Changing Seas is a public television series produced by South Florida PBS (WPBT2-WXEL) in Miami, Florida, and narrated by announcers Craig Sechler and Peter Thomas.

The series accompanies oceanographers and other experts as they seek out new information about the oceans of the world and allows viewers to experience first-hand how they study earth’s last frontier, shedding light on how human activities are threatening ocean resources..[1][2][3]

Season 1 (2009)

[edit]

Changing Seas is a public television series produced by South Florida PBS in Miami, Florida. Since 2009, when its first season was released, the series has taken viewers on an exciting adventure to the heart of our liquid planet. In 2024, the show has released its 16th Season.

Changing Seas gives viewers a fish-eye view of life in the deep blue.

The first season of the documentary series Changing Seas from 2009 follows scientists and explorers as they study the ocean and uncover new information that could lead to scientific breakthroughs. The season includes episodes about:

  • The Goliath Grouper: The comeback of the giant Goliath Grouper in Florida, despite the rapid disappearance of large fish from the world's oceans
  • Aquarius: Scientists spend ten days living and working at the world's only underwater laboratory, Aquarius, to study the effects of ocean acidification on local reef ecosystems
  • Deep sea corals: The magnificent deep sea corals that grow off Florida's Atlantic coast, reaching heights of up to 300 feet
  • Aquaculture: The growing demand for fresh seafood has pushed wild stocks to the brink, and aquaculture is one alternative to wild-caught fish
  • Salt marshes: Researchers study one of America's iconic landscapes
  • Deep-sea submersible Alvin: Upgrades to the Alvin allow it to go deeper than ever before
  • Juvenile tarpon and snook: Scientists study and restore their habitat in Florida
  • Mangroves and seagrasses: Experts work to restore Florida's important mangroves and seagrasses

Season 8 (2016)

[edit]
Ep # Title
801 (29)"Sponges: Oldest Creatures in the Sea?"
Until recently there was scientific consensus that sponges were the first animals to branch off the “Animal Tree of Life,” a kind of family tree for all living and extinct animals on earth. But recent DNA research has cast doubt on that theory, with some scientists suggesting that ctenophores, also known as comb jellies, are an older lineage.
802 (30)"Manatees: Conserving a Marine Mammal"
Every winter, hundreds of manatees aggregate at Crystal River, Florida, attracted by the warmer, spring-fed clear waters. This sanctuary is also a treasure for scientists, who take advantage of these manatee gatherings to study them. From decades of visual ID studies to the most cutting-edge DNA research, experts hope that science will help conserve this beloved marine mammal.
803 (31)"Maug's Caldera: A Natural Laboratory"
In the remote Pacific, the islands of Maug rise out of the sea. Formed by an ancient volcano, shallow hydrothermal vents are found close to coral reefs inside the submerged caldera. These vents emit levels of CO2 that can be expected in the world’s oceans by the end of the century, making these waters a natural laboratory for scientists studying the impacts of ocean acidification on coral reefs. Co-produced with Open Boat Films.
804 (32)"Beneath the Bridge"
The Blue Heron Bridge in Riviera Beach, Florida, is known as one of the best shore dives in the United States. What appears as an unlikely dive site at first is home to a rich variety of marine life, ranging from tiny nudibranchs to manta rays. Underwater photographers are documenting what lives beneath the bridge, and a scientist is studying how two species of octopus co-exist there.

Season 9 (2017)

[edit]
Ep # Title
901 (33) [31]"The Future of Seafood"
To feed a booming world population, more fish will need to be farmed in the future. One way to increase fish production in a sustainable way is to move aquaculture operations offshore – where there is plenty of space and strong currents avoid polluting sensitive ecosystems.
902 (34) [32]"Toxic Algae: Complex Sources and Solutions"
Putrid mats of blue green algae are wreaking havoc on Florida’s shorelines. Scientists think water pollution is to blame, and if something isn’t done about it there could be irreparable damage to the environment, the local economy and people’s health.
903 (35) [33]"The Fate of Carbon"
For millennia, the exchange of CO2 between the oceans and atmosphere has been in balance. Now, with more anthropogenic carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the oceans are taking up more CO2 as well. This additional CO2 is negatively impacting sensitive ecosystems, making scientists worry how these changes will affect the way carbon is cycled through the seas.
904 (36) [34]"Majestic Mantas"
Mexico’s remote Revillagigedo Archipelago is a hotspot for oceanic mantas. Scientists use photo ID techniques and acoustic tags to study these mysterious fish. They are also researching if the filter-feeding rays are impacted negatively by microplastics – tiny pieces of toxic trash that float in the ocean.

1002 (38)"Cryptic Critters"
On a shipwreck near Key West lives a tiny potential new threat. Researchers want to know where this new species came from, and whether its sudden appearance spells disaster for the delicate coral reef ecosystem in the Florida Keys.
1003 (39)"Lords of the Wetlands"
While American crocodiles are recovering in parts of their range, their future looks bleak in Jamaica. Habitat loss and poaching have led to a drastic decline in the population. Dedicated experts are working to save the species through research, education, and conservation initiatives.
1004 (40)"Fishing the Flats for Science"
Flats fishing is popular with recreational anglers in the Caribbean and the Florida Keys. But until recently, little was known about tarpon, bonefish and permit – the species most coveted by sports fishermen. Now scientists are studying the fish to better understand their movements, habitat, and spawning behaviors.

Ten years after the Deepwater Horizon oil rig disaster, scientists are still studying its devastating impacts on the Gulf of Mexico. Now they are using lessons learned to prepare for the next big spill.
1203 (47)"Peru's Desert Penguins"
Along Peru’s barren coastline seabirds reign. Among them is the adorable Humboldt penguin, which builds its nests in the guano of other birds. Scientists monitor local penguin populations and study the animals’ interactions with fisheries.
1204 (48)"American Samoa's Resilient Coral Reefs"

American Samoa is home to some of the largest corals on record. Reefs in this remote island

The deep-sea submersible Alvin has brought explorers to extraordinary places for more than 50 years. Now, as Alvin is poised to continue its revolutionary scientific work, a new set of upgrades will take it deeper than ever before.

A co-production with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
1304 (52)"Habitats: The Key to Florida's Fisheries"
Tarpon and snook are two of Florida’s most iconic game fish. Both species rely on mangrove creeks and ponds when they are juveniles. With half of the state’s mangroves lost to development, scientists employ creative solutions to restore and reconnect some of these important habitats to secure the future of the fisheries.

Season 14 (2022)

[edit]
Ep # Title
1401 (53)"Vanishing Whales"
