a little bit of the that s why it s better to stay in the water because it s cooling. if you go out into the sun it burns and hurts much more. you should call a jellyfish right away. but he ll not because it. knows what he s talking about. he was stung by jellyfish just recently. he and his lifeguard colleagues swear by their 1st aid measure salt water with baking powder mixed in. not fresh water because that would fuel the activity of the venomous capsules. the mix is always at hand at their observation post. if they stay i was that s not it that what this is so water with baking soda and it s better than vinegar. and baking soda is alkaline or neutralizes the toxins in the jellyfish tentacles it when just the mom listen lessens the pain and yet the book that leave yes it s definitely been a bit of a. jellyfish. you re not just a danger to humans and northern ireland they killed some 100000 salmon. an ocean current had carried the swarm to the salmon farm pushing millions of stingers into the cages. jellyfish even cause power outages. when those gen officious coming in swarms there blocking our cooling system. nuclear power plant in southern sweden was forced to shut down on the weekend after large amounts of jelly fish clocked up the pipes curing cooling water to deter banks. as i don t like that have given jellyfish a bad image as some scientists exploit this saying jellyfish of bad by nature and that we have a real problem but that doesn t take into account the jellyfish populations always also lies there are years when there are lots of jellyfish and he is when there are barely any that s normal for jellyfish and this is not my this is for trying to help me. canary are ya spurs wants to find out the truth about jellyfish. she s been researching around the world for years. and because i have to hunt my professor had mentioned small animals that could reproduce within 24 hours and that really sparked my interest i asked him about them and he said i should join a trip across the indian ocean to research the significance in the world s oceans. i said yes and joined and that s how i became fascinated by them. jellyfish get transported to europe and the ballast water of large container ships . for nearly a yacht spurs who s from hamburg has been observing the introduced species for almost 10 years. and not just in kiel on the baltic where she s currently work. their population is growing dramatically a present as it is late summer. she can spot several jellyfish from the jetty. it s worth visiting these marine creatures under the surface. the search doesn t take long as expected they can be found on mars around the genny . it s called the warty comb jelly or sea walnut and strictly speaking it s not a jellyfish. this creature doesn t have stinging cells unlike true jellyfish. this is why ya spurs can touch them. listen test has specialized and comb gel in. their natural home is the atlantic the east coast of the u.s. . for nearly a year aspers has established that this species is extremely adaptable and can reproduce at lightning speed. matters that since they have no food competitors here they can grow incredibly large take this one for example it s $6070.00 millimeters if you just take the body a specimen like this produces $15000.00 eggs per day that can fertilize themselves we have to keep an eye on them although the salt content in the central baltic is too low for them but it s a super habitat for reproducing. the port of kiel on the baltic is the starting point for scientific expeditions all around the world. he goes gale mar helmholtz center for ocean research is well known among researchers. ya spurs was previously at the institute for aquatic resources at the technical university of denmark. in 2006 marine biologists discovered the imported cone jelly species in the baltic. that was a shock. in the mediterranean the population had exploded and also caused huge damage to the black c.z. ecosystem. how quickly can the warty come jelly conquer its new habitat. is it a threat to the baltic to at 1st glance their fascinatingly beautiful. the a comb jellies shimmer and all the colors of the rainbow. under the microscope it becomes clear why. light refracts in all the spectra colors in the tiny transparent discs with which the animal moves around. but yeah spears has made a frightening discovery. the migrants can cope so well with local conditions that it s not just the adults that are reproducing but the young ones as well. under ideal conditions in the lap of the brush lee hatched larva begins lang eggs and only a few days. yes burstein spent months counting and observing to find out just how many eggs such larvae can produce. the oscars has shown that the ability of the warty comb jelly to reproduce rapidly wherever it likes the conditions is largely linked to the species particular reproductive qualities. as as isn t a native species it doesn t belong here so it s important that we keep an eye on it so we know how it s developing and whether it s taking over the ecosystem. that would be disastrous. the baltic is home to fish such as cod and herring which are important for the fish market. are the warning home jellies eating their young. cornelia aspers performs an experiment to find out. she gives the jelly fish caught eggs larvae for food. jellyfish doesn t eat the fish eggs is put them out again. the opposite happens to the very young cod babies. the comb jelly laps them up. when you have this kind of taken a to fish lava but mostly just those that is still in the yolk side they don t actively swim yet the others are to mobile get away from the jellyfish arms into the vehicle issue and coming up to 7. this means the warty come jelly s could be dangerous. on board the danish research vessel donna biologist boss john cougar conducts a jellyfish census 4 times a year. are they posing a threat to the eggs and larvae of herring in cod. and it was supposed to be in there and these jellyfish is a natural habitat along the east coast of north and south america they are notorious for eating fish eggs and marking fish eye on the laughing rest of us have that s why we were worried when we 1st discovered this b.c. s back in 2007 here around born home because this is the main spawning area for baltic cod. this os that offers. plenty nets saved. the water column from the surface to just above the sea bed. is this is the net is called a bongo net because it looks like a bongo drum and. we use this larger one mainly to capture fish eggs and larvae fish love into found. this one catches all kinds of zooplankton and the baby bongo captures very small organisms. and jellyfish are caught by all of the nets. playing with. the captain of the down a is setting the course for the night. to be able to compare the results long term bastiaan who have their heads to the same coordinates each time only. if we zoom in again we can see the islands of gone home and fame on our bases are more in the eastern area. i thought we d start with the transact in the our kona basin and then we ll work our way over. the research ship will travel along the set g.p.s. coordinates for several nights. captured zooplankton gathers in a catch back at the end of the net. and. the main thing we re interested in is how many jelly fish we have in the samples and how many fish eggs and larvae and fish. the data has set course on the next spacek. meanwhile who have their tends to his catch. a school of sticklebacks is basting on the zooplankton that he has yet to count. they have to be removed 1st. from. under the microscope the different species of zooplankton can be identified. tiny co parts along with fish eggs and larvae prey for jellyfish. and at every station a measuring probe is lowered into the water. this determines the oxygen and salt content along with the temperature. vertical profile of the environmental data appears on who their screen of the graphs indicates salty oxygen rich layers. it seems water from the north sea house found its way to the eastern baltic through deep channels that suggests that the warty come jellies came here on this salt water current is here as far as i am says at the moment we don t believe this jellyfish has had a big impact on the fish populations here in the eastern baltic because it hasn t appeared on mass anywhere in the fall come to be. in a dish and the jellyfish doesn t show up during the main caught spawning season in the light side of this process. so no reason for concern. for nearly youngsters disagrees. because the water column jellies came to europe into migration waves. the ones that appeared for the 1st time