New technology reveals the hidden world of marine snow 🌊❄️🔬
The ocean and its inhabitants remove carbon from the atmosphere, playing a key role in regulating Earth’s climate. A big part of the ocean’s carbon calculus still remains a mystery: How much carbon do sinking bits of organic material lock away in the deep sea?
MBARI’s new SINKER imaging system provides real-time observations of the tiny particles of marine snow that drive carbon storage in the deep sea. Equipped with advanced microscopes and cameras, this innovative imaging system will help scientists better understand the ecological and biological processes that help carbon sink to the deep sea and fill critical gaps in our understanding of Earth’s carbon cycle.

Returning to the Arctic ❄️
For more than two decades, MBARI scientists and engineers have been part of an international team working to answer questions about the processes that shape the seafloor in the Arctic.
Last month, researchers from MBARI’s Continental Margin Processes Team, Seafloor Mapping Lab, CoMPAS Lab, and Seafloor Processes Team participated in a 30-day leg aboard the ice-breaking research vessel Araon with longtime collaborators from the Korea Polar Research Institute and the Geological Survey of Canada.
This year’s expedition enlisted a diverse array of MBARI technologies to better understand the dynamics of underwater permafrost formation and decomposition in the Canadian Beaufort Sea. Our research is gathering information that will help communities, resource managers, and policymakers make decisions about underwater infrastructure in this region.

Monitoring our changing ocean 🌡️
The ocean and its inhabitants play an important role in cycling carbon and regulating Earth’s climate. Understanding how rising temperatures impact the ocean’s ability to lock away carbon is critical to modeling our changing climate.
A new study from researchers at MBARI and the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science, with an interdisciplinary team of collaborators from the Hakai Institute, Xiamen University, the University of British Columbia, the University of Southern Denmark, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada, aimed to understand the impacts of marine heatwaves on the foundation of the ocean food web.
Pairing data from robotic floats deployed as part of the Global Ocean Biogeochemical Array with eDNA samples from plankton surveys, the team found that marine heatwaves can reshape ocean food webs, which in turn can slow the transport of carbon to the deep sea and hamper the ocean’s ability to buffer against climate change.
With climate change contributing to more frequent and intense marine heatwaves, this work underscores the need for sustained, long-term ocean monitoring of our ocean to understand and predict how future marine heatwaves will impact ecosystems, fisheries, and climate. The GO-BGC project, led by MBARI and funded by the US National Science Foundation, is a critical part of this effort, with a global network of floats monitoring ocean health with data publicly available for scientific research.

Best line: "So far as we know there is no Tooth Fairy in the deep ocean."

This is how you would look like if there's too much pressure in your life.

Its sad they don't show anything like this on TV.. Everything is about 'rare' footage, dramatic music, and 10 cutscenes in a minute ..

This is fascinating. Despite this I would never, ever want to run into one of these underwater.

I've been drawing this animal for a long time, always tried to imagine their movements and i'm glad I got to see it in different angles, thx

deep sea creatures are so interestingly horrifying looking. I wonder why they have to look so scary when nothing can see them anyway

I wonder how creatures like this can live so far deep, it almost seems as if the pressure doesnt affect them.

Why are there so many comments saying this fish looks fake
