Salziger als das Rote Meer – das Mittelmeer

Wenn ein Aquarianer Urlaub macht und der Bazillus Aquaristik sehr weit fortgeschritten ist, hat er einige Messgeräte immer dabei. So führten den JBL Expeditionsleiter, Heiko Blessin, ein paar Urlaubstage mit der Familie nach Kroatien.

Neben vielen Unterwasserbildern kamen folgende Messwerte dabei heraus: Salzgehalt 1,027 ; Leitfähigkeit 58 mS/cm; pH: 8,2; KH 7-8 °dKH; Ca 440 mg/l; Mg 1160 mg/l.

Obwohl das Mittelmeer ein Nebenmeer des Atlantiks ist, weicht der Salzgehalt stark vom Atlantik ab. Die wenigen Zuflüsse und die starke Verdunstung führen zu dem hohen gemessenen Salzgehalt des Mittelmeeres, das nur durch die Meerenge von Gibraltar mit dem Atlantik verbunden ist. Dort strömt leichteres Atlantikwasser an der Oberfläche in das Mittelmeer hinein und das salzhaltigere (somit schwerere) Mittelmeerwasser in den Atlantik hinaus. Da dieser Wasseraustausch jedoch relativ gering ist, versalzt das Mittelmeer langsam.

Die Wasserbewohner des Mittelmeeres vertragen übrigens die normalen Salzgehalte problemlos. Nur die hohen Temperaturen der tropischen Meere sind langfristig für viele Mittelmeerbewohner problematisch.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