down here in the black sea a rich night and from the gulf of mexico he often goes from mexico well him being the animals we have up here in the baltic they ve come from boston woods home that area. boston that s been proved genetically and means that these were 2 completely distinct invasions. so what would happen if the warty come jellies from the black sea were introduced into the baltic killa come here they are found in large numbers in the southwest and baltic and in the kattegat between denmark and sweden but they haven t conquered the majority of the baltic. if we can show that the southern spaces has a different genetic repertoire and can cope with the lowest salt content then if the sudden ones transferred north that could be a threat on the other hand we don t know what would happen if the southern and northern jellies were brought together we could get super potent hybrids or we could get hybrids that can t reproduce it s a very exciting question that s really significant for the future of the baltic. but i don t. the scientist is bringing 40 come jellies from america the black sea and the baltic together in the lab. over the next few years she ll carry out evolutionary and breeding experiments funded by the e.u. as marie curie program and the danish council for independent research for natural sciences. the plankton scientist hopes to find out whether the jellyfish will continue their advance and conquer new regions. in view. on the coaches your. marine biologist bobby i m known by our works for the observatory also on a graphic. for us it s a meters to meet your deficient scale. beautiful organism a bit like flowers of the sea with their shape and tentacles and their almost lace like you. might find them very pretty with a sort of zen way of life. on this this is there. anyone who speaks that positively about jellyfish must have a reason. the location of his office for example. it s from here that he decides whether it s worth capturing a few of his research objects. today s a good day. the last stinger is the dominant species of the mediterranean. needs a few for his experiments in the laboratory. so . terrible as people think. they ve been at home in the world s oceans for more than 600000000 years sometimes they re there in great abundance sometimes there are just a few of them but they always play an important role as predators in the ocean and they could be useful to us humans so we shouldn t think of them as being terrible even if there are sometimes too many of them we have to learn to live with them and occasionally use them. he. has an unusual idea. he sucks up large quantities of slime released by the mob sting or when it s lange its eggs and the moon jellyfish when it stressed. the slime into test tubes. then he injects water polluted with nano particles into the jellyfish line purple here. the result the jellyfish slime causes the nano particles to clump together thus cleaning the polluted water. prison and there are more and more nano particles these days in creams for example factories producing these nano particles must dispose of their waste water without polluting the environment. the jellyfish slime can be used to collect and gather all these nano particles into a bowl so that they can be gotten rid of easily in a low cost an environmentally friendly way. back to. could this rescue the jellyfish its

the scientists collect water and plankton samples. if environmental conditions change could impact the composition of the ocean plankton change jellyfish might benefit from living through that we know that jellyfish polyps are very resistant to changes in the environment and that means that the polyps survive environmental conditions that other organisms cannot believe in the organism and need to believe in. the atlantic. to circuses sea which is situated far off the coast of north america . danish research vessel diana was on a deal expedition. for nearly a aspers does not agree with the negative image jellyfish have together with an international team of maritime biologists plankton experts she wants to prove they play an enormously important role in the food chain for. ample for the endangered european ill parts of tiree one is surprised that evil is becoming more expensive meals are actually at risk of extinction one possible connection that nobody is really making is that jellyfish could be a potential building block in the food chain without them we might have no more ills to wait by and you couldn t stand up to a compiler. on. the net for catching feel larvae was raised from a depth of 250 meters. the 1st glance proves that there are many species of gelatinous plankton organisms here. amongst them the scientists discover the mysterious deal larvae that hatch here in the sargasso sea. one this size wouldn t survive in an aqua culture because nobody knows what these baby seals eat. that s why no one has ever been able to breed european eels. the multi net is lifted on board. gather samples from several depths between 0 and 400 meters. plankton experts cornelia yeah spring skills are needed. after hours of rinsing counting classifying. it becomes clear which organisms contribute to the food chain out here sarkar so see. we catch small and cut them open we remove the stomach and his molecular methods to determine what they eat jellyfish don t have skeletons as a result they get digested immediately that makes it really hard to use normal methods like microscopes to find traces of such organisms but now we have molecular methods so that we can find out what gelatinous organisms are in the stomachs we also examine which gelatinous organisms are in the water. and then hopefully we can match the 2. maybe buy ins are consummate. do ill larvae eat jellyfish. proving that is difficult. the meticulous counting job on board is only the 1st step for the researchers. analyzing the data will take several years only then will the results be ready for publication. are jellyfish voter for the fish we eat establishing that would be a breakthrough for science. and the key not just for saving the european deal but also other endangered fish species. the jellyfish blooms symposium is an important event for change between scientists . jellyfish research is still in its infancy. and the uniform research methods as have been established in fishery biology are lacking. i think it s a really nice sign that there are so many young people involved now that s a very positive sign so is there a lot of post-docs and students involved that that means that there s an interest and growing interest and that is what has been lacking in the past years i think we . still need to find old why there is some growing population some point on the plan that we have a lot of indications about of course it needs rolling through these the decatur street is all you ve been very strong experimental through it is that falls a moment i feel lucky there is a lot of money touring is through monitoring programs that are started that need to be continued to area to understand what is going on. what s clear is that the mid do says are an important indicator of the decline of the oceans. a problem caused by humans. of course the jellyfish has no words to say they re human beings but the explosion of their population is just the unspoken language. that the fish the jedi fish expressed to us human beings as a warning sign. the mysterious world of jellyfish they ve been around for over 600000000 years making them the oldest marine inhabitants on our planet so far there has never been a jellyfish takeover but the creatures unusual qualities continue to enrich the diversity in our ocean. more intrigue on the international talk show for journalists

