Investigating newly discovered #HydrothermalVents at depths of 3,000 meters off #Svalbard

"At depths greater than 3000m, the remote-controlled #submersible vehicle MARUM-QUEST took samples from the newly discovered #hydrothermal field... hydrothermal fluids form the basis for #chemosynthesis, which is employed by organisms in #symbiosis with #bacteria."

"While carbon fiber has been used in everything from cars to rockets, no one had ever dived in a deep-water carbon-fiber submersible. Rush wanted to be the first."

For WIRED, Mark Harris dives into tens of thousands of internal #OceanGate emails and documents to piece together what happened in the years leading up to the #Titan #submersible tragedy in June 2023: wired.com/story/titan-submersi

#Corals and #sponges are hotspots of #ReactiveOxygenSpecies in the deep sea: Lina Taenzer et al. academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/art

"authors took direct measurements of #superoxide in water closely surrounding corals, by bringing a one-of-a-kind deep-sea chemiluminescent sensor called SOLARIS, into the ocean over 2,000 meters deep, on board the #Alvin #submersible."

A new way to track #MarineSnow blizzards: New #submersible provides insights into how organic #carbon moves through the ocean #TwilightZone whoi.edu/oceanus/feature/a-new

"This storm of 'marine snow' consists of tiny particles of organic matter; carbon-rich fragments of dead tissue & feces from #plankton, #fish, & other #animals... As these particles sink down, they become an essential source of food for other marine creatures—and in the process, play a crucial role in the regulation of #climate."
