paper‚ I choose to explore the topic of life in deep ocean environments such as the Mariana’s Trench thus the article I read was “Life in an Ocean Extreme” by Eric Epping. This article discussed the high activity of microbial life ing these deep ocean invironments. As foundation of may deep sea benthic communities depend upon algae and bacteria that grow within the photic zone of the ocean’s surface‚ finding highly active living communities so deep in the ocean was unexpectided.

EK115008S The Deep Sea (2012) It is odd that a planet with 65% of its surface covered by ocean and 57% by 1000+m of deep-sea is called the ‘Earth’. Some 49% of the globe’s surface is 3-6 km below the ocean waves and the average ocean depth is 3.8 km. The deep sea is dark‚ devoid of plants but home to many animals which have been collected on hooks and lines‚ in nets‚ from the stomachs of other deep-sea beasts‚ viewed and photographed from tethered cameras‚ ROVs and deep-sea submersibles.

Deep Exploration: Argumentative Essay Have you ever thought of what was at the bottom of the ocean‚ or far in space? Have you ever wondered what kinds of creatures lurk in the Mariana Trench? Many of these questions can be answered if you support one simple thing: Deep Exploration! Deep Exploration would possibly allow us to find a new species‚ or even a species we thought was extinct! It’s a risky business‚ but think of all of the knowledge we would gain from it! Almost all of our technology

particles that make up the waves all move in identical orbital patterns and only when waves become unstable this motion is destroyed. The course also discussed how the sun light plays a vital role in the sea and how other forms of life depend on chemosynthesis rather than photosynthesis in the deep ocean. The vast life in the ocean made me realize how little my knowledge and experience was in this field. Writing this reflection paper made me realize how much I enjoyed this diverse subject of science

Deep Ocean Mining Part 2 Deep ocean mining is an alternative to land mining in search of minerals such as copper‚ gold‚ manganese or cobalt among other minerals. The minerals on land are being depleted owing to the increasing demand for these minerals‚ and this makes the deep sea bed an alternative to the exploitation of minerals. The fact that the water bodies cover a huge part of earth’s surface makes deep sea mining even more

“If deep-sea fishing is the most dangerous of all civilian occupations‚ it is especially so during winter months or during storms at any time of year.” Yet‚ “risk taking is something they are paid to accept” (Cockerham‚ 131). [Epigram] As depicted by Sebastian Junger’s nonfiction account‚ The Perfect Storm‚ deep-sea fishing requires a level of determination that can override scientific data and superstitious judgment‚ in the interest of getting money. He tells the story of the Andrea Gail‚ which

extreme conditions. The word “abyss” is taken from a Greek word‚ which means “bottomless sea”. The abyssal zone itself is located between 2000 and 6000 meters underneath the ocean surface. It is located under the bathyal zone and above the hadal zone. In this depth‚ sunlight is unable to penetrate through. Therefore‚ this zone is filled with complete and perpetual darkness. At the same time‚ in a location this deep‚ the pressure is unbearable to humans. It is written that‚ “Because water pressure increases