they put out a 300-page report that is direct and damning and flat-out says our president placed his own personal and political interests above the national interests of the united states. then they name names other than trump, all of them big names with a lot to lose. and there are phone records they link trump s guy, rudy giuliani, to the white house ph budget office and they link devin nunes with lev parnas, who may be working for the feds. all of this on the next wave of impeachment hearings, donald trump is in london. kamala harris is out of the race. we have it all covered as the 11th hour gets under way this tuesday night. o good evening once again from our nbc news headquarters here in new york, day 1,048 of this trump administration. and tonight, as expected, the house intelligence committee moved the impeachment case to the next step. it was a straight-up party-line vote 13-9, and with it comes a rather withering 300-page report that methodically accuses the president of the united states of wrongdoing in dealings with ukraine. now our attention becomes focused on the house judiciary committee, the one chaired by no jerry nadler, democrat of new york, which is holding its first impeachment hearing mere hours from now at 10:00 a.m. judiciary will use the report to draft articles of impeachment. details of the intel committee s findings were released publicly today. the report is based on the ten-week investigation triggeren by that whistle-blower complaint, let s not forget, that was concerning trump s july 25th phone call with the then-new president of ukraine. laid out in direct wording, the impeachment investigators found that donald trump, and we quoter here, personally and acting through agents within and outside of the u.s. government solicited the interference of a foreign government, ukraine, to benefit his re-election and to harm the election prospects of a political rival.re they go on. the president placed his own personal and political interests above the national interests of the united states, sought to undermine the integrity of the u.s. presidential election process and endangered u.s. national security. investigators say the vice president, secretary of state, the acting chief of staff, secretary of energy and other senior officials, quote, were either knowledgeable of or active participants in an effort to extract from a foreign nation the personal political benefits sought by the president. the report accuses the president of, quote, an unprecedented campaign of obstruction, adding, the evidence of the president s misconduct is overwhelming, and so too is the evidence of his obstruction of congress. today intelligence committee chairman adam schiff offered his assessment. this is not about ukraine. this is about our democracy. this is about our national security. if we don t care about this, we can darn well be assured the president will be back at it n doing this all over again. this report s biggest revelation, phone records obtained by house democrats. we didn t know about those before. they list the flurry of calls involving giuliani, lev parnas and nunes, the top republican on the intel committee who clashed as you will recall with the democrats during last month s public hearings. the calls include several made the same day as the u.s. ambassador to ukraine marie yovanovitch was recalled. giuliani called the white house seven different times who had nine minutes of conversation with an unidentified phone number. that same day, someone from the office of management and budget called rudy three times, the last call resulting in a nearly 15-minute conversation.thonnand the report also reveals multiple phone calls between devin nunes and lev parnas. on april 12th, there were four phone calls between the two, including one that lasted nearly nine minutes. nunes himself was asked about all that tonight on fox news. maybe they have the recordings of my phone calls with rudy giuliani. they re welcome to play them because everything i spoke with rudy giuliani about is nothing that i wouldn t care if the american people found out. did you ever talk to this guy, lev parnas, or whatever his name is? you know, it s possible, but i haven t gone through all my phone records. i don t really recall that name. i remember the name now because he s been indicted. i ll go back and check my records, but it seems unlikely that i would be taking calls from random people. just a short time ago on this network, intel committee chairman schiff discussed the sh calls revealed in this report. these phone records show just the kind of interaction between these different players in the midst of this scheme. we re trying to identify the full scope of those who were complicit in what the president was doing and they give a window into exactly that. as we watch nunes in the hearings, he knew that you had obtained phone records that included him and that those phone records would inevitably be made public by your report. well, he certainly had possession of the records. now, how much he looked into them, how much he discussed what they showed with his staff, i really can t say. you would have to ask him. the democrats impeachment report here also notes that mr. parnas appears to be in communication with congress and, thus, anyone who dealt with parnas could be in trouble. quote, mr. parnas has begun rolling production of certain records in his possession, custody, or control in response to the subpoena, which the committees are evaluating. there s also this about trump s pressure campaign to have ukraine make a specific statement regarding investigations into the bidens. the report includes an excerpt of a draft statement sent from ukrainian officials to then-special envoy kurt volker august 12th. the next day volker sent a revised version of the draft to gordon sondland which included an added promise to investigate burisma and the 2016 u.s. elections. the statement was never delivered publicly. this is all unfolding during the president s london visit for this week s nato summit meeting. tonight trump and other leaders joined the queen at a reception at buckingham palace. but earlier in the day and in traditional form, the president had plenty to say about what was going on back home. i think it s very unpatriotic of the democrats to put on a performance where they do that. i do. i think it s a bad thing for our country.rf impeachment wasn t supposed to be used that way. all you have to do is read the transcripts, you ll see there was absolutely nothing done wrong. they had legal scholars looking at the transcripts the other day, and they say these are absolutely perfect. trump is right when he uses the word those concept those calls we made, two of them, were absolutely perfect calls. there s some talk of lawmakers censuring you instead of impeachment. what do you think about that? unacceptable. i did nothing wrong. why won t you permit the secretary of state or the acting white house chief of staff to testify? well, i would. i d like them to testify but these are very unfair hearings. i want them to testify, but i want them to testify in the senate where they ll get a fair trial. which brings us to our lead-off discussion. tfye with us from london and traveling with the president, shannon pettypiece, veteran journalist, senior white house reporter for nbc news digital. maya wiley, former assistant attorney for the southern district of new york now with the new school here in new york, and lanhee chen back with us, research fellow at the hoover institution, former presidentiar campaign adviser to marco rubio and mitt romney. good evening to all of you. counselor, i d like to begin with you. i heard a lawyer on cable tonight say this is much more direct and serious and damning and specific than any similar document in all previous impeachments of johnson, nixon, and clinton. in your reading of this, did they make the case? will the american people agree they made the case? how many of the american people are going to read all 300 pages? well, number one, they not only made the case, reading it was like seeing a flood of evidence and having read it after reading the republican version of a report the prebuttal. they didn t even have a sandbag to hold back the waters that are in this report. let me just you actually already identified some of the key points, but this is really d laying out a play in three acts. what they can do going to your question about whether people will pay attention, it s really not 300 pages. you could boil it down to 20 pretty easily. they laid out a clear time line, but it s three acts. one is the direct involvement of the president in setting up the drug deal. the second act is after the preparation is bringing home the drug deal. and then the third act is getting caught in the drug deal. once you do that, you can pinpoint the specific points that are very clear, very simple in the report, documented with evidence that shows donald trump s direct involvement. you pointed to one of the most damning, which is the exchange of the statement that the ukrainians were supposed to make. one of the very specific pieces of evidence in the report is one august 9th, the day before that exchange of the actual text of what the ukrainians were supposed to say, there are calls from rudy giuliani and sondland. sondland makes two calls to the white house. after those two calls totaling 20 minutes to the white house, he then texts kurt volker and says potus really wants the deliverable, which he said