Deep Sea Exploration refers to the scientific study and investigation of the ocean’s depths, typically below 200 meters (656 feet). This area, known as the deep ocean, poses unique challenges due to extreme pressure, low temperatures, and lack of light. Researchers use various technologies and methods such as submersibles, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to explore these environments. The goals of deep sea exploration include understanding marine biodiversity, discovering new species, studying geological formations, and examining underwater ecosystems. This field of research is crucial for gaining insights into the Earth’s processes, climate change, and potential resources like minerals and pharmaceuticals found in deep-sea organisms.
The rare "black devil" anglerfish, Melanocetus johnsonii, was unexpectedly sighted near Tenerife, marking a potential first daylight sighting. This deep-sea creature typically resides at depths of 200 to 2,000 meters,…
