Ever wonder what lurks beneath the surface? One million species live in the sea—but we’ve only discovered about one-third of them.
Which ceatures live where the sun doesn't reach? What do they eat? How do we research them? The answers may surprise you: bit.ly/4hIZKQX
ALT NOAA Fisheries infographic showing "Creatures of the Deep." The graphic shows different ocean depth zones: Sunlight Zone, Twilight Zone, Midnight Zone, and Abyssal Zone, with illustrations of various marine species that live there, including sharks, whales, and jellyfish.

Deep-sea corals thrive without the help of photosynthetic algae. Instead, they survive on tiny bits of organic matter drifting down from the surface. These slow-growing, filter-feeding corals can grow into towering structures that last for thousands of years.🪸

#DYK the ocean plays a vital role in the carbon cycle?
The #ocean constantly exchanges CO₂ with the atmosphere and is often called a carbon sink because it stores more carbon than it releases.🌊

Our "weird oxygen production" paper is finally out!
The polymetallic nodule-covered seafloor is making oxygen. We don't know exactly how - lots of fun work ahead! - but a new source of O2 may help fuel the deep-sea biosphere.
👏 to @ProfAKSweetman for leading the charge 👏