in testimony, meant the announcement of those investigations. that is donald trump directing, and that is hard evidence and there has been no rebuttal to that. shannon, thank you so much for getting up way too early toi talk to us on live television, tonight our time, morning your time. is there any way to measure was this worse than what was expected if for no other reason the presence of these phone logs, which are very hard to explain away as maya noted? that is a new twist that the white house and the president s advisers weren t expecting. i will note the white house has been in the dark on this process because they ve not really been cooperating. they have refused to participate in this event. so that means their lawyers don t have access to what the witnesses are handing over or what these committees might have. so that could come as a surprise. the idea that the president s personal lawyer, who the president has repeatedly said is his personal lawyer, the white house has referred to him as an individual citizen, calling the situation room five times, as you noted. s has a es this call to this negative one number who we don t know who that belongs to, but i will point out that other people i have seen have noted that negative one number also came up in the roger stone trial when roger stone was having conversations with the president. so we don t know definitively that, but that implication is out there. and we had seen the poll number starting to sort of trend down a bit when it came to support for impeachment, particularly among independents. that seemed to boost a bit in the past week or so after the public hearings.fo so we have to watch with this sort of new it s sort of a turn of the screw. even though this is a big reporn and very definitive, it s sort of one more step to see what happens then. the president has had an opportunity overseas to sidestep this, to appear busy, being presidential and working on behalf of the american people, but he hasn t been able to help himself but wade back into this muck of impeachment while he s here when he gets asked about it by reporters. he has a press conference today where he ll certainly be asked about this and have an to opportunity to really go back at it if he wants to with democrats. and now to the brave life-long republican sitting inh our midst. s i want to read you this from david frum on social media tonight. smoking gun showing text of draft statement without burisma in 2016 elections and then updated text including those words. lonnie, if you had to prove it, could you prove that that s a demand? could you prove that that is indeed a quid pro quo or as david calls it a smoking gun? yeah. precisely to shannon s point good morning. we have breaking news out of london where it is day two of the nato summit getting under way. the final day of the nato summit commemorating 70 years of nato. we see marine one landing there as we are awaiting the president to exit for this final day of this two day summit there. they are about to give the official welcome there. after the class photo, the president will hold a bilateral meeting with her kill oig amera attend a working lunch with leaders and also hold a press conference later this morning. stephen miller there ahead of the president s arrival. earlier we saw turkish president erdogan arriving. much of the conversations have been whether the president would meet with president erdogan. it was not on his calendar, but they will be enter acting today as all the world leaders descend for this find day of summit.act as all the world leaders descend for this find day of summit. let s questigo to erin mclaughl. good to talk to you. it has been quite a summit. the president has been criticizing macremmanuel macron. and i believe that could be the president landing now. but take us through what we can expect today with the president. reporter: well, we can expect a show of unit iy at some pointa summit celebrating 70 years of the alliance. we heard from the nato secretary-general earlier today say that nato is the most effective alliance in history, trying to project strength but also noting the differences, differences which of course were on full display during yesterday s bilateral meeting between president trump and president maed in macron, macron standing by his previous statements that the alliance is experiencing a a brain death, something the president had been critical of saying it was a nasty comments. but president macron saying there is too much of a focus on burden sharing, something that is a top priority for president trump, and not enough focus on strategic direction, pointing to the alliance s definition of terrorism as an example. that europe s definition of terror is very different than say turkish president erdogan s definition definiti definition of terror. that is one example of the differences that macron needs to be ironed out. but there is a three hour meeting today and that is not a lot of time. expected to hear the leaders talk, each having three it four meetings to address the alliance. we also expect a number of bilateral meetings throughout the day that president trump will be taking part in, he will be sitting down with angela merkel, the danish prime minister and as well as the italian prime minister. expecting him to arrive here very shortly. and i want to bring in now hans nicholsnichols. good morning. we saw some contentious conversation yesterday to say the least between emmanuel macron and president trump. are we expecting any similar fireworks today with then he might meet with today? reporter: potentially. it is donald trump. so the prospect for confrontation and for ceremony being set to the side are amgs hi always high. nato summits are always a mixture of public ceremony and private substance. it is a little bit inverted with president trump because a lot of times the substance gets discussed out in the open. and typically that is done behind closed doors. we saw yesterday in over two hours of media engagement was him hashing out differences in front of world leaders. he previewed it with the secretary-general of nato and then it came out in the open when he was sitting there with emmanuel macron. and it wasn t that he tried to clean it up, but he softened things a little bit when he was with his canadian counterpart. when you look at his traditional nemesis, it is angela merkel. so i think that is when the real fireworks will start off in three, four hours. he isn t bound like he is here in the uk at least with his relationships with boris johnson, he isn t bound with merkel by any concerns that he might muddle her own election prospects because she s in the sunset of her career. so look to see how, not whether he criticizes merkel, but how he criticizes merkel and is it more domestically oriented or about germany s role in nato. and of course it will be book ended by a press conference where he will take questions from the full press corps. and as you talk about fireworks and we re seeing the president arrive here, you think about the split screen that we will be seeing here at home today as you are seeing that press conference happening today around 10:20 or so with the president where he meets with all these world leader, alongside the house judiciary committee here in the united states launching its impeachment inquiry. reporter: you will have another attack on process from the president of the united states. it is clearly their plan, and they telegraph this in numerous ways, to not give any credence to this next round of the impeachment inquiry, the formal hears in the judiciary commit e committee. we ll likely hear the revival of the line that it is unpatriotic to do this while their president is on foreign soil conducting foreign policy. the irony in all of this is that is precisely what the president is potentially going to be impeached about, and that is how he conducted foreign policy through his personal benefit. so i expect the president will get asked about rudy giuliani and how frequently he was in contact with him because there is a mystery in the footnotes of that report from house intel. but expect a similar line from the president and the only question i have is how much will he amp up his personal criticism of either nancy pelosi or adam schiff who yesterday he had some strong words for. hans, thank you. i want to bring in now jack jacobs. colonel jacobs, i want to talk about the power struggle that is going on there at the meetings. we have a vision it seems like emmanuel macron is trying to enforce parallel with what president trump and the rest of the