Steel Rain had them thrown in the Celestia's brig without a source of water to keep their flesh moistened. They have been working for the Zodiacs ever since, collecting underwater salvage or hunting down bounties near water.Ĭapricorn and Pisces were later captured by the Steel Rangers, Pisces got captured trying to rescue Capricorn. They were spotted by Sagittarius, who informed Dr. They also developed a mental problem regarding tapping the glass as the society ponies would frequently tap their glass container to get them to move about. They would be traumatized during their time with the Society, developing a hatred for the Society ponies, especially King Awesome. They were fished out of a resevoir by the Society's nets and kept as an exhibit in a menagerie (zoo). They followed the waterways until it took them to Hoofington.
PROJECT PISCES FULL
They managed to make their way to a creek full of Radigators which they managed to avoid. Because they were joking about Seaponies at that time, the plant decided to turn them into Seaponies, miles from any water source. They appear in Fallout: Equestria - Project Horizons.Īt some point Capricorn and Pisces were searching for food in the Everfree Forest and came across Killing Joke. The Sanctuary Advisory Committee requested this presentation from USGS to inform the community of the importance of the work and how it will support reef conservation and restoration efforts by partners such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).Capricorn and Pisces are sisters and members of the Zodiac Clan. Field work planned for July 2022 involves extensive mapping efforts that require cooperation and support from local partners in the Florida Keys such as closing reefs of interest to public visitation while sampling is underway. These images are compared with diver-based photographs and will be used together with the elevation data to create 3-dimensional seafloor maps and quantify small-scale elevation changes and the processes driving them. One of the methods used to do this involves towing the Structure-From-Motion Quantitative Underwater Imaging Device (SQUID-5) across the water’s surface over reefs in the Florida Keys to collect high-resolution imagery and elevation data. The PISCES project is working to identify the processes driving elevation change. While there are inherent risks to seafloor loss such as reductions in ecosystem benefits, this erosion has also resulted in greater increases in water depths than projected from sea-level rise alone leading to increased flood risk for coastal communities. Reef degradation due to climate change and anthropogenic influences has caused large-scale seafloor erosion since at least the 1930s. From Ĭoral reefs provide numerous benefits to coastal communities including protection from flooding during storms as well as ecosystem benefits such as habitat for numerous ecologically and economically important species.
