In microbiology, collective bacteria and other microorganisms in a host are historically known as flora. Although microflora is commonly used, the term microbiota is becoming more common as microflora is a misnomer. Flora pertains to the Kingdom Plantae. Microbiota includes Archaea, Bacteria, Fungi and Protists. Microbiota with animal-like characteristics can be classified as microfauna.

History
The terms "Flora" and "Fauna" were first used by Carl Linnaeus from Sweden in the title of his 1745 work Flora Suecica and Fauna Suecica. At that time, biology was focused on macroorganisms. Later, with the advent of microscopy, the new discovered ubiquitous microorganisms were fit in this system. Then, Fauna included moving organisms (animals and protist as "micro-fauna") and Flora the organisms with apparent no movement (plants/fungi; and bacteria as "microflora"). The terms "microfauna" and "microflora" are common in old books, but recently they have been replaced by the more adequate term "microbiota". Microbiota includes Archaea, Bacteria, Fungi and Protists.

Microflora classification 
Microflora are grouped into two categories based on the origin of the microorganism.

 Autochthonous flora. - Bacteria and microorganisms native to the host environment
 Allochthonous flora. - Temporary microorganisms non-native to the host environment

Roles 
Microflora is a term that refers to a community of bacteria that exist on or inside the body, and possess a unique ecological relationship with the host. This relationship encompasses a wide variety of microorganisms and the interactions between microbes. These interactions are often a mutualistic relationships between the host and autochthonous flora. Microflora responsible for harmful diseases are often allochthonous flora.

The modern term is "Microbiome" and include microorganisms that have different roles in ecosystems or hosts, including free-living organisms, or organisms associated to hosts, such animals (including humans) or plants.

Projects 

In 2008, the National Institutes of Health started the Human Microbiome Project designed to help understand the health implications of human bacterial flora. Biologists believe that bacterial flora may play some role in disorders such as multiple sclerosis. Additionally, the study of flora can have industrial benefits such as dietary supplements like probiotics. The living microorganisms in probiotics are believed to have positive effects on health, and have been utilized in studies regarding gastrointestinal diseases and allergies.

In 2014, the Earth Microbiome project proposed a broad initiative to identify the diversity and importance of the microbiota in different ecosystems across the planet, including free-living microbiota (in water and terrestrial systems) and host associated-microbiota (associated with plants and animals).

Sammi (Shahmukhi: سمّی) is a traditional dance form originating from the tribal communities of Punjab. The dance is most popular in the Amritsar, Sandalbar and Pothohar regions of Punjab.

Costume

The dancers are dressed in bright colored kurtas and full flowing skirts called Ghagra or Lehenga. A peculiar silver hair ornament is associated with this dance.

Performance

Like Giddha it is danced in a circle. The dancers stand in a ring and swing their hands bringing them up from the sides, right in front. The refrain of the most popular Sammi song is "Sammi Meri waar..".

Vampiropolynoe is a genus of marine polychaete worms belonging to the family Polynoidae, the scaleworms. Vampiropolynoe contains a single species, Vampiropolynoe embleyi which is known from hydrothermal vents in the South Pacific Ocean at a depth of about 1500 m.

Description
Vampiropolynoe embleyi is a short-bodied scale worm with 44 to 45 segments and 10 pairs of elytra which overlap but leave the mid dorsum exposed and are thin, translucent and smooth. The prostomium is bilobed and has an anterior notch which is where the median antenna is located. Cephalic peaks and lateral antennae are absent on the prostomium, but a pair of filaments are present on the front margin of the prostomium. The neuropodium is elongate and tapering. The notochaetae are smooth and distinctly thicker than neurochaetae. The upper neurochaetae are flattened with a row of serrations or spines along each margin. Neurochaetae with bidentate tips are also absent.

Klaus Wyrtki (February 7, 1925 – February 5, 2013) was an American physical oceanographer.

Born in Tarnowitz, Upper Silesia, Poland, in 1925, from 1945-1948 Wyrtki attended the University of Marburg in Germany, and received his Ph.D. from the University of Kiel in 1950. He was a professor at Scripps Institution of Oceanography until 1964, when he became a member of the faculty of the Department of Oceanography at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. From 1993 he was an emeritus professor.

Among other things, Wyrtki is known for his work on understanding and forecasting El Nino. He established a tidal gauge network, gave an explanation for the Pacific oxygen minimum zone under the thermocline, and discovered the ocean current jet that now bears his name, the "Wyrtki Jet". He is also known for his work on thermohaline circulation.

Wyrtki died on February 5, 2013, in Honolulu, Hawaii. He was survived by his wife, Erika; his son, Oliver; his daughter, Undine; and three grandchildren.

Awards and honors
In 1991, Wyrtki was awarded the Sverdrup Gold Medal Award by the American Meteorological Society, for "outstanding contributions to the dynamics of ocean currents, especially the Gulf Stream". In 2003, Wyrtki was awarded the Prince Albert I Medal. In 2004, he was awarded the Alexander Agassiz Medal of the National Academy of Sciences "for fundamental contributions to the understanding of the oceanic general circulation of abyssal and thermocline waters and for providing the intellectual underpinning for our understanding of ENSO (El Niño)". He is also the winner of the Rosenstiel Award of the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, the Albert Defant Medal of the German Meteorological Society, and the Maurice Ewing Medal from the American Geophysical Union. In 2007, he was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. A research vessel at the University of Hawaii is named in his honor.

According to friend and colleague Axel Timmermann, Wyrtki "was really one of the two or three greatest oceanographers of all time, I think. Without him we wouldn't do El Nino forecasting on a regular basis. Without him perhaps we wouldn't understand the effects of global warming on sea level tides. He made some amazing contributions to science and society."

Exercise Croix du Sud is a military exercise held every two years in New Caledonia, its surrounding waters and airspace. Many countries in the Pacific region take part in these exercises, which usually focus on delivering humanitarian aid, evacuating civilians, and reestablishing security in the wake of a simulated disaster.

Overview

Croix du Sud is the French term for Southern Cross. It is the largest humanitarian assistance and disaster relief training exercise in the South Pacific. France hosts and organises the exercises through its New Caledonian Armed Forces, headquartered in Noumea.

In alternate years, the concept for the next Croix du Sud is developed through a desktop exercise called Equateur. A typical scenario would be a category-four cyclone disaster, resulting in poor sanitation, hunger, disease, and an outbreak of looting and rape which targets foreigners. Other scenarios have included extremists disrupting government control and inciting riots.

The Australian Department of Defence says Croix du Sud aims to maintain interoperability among regional defence and police forces. The exercise is also an opportunity to practise maritime surveillance, along with stability and security operations. The exercise takes place in accordance with a 1992 agreement between France, Australia and New Zealand.

Participants
Many countries whose militaries are active in the Pacific Ocean have committed personnel and equipment to the exercise. NGOs have also taken part. Participants in past exercises have included:

 Australia: heavy landing craft  and , amphibious landing platform , landing ship , minehunters  and , Sea King helicopters, infantry from the 2nd Royal Australian Regiment, Hercules transport aircraft, and Super King Air utility aircraft.
 Canada: Hercules transport aircraft.
 Chile: observers
 Fiji: observers an infantry platoon, patrol boat ,
 France: patrol ship D'Entrecasteaux.
 New Caledonia: Troupes de marine, vessels and troops of the Maritime Gendarmerie, National Gendarmerie, the frigate Vendémiaire, transport aircraft including CN-235, and local civilians.