nato allies here are trying to accomplish there. and can you talk a little bit about the different visions for the future of nato? well, it is interesting that macron is leaping to the fore here. the president used to have kind words for macron, but not lat y lately. the trump view, american view, initially is that nato was irrelevant, that our interests did not coincide with europe. and that got macron s hackles up. he perceived that there was a power vacuum in nato and that is one of the reasons why he became something of a spokesman for nato interests, european nato interests. the differences are something like this as far as trump is concerned, the united states interests and european interests do not coincide. and very much concerned with how much money the european nations were contributing to nato. on trump s side, the fact is that the united states does contribute a lot more to nato, to european defense than do you re pea european nations. and european expenses have increased actually since trump s criticism. but we have to remember that the united states has worldwide interests and as a result we contribute a great deal more to our own national defense than european nations do to theirs. for macron and for other european nations, the worldwide threats to europe are not the same as we perceive them to be. for the european nations, what is of the utmost interests is terrorism. and focus on terrorism is going to continue to be macron s mantra during this meeting and you will expect to see fireworks about that during the meeting and outside the meetings as they discuss it with the press. and terrorism and just where those isis fighters are coming from and the imprisoned ones and where they will be sent back was at the heart of the conversation yesterday between macron and president trump. all right. colonel jacobs, thank you so much. and i want to bring in tom swarbrick. good morning to you. thank you so much for joining us on this. let s talk boris johnson here. as we well know, it seems as if boris johnson has tried to keep somewhat of a distance from the president and the president was asked today to weigh in on boris johnson s future and he decided tlot do so. the president of the united states not necessarily popular in the uk as you well know. talk to us about how this is having an impact, what type of impact this is having just around the corner for boris johnson. as you say, everything is being viewed from the prism of the general election here. and actually as corbyn and johnson have slugged this out, right at the start donald trump appeared on lbc radio, the station i work at, and talked about how jeremy corbyn would be bad for brings contintain. and since then, corbyn has used trump s unpopularity as a stick, saying that both men are liars and that johnson and trump will sell off the nhs during any brexit deal. that is why donald trump s words on the nhs and the election more broadly are loaded here because he has sort of been at the heart of the general election campaign over this side of the atlantic. and trump is stepping back from that. as i heard him yesterday, he sort of walked back his comments about jeremy corbyn saying that i can work with anyone, i don t know much about this guy. and that was seized on here quickly but it is remarkable here that we have a huge summit of a very, very important institution taking place in london and the uk prime minister is actively trying to avoid being seen with the president of the united states. that is quite a balance. i want to talk about that for just a moment. how does he play both sides here? seemingly he is the biggest ally that trump seems to have at this very moment at this summit that they are hosting there in london. how does he deal with that, juggle that while still holding him at arm s length? i think that there will be a lot of pre-prep that has gone into this, calls that have gone between trump and johnson or between their people to try to get the message through conducts behind closed doors. while it might be publicly separated, privately they had a meeting last night at number 10. no cameras allowed. but still those talks went on. and in fact there is a video circulating, talking about behind closed door, of justin trudeau, mark ritter, boris johnson all in buckingham palace seemingly laughing about the president of the united states and why he may have been late and how people s jaws have hit the floor during some of his press conferences. and in that group was palestinian sa princess ann. so you have this scene of the world leaders and a member of the royal family laughing at the president of the united states behind his back. the president tweeted and saying enjoyed my meeting with were ris johns boris johnson, talked about numerous subjects. so it seems like the president is not necessarily playing into that narrative of distancing himself. and i think any mention of the nhs, that tweet is kind of vague, talked about numerous subjects. if he had mentioned about nhs, talked about jeremy corbyn, that would be seized upon. so i think the president is playing the diplomatic game as far as he can. you mentioned the scene almost out of mean girls where they are in that group talking about president trump that way. and you have to wonder what his standing is and how it has been diminished. he is still the leader of the most powerful nation on earth here, but like you said, president trump has long said that he is with him we so that being laughingstock. he was always talking about how now that he is president, people aren t laughing at the united states anymore, yet we re seeing video evidence that that is absolutely the not the case anymore. the guy is there our point of view is mesmerizing to watch. you never know what is coming next. obviously the consequences of that are massive. on nato itself, actually his argument is pretty well understood, an argument that obama was making and he s had some success. he s gotten some nations to increase their spending. but the method of making that happen is obviously new, unique, very, very different. and certainly from my own time in downing street whenever the president was on the call with the former prime minister, people would at times have their head in their hands, they would be amazed at the way in which the president was trying to put across his own point of view because he is just shooting from the lip. and that is very new in world geo strategic diplomacy, not something that we ve got used to. and for the royal family to see him operate in a different style, something that they can clearly bond over as they are having a drink at buckingham palace. stand by for us if you have the time. i want to bring back hans nichols into the conversation. we know syria and turkey will be on the agenda today and speaking about what took place in regards to pulling troops out of northeast syria and abandoning the kurds and why that happened and how to combat terrorism in the region. i m wondering if iran will be on the agenda. we ve seen recent reports were hundreds of people were killed, where the irgc literally surrounded people killing them one by one. and it is a devastating situation and we don t have a lot of information coming you out of the country because the internet was shut down in that country. i imagine it is top of mind for many world leaders today. from what you have heard, do you know if this is going to be part of the discussion today? reporter: the president indicated yesterday that he wants to talk about iran. he mentioned it three times. remember the first media engagement, he talked about thousands being killed. and then it seemed that he was practicing restraint when he was asked about whether or not he has a message for the protestors in iran. and that is when he said not really. and then he was asked directly do you support them and he said no. but it is clear that he was hoflding holding his fire and he didn t want to say something undiplomatic. and then at the next media engagement, he said we absolutely sooupt tupport the appropria protestors in iran. and the two main differences between trump and macron, should nato be focused to the east or the south. is this a counter russia organization or is it more about counterterrorism. the president and macron in some ways are on the same page there. they think it should be counter terrorism. and leave the funding aside, but the big difference with macron is on the issue of what do you do about turkey. macron was very stark on that in saying that you cannot have a nato ally fighting against partners who are with us in defeating isis. and