Deep sea

Thomas Shirley and a group of scientist of the Harte Research Institute at Texas A&M University conducted a deep sea coral expedition of the coast of Canada. By using a mini submersibles to closely study deep sea coral and compare them to shallow water corals; Shirley learning that deep sea corals grows anywhere from one and a half meters to three meters high in large pastures. Also deep sea coral form colonies instead of reefs like shallow water coral; these colonies contain thousands of animals

A huge problem with deep sea mining is that the sea/ ocean waters is something that humans have not even begun to scratch the surface of grasping a full understanding of it. The sea is the largest biological habitat on this earth and is not understood. There are so many undiscovered incredible organisms are all potential he homes by deep-sea mine. Extreme temperatures, pitch black darkness and a giant amount of bio diverse city, most of which are very sensitive to any disturbance just a little light

Robert Ballard: Exploration of the Deep Sea Robert Ballard was one of the great explorers who discovered numerous secrets about the deep sea and science while encountering new creatures and natural resources as he explored and exchanged new ideas of using technology and incorporating it into his discoveries. Ballard is known for two of his most famous findings: the shipwreck of the Titanic and the Bismarck. The ideas of using technology to assist with his findings helped him create his own equipment

Ballard famously referred to the deep sea as ‘far more alien than going to mars or the moon.’ The deep sea is one of the largest virtually unexplored ecosystems on the planet; it is found at a depth of 1000 fathoms [1] and is subject to adverse changes in temperature, pressure and light penetration amongst other factors. Therefore as expected fish decrease in abundance, and species diversity. This trend is prominent as in order to survive the harsh conditions of the deep sea, fish need a number of specific

Deep-Sea Creature Adaptions Deep-Sea creatures in the Bathypelagic Zone and lower must adapt to survive. Adapting to this harsh environment didn’t take only a few years, this process has occured over millions of years and will continue to occur. Some characteristics that the organisms adapted are things like: the ambush strategy, extended spines, smaller sizes, deep-sea giantism, bioluminescence, transparant skins, large mouths, large teeth, large stomachs, large eyes, slow metabolic rates, lateral

not. Here are 9 other things you might expect on your deep sea fishing trip. 1. Nothing shallow. As the word deep means, you will be setting off on a boat to deeper waters that are more than 30 meters deep. This will definitely bring you a certain distance away from dry land so make sure you have everything you need with you. 2. Expect that your fishing expedition will be dependent on weather conditions; wind that adversely affects

2014 Deep Ocean: The truth of the Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea Everyone might have once imagined dark environments and scary creatures which live in the deep sea. These childlike dreams are visualized in the popular novel, Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea. In the novel, the main character, Pierre Aronnax, searches for a mysterious sea monster while fighting with scary undersea creatures. Although many undersea creatures have been depicted in the novel, one of the striking deep sea creatures

The Deep Sea Drilling Project (also known as DSDP) was the first of three international scientific ocean drilling programs that have operated for forty or more years that was designed to investigate the evolution of ocean basins by core drilling ocean sediments and the underlying oceanic crust. On June 24th, 1966, a Prime Contract was signed between the National Science Foundation (also known as NSF) and The Regents at The University of California was signed, this contract was the first phase in

Exploring the deep sea has captured the imagination of humankind ever since Leonardo da Vinci made drawings of a submarine more than 500 years ago in 1515. Since the early 20th century, people have been venturing into the ocean in submersible vehicles. However, it was not until 1960 when Swiss oceanographer and engineer Jacques Piccard and United States Navy lieutenant Don Walsh descended to the bottom of the Mariana Trench (10,915 meters) in the submersible Trieste that deep-sea exploration