that is as you kurds. i do think president trump came close to articulating a new policy in the middle east at least in syria and he says yes, he will be there for the oil being bbut yesterday was the first time that he acknowledged that he need a force there to knock down isis if they ever crop up again. previously his rhetoric is that the caliphate has been 100% has been defeated. yesterday indicating there is a couple hundred troops, 500, 600, that wbr id= wbr19590 /> are around the town. and the president indicated he wants them there to continue to combat isis if it comes back. and that is something that his pentagon has been pushing on him for some time. now, there are a lot of differences on turkey in syria and we ll see to what extent the /b> leaders can finesse them and whether it is behind closed doors or whether it gets more stark out in the open. and it is interesting as you say that it seems as if the president is sort of laying out a different strategy when it comes to syria because as you mentioned, his military leaders have been saying for quite some time that this has been the strategy going forward and the president and his military leaders have not necessarily been on the same page. do you think this is actually coming to light now because the president s feet are being held to the fire by some of these leaders like emmanuel macron? reporter: maybe. but i don t think that there is a whole lot of tangible evidence that donald trump has changed his position based on what foreign leaders say. i d be pretty skrept cal about that. but that has been the challenge for his own general secretary mattis on trying to convince the president to have a more robust international presence throughout the globe. whether that is in south korea or syria. so maybe he has modified a little bit based on and we re seeing something new with the president where he is modifying his behavior and his rhetoric. there may be some credence to that because as tom was mentioning, the last 24 hours we ve seen restraint is the wrong word, but a lightly restrained president trump at least as it relates to the election process spepspects of n doctor s son. he has been briefed that the nhs is an explosive issue here in the uk. the president was noticeably restrained is yesterday as it related to the latest upcoming election. i think that we see boris johnson arriving now. you know, the secretary-general of nato, he and trump have actually come a long way. and so i ll reverse myself and say when you look at leaders in nato, he has managed to massage the president and move and direct and shunt his rhetoric a little bit more towards a pan nato pro nato conversation. and that has to do with funding which is what so many nato leaders even starting with the obama administration were decrying other nato members for. not contributing directly enough to the security of nato in a variety of missions. so it is always a huge issue. one other thing that i think should be on wbr-id= wbr21390 /> our agenda is afghanistan. the president s isolationist impulses are always on display. he is hinting that talks with the taliban are starting back up again, that they want peace and they will have conversations. afghanistan really because it is a nato mission there, part of it, afghanistan gives you an indication of where nato countries contribute and what their numbers are. and you can see where the president might go on that when he talks about drawing u.s. troops down from afghanistan, will he ask other countries to continue to support the mission there. i want to talk about that restraint you were talking about with president trump. you clearly has had foreign policy briefings in the past ahead of these foreign trips here. but that has never stopped him before as far as what comes out of his mouth. so what do you think is the difference now? reporter: an election. the president spent the last six to eight weeks trying to get republican governors across the line in these off year elections, there is kentucky, mississippi, and louisiana as well. he lost two of those, but that is language that the president understands where he says if you go to him with a brief and say your potential rhetoric here could hurt a potential ally, whether a republican governor or prime minister that he is close with, that is something that the president intuitively understands and likes calling it, likes understanding it, likes sort of having his own crystal ball and trying to influence those events. remember when he was here in i think it was 2016 when he claims that he called brexit, right? he clearly said he thought brexit was going to hatcppen. remember the president s mother was born in scotland. he has an infinity for this country and in some way he thinks he reads the political currents here in ways that he might not say he does in italy or denmark or germany. and as we re watching boris johnson and the nato secretary-general stoltenberg greeting all these leader, talk about stoltenberg s leadership. from what i understand, he is the longest serving nato secretary-general and he was actually kept in place because many of the world leaders feared that if in fact he left, then u.s. president trump would have more influence as to what the next leader of nato would be. so they decided to keep him in plate. so the challenge of nato is not that you are rattling a tin cup, but you are trying to get all the members to give what they can. and let them see that it is in their interests to have contributions to missions across the globe. what stoltenberg i think has done barely successfully is that he has convinced other countries to take donald trump s argument and to use it for domestic purposes. so you will see secretary defense in germany who has moved over to the eu, but trump s rhetoric about spending more actually helped her. europe hasn t quite decided where they want to go from the pan force. but at least in the defense ministries, it is not an acknowledgement, but more of an interest in wanting to spend more. and so when thehe alternative i questioning article 5-on-if t, alternative is spending more, that is an argument that some in nato actually appreciate. i remember president obama in ottawa and his line was we need more canada. and that is the u.s. and canada that has very close relations. so the previous president was also pushing nato countries to spend more on defense. there is an entirely separate question on where that money should be spent. on general defense or some sort of counterterrorism force and that gets us back to the discussion of isis and isis fighters. but extremism in general. and back to iran real quickly, the stark differences on iran are what do you do to try to get them back into some sort of nuclear agreement. if that breaks out into the open today, we will see real differences and they won t be able to paper over it diplomatically. and i want to bring tom back in here. as we are watching prime minister boris johnson here greeting the other world leaders and members of nato, as host here, what is boris johnson s primary objective ahead of the elections? i think it is to get through to be quite honest. i don t think that there is anything greater than that from the public and press point of view. just to not have the situation blow up in his face which we could see later with the trump press conference given that we are so close to that election date. on the substance, yes, a lot of talk about terrorism and whether nato should be more focused on that, a lot of talk whether it is to the south or east that nato looks. and the other thing that i gather is being discussed for the first time is the strategic threat of china. clearly trump is in the middle of this trade spat but it is having an effect on europe, not just financially and economically, but also from a defense point of view. whatever is going on in the south china sea is attracting friga frigates. italy is signing a memorandum of understanding with the chinese that italy doesn t like because of the trade talks with the chinese. so that is splitting europe and potentially splitting nato. so on the issue of substance, there a heck of a lot for boris johnson to achieve out of this. but as you said, everything is going through the election prism right now and even frankly the handshake with donald trump, if there it is a hug, people will take note of that, jeremy corbyn will seize on that and say look, the two trumps are aligned. and we just saw angela merkel there greeting prime minister boris johnson. and how focused is the public in the uk on this substantive things that boris johnson accomplishes that comes out of that nato meeting? not massively. obviously terrorism is something that the uk has been dealing with frankly for too long and all too recently. we had a terrorist attack on friday that killed two people. so dealing with isis and other terrorist groups is a massive problem that the uk is facing, but it won t be solved in the next few hours at this nato summit. so as much as the public aren t necessarily focused on the substantive outcomes from this, the way the style of it is definitely something that people will want to take note of and how that plays out over the next few days will be very important. particularly as i mentioned earlier, jeremy corbyn from the labour party, almost his entire election strategy has been pivoting around donald trump s appearance in the uk over these two days. donald trump has been the person in the ring with johnson and corbyn over the last few weeks. and so whatever comes out of this, if there is even a hint of talk of the nhs, a hint of talk about how jeremy corbyn might be bad for the uk as donald trump has previously suggested, that will be seized upon and that will become the substance. i want to bring back in colonel jack jacobs. i was curious about the political predicament that donald trump is facing here at home and how that may affect the calculous of other world leaders when they deal with him and that power struggle for the future of nato. do you think his influence is diminished at all because of the predicament here at home? one is prompted to say yes, but the history of donald trump in fora like this is probably unchanged. he has been gles liaeeen dougme since the beginning but it hasn t had an affect on what takes place in europe and the way in which the american government, european governments work together. at the military level, a lot of these politics are more or less irrelevant. the military establishment works with other military establishments around the gleb witho globe without respect to what the president of the united states says or how he interacts with world leaders. i think one of the major differences now is something that we mentioned earlier and that is the change in the focus of what world leaders think nato should be working on. i mean, the continental europeans are very much concerned with terrorism, immigration from countries to the south, the flux of people across borders and so on, this is a major defense problem. and they are less concerned with other variables on the fence of the european continent. and the american view is very much different. if you talk to military people, american military people, they will tell you our focus certainly is on the middle east, but we have long term strategic plans to defend the european continent against incursions from the east and that won t change. and conversations between american military leaders at the top of the food chain and european military leaders at the top of the food chain, that hasn t changed. and donald trump s impact on that is going to be unchanged as well. colonel, we re getting news from reuters now basically out of russia saying that news that nato plans to increase its defense spending confirms the russian concerns over the alliance s expansion. could you react to that for us? yeah, i m not surprised at all. as a matter of fact, i think that we ll see increasing expenditures even in difficult economic times from europe on defense generally. don t forget that the united states has a significant number of americans deployed in europe. we have them deployed in the baltic countries, primarily because of the russian threat. i think is always a twid, pardon t quid pro quo, pardon the expression, but a lot of money trading places in nato s interests. the biggest problem other than the split between the american military view that russia is a bigger threat than the europeans perceive, is our operations in the middle east. you know, we talked earlier about the change in the american attitude in our deployments in syria. the president wanted to take everybody out of there. and in fact ordered that to do so. not long after that, we went back in or we with drew in syria and then went back in ostensibly to defend oil, but that is a sham. we went back in because we weren t going to leave in the first place and cooler heads prevailed, the president was convinced by military leaders that precipitous withdraw from against our interests in the middle east and to our allies and our interests worldwide and that is why they went back ostensibly to gnd tdefend the oilfields because we re really there to continue to defeat isis. and you bring up syria and we just saw president erdogan there. this is the moment where all the world leaders are in one place, that we have not seen for the last 48 hours. this is the moment where they could feezbly hold easibly hold feet to the fire. the president of united states did not hold turkey s feet to the fire as some criticized him for. do you believe that will happen here today? i think that the europeans are liable to say plenty of stuff publicly about the lack of fealty in turkey. i ll be surprised if the president says anything about it, but the one thing that you are liable to hear from the president on the subject of turkey is the concern about turkey is cozying up with russia and turkey s much of russian missile symptoms. you are liable to hear from the some had on that but a lot more from the european countries publicly. and can you give us any knowledge and expand on that a little bit for us? yesterday we heard from the president basically saying the reason why turkey had to buy missiles from russia is because the obama administration wouldn t sell them to russia, so turkey had to make a turn and buy what they needed from russia. can you talk to us about that? yeah, i think that that is for domestic political consumption. to go back to the relationship between american military leaders and military leaders in other countries including turkey, the conversation is very much different. there is a great deal about those decisions. foreign military leaders will say they have no control over the decisions that are made like that when in actual fact nothing could be further from the truth. like into the united states, military leaders have a great deal of influence on the weapons systems that are purchased and used and developed. a lot of it has to do with the military influence in that country. but i think that the president s public pronouncement on that purchase notwithstanding one has to perceive that that is mostly for american domestic political consumption. i would still be surprised if you hear as much consternation from our president about this than you will hear s as you will hear from the europeans. the europeans are very much concerned about the drift of turkey away from nato to follow what it perceives its own interests and the interests and we re now watching president trump and his arrival standing there between stolenburg and prime minister boris johnson. is there anybody, colonel, there at the summit who will hold president trump to account, anybody that has the clout to hold him to account for the abandonment of the kurds? well, macron is something of i mentioned it before but sure seems like with the president announcing that early on in the presidency that we were going to effectively withdraw from the world stage, america first, we re interested in our own interests and that is domestic rather than international, that was a wrn warning sign and macron is the person who stepped into the breach. don t forget britain has its own internal difficulties. merkel won t be around for leadership very much longer. so macron has stepped into the breach and i think that you will hear more from him than you will from anybody else. colonel, let s talk about the elephant in the room which is iran. i touched on this a bit with hans earlier. we had seen reports out of iran which i m sure you have seen as well. hundreds of people killed by the irgc due to the increasing gas prices, there were protests that had been ramped up in iran over the last couple weeks. the irgc opened fire on a number of protestors in that country. the government admitting to it, disputing the numbers but nonetheless hundreds killed in that country during these protests. i imagine this is going to be top of mind as i mentioned to hans earlier for world leaders there, that along with the jcpoa. you can t help but think how world leaders move forward with iran trying to convince the president to get back into an agreement with iran when in fact we are seeing some of the devastating reports that we ve seen over the last couple weeks coming out of that country. i think that you will see the president going the other way, saying that he s vindicated now. i mean, we see iran firing on its own people and that indicates that you have a bankrupt leadership there hand he has to put the squeeze on. he doesn t believe that they can be trustworthy and so on. no, i think that you will see even more tough rhetoric from the president on the subject of iran and i don t think that being conciliatory is in the cards here for the united states. with respect to what is happening internally there, you might remember that some years ago, there were a million people in the streets in tehran. i think that was on a friday. the next day after the revolutionary guards went around knocking people s heads and shooting people you re saying during the green movement in 2009? correct. so the numbers in the streets went from one million, next day about 5,000 and then after a few more people were killed the next day, there were zero. no demonstrations. this is not necessarily the same thing. but i have to tell you that it is unlikely the situation inside the country is unlikely to change dramatically over time. and i think that the president s perception is that that is he s been told that that is the case and i think that he will get the rhetoric will be tougher on the american side. so if you are in the room, what is the way forward here? with iran? yeah. well, we ve all said time and time again that when president wilson, woodrow wilson, said we need to have public pacts publicly arrived at, that he was only half right. we need public pacts, but the only way that you can get good public pacts that can be released to the public if you arrive at them secretly, conducting policy formulation in public, conducting discussions about policy, conducting the formulation of pacts in public is the silliest thing in the world to do because people get entrenched in their public positions and they can t back off. the way to conduct diplomacy is to do it in private. you ve heard a lot of complaints from americans in the state department about how weak the state department is, that is at least partially a function of how the president of the united states has tried to conduct policy in public. the way to get something done with iran it bring iran to heal is to do it in private and do it with our allies in europe and elsewhere, continuing to do it in public is not going to get us anywhere. iran will continue to dig its heels in because at the regime itself who is on the reasons has nothing to lose if it continues to do what it is doing now. colonel jacobs, what do you think it will take to make the trump administration prioritize iran with all the other things that are on the table at this very moment? well, that is interesting. the president of the united states speaks to and listens to a very, very small number of people. i talked to someone who was in the white house some time ago, not in the white house, and said how do you influence the president. and he said, you know, during duty hours, i can affect the flow of information into and outside and from the oval office. but after duty hours, there is no way that you can control to whom the president speaks and to whom he listens to. i think the only way the president is going to be able to form some kind of policy and a hoe d way to get him to his objective, if people to whom he listens, manage to convince him to do it that way. but i got to tell you, it is an uphill battle because don t forget we re in an election process, a domestic election process, and first and foremost in the president s mind and in the minds of people who he is closest to is his re-election. so i don t think that we ll get much progress on that score. colonel, as we approach the top of the hour and we re seeing secretary of state mike pompeo is there getting ready to kick off the last day of this two day nato summit, i can t help but think about trust here, especially considering what just took place in syria with abandoning of the kurds. is there a sense you think from your perspective in this room at this point that you can t necessarily trust the united states as much as one could have 20 years ago amongst nato leaders? well, i think it is not just among nato leaders. i think there is a perception worldwide that the united states under trump would like to withdraw from the world stage, that the united states cannot be trusted and that is why a lot of leaders are turning to other means of being able to influence their defense policy. to all of our guests, we thank you so much for sticking with us throughout this last hour. it is the top of the hour, everybody. it is 5:00 a.m., you have just watched the beginning of the second day of the nato summit with world leaders descending on london to wrap up what has been an eventful 48 hours or so. we saw the president greeting boris johnson and we ll see what comes out of the next day or so. we ll be watching for his press conference at 10:00 a.m.

imagination to say the least he creates what can only be described as out of this world wearable sculptures often brimming with all sorts of religious imagery and always very detailed he uses a special kind of latex made from a secret concoction of his own so that these extraordinary clothes can actually be worn by models and they can move around in. these dresses make models look almost like sculptures of angels for example. or of gloomy beings from the underworld. the designs of british artist liam brandon murray looked as if they were chiseled in stone. like the dark side of russian. as well as the light side you know just as much i m pretty much put in yeah i m very much like the black. started creating these details dresses about 12 years ago. studio he works more like a sculptor than a tailor 1st created models from clay before making plaster it s not fast fashion. so if we take the big black dress for example if i was to start from the sculpting process so completely from scratch i had no sculptures of the big black dress would probably take a round about 2 years to make. it takes his inspiration from insects aliens and he even makes shoes. tex mixture that he developed himself. so what we have here these 7 different substances mixed together and especially greedy and i throw in there that among this gross but this makes it a lot quicker are a lot stronger. more longevity and with this substance even washable. the designs really come to life in the right environment such as an elephant in the castle park. and. the models are not used to wearing such unusual creations. it s a little bit hard i will say it s very it s lighter than you think because it s quite supported at my head so it s not hard to ask and do you see anything i can see a lot right. but that s not the point right now the model is part of an artwork . would you worth something like. i love to be able to wear something like that s. not my style i m not into skulls and things like that. yeah very different could be the clothes for the future in i never know kind of like them i mean different is and it s not something i would wear out and publicly looks the part is crazy. anyone wearing a dress like this is trying to draw attention to the references to religion also a round curiosity this is a kind of reaction to that like people are fascinated by the conceit to cause it to get a response like this is. exactly what it would for. there s no doubt about it liam brandon murray s designs are certainly i capture is. extraordinary finally a look at a very special kind of cartography making panoramic maps are more optimistic than technical they are normal photographic representation of landscapes or cities which offer the observer more of a bird s eye view of an area than a conventional and also a kind of. 3 dimensional view as well giving a realistic look to the area in question perhaps the best examples to illustrate are always panoramic maps of the mountains. there s always that one moment bewilderment in the mountains this vastness beauty products how small we are it s impossible to grasp all of that. then there s that moment in front of a panorama that in which absolute clarity reigns the mountainous masses so beautifully tidy it up finally understanding the mountain like a soaring bird what a swindle. but all the cottons and our town around the maps are by no means images of reality they actually reinvent reality they distort mountains they turn them around if you look at it with an exact scientific view nothing at all is true on a panorama
