Scientists find marine life thriving on World War II explosives in the Baltic Sea

An undersea submersible has spotted crabs, worms and fish thriving on the surfaces of World War II explosives thought to be toxic to marine life.

Gehe heute ins Hühnermanhatten in Halle. Da läuft heut Metal/Hardcore.

Drownship (mit paar Leuten von Ex-Caleya)
und
Benthic (mit paar Leuten von Ex-Destiny/Destiny Program).
Geht glei los!

Evolution of #DeepSea Anglerfish Illuminated https://today.ucsd.edu/story/evolution-of-deep-sea-anglerfish-illuminated-in-new-study

Reduced evolutionary constraint accompanies ongoing radiation in deep-sea #anglerfishes https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-024-02586-3

"deep-sea #pelagic #anglerfishes evolved from a #benthic ancestor and quickly underwent rapid diversification... these results demonstrate that spectacular evolutionary radiations can unfold even within environments with few ecological resources and demanding physiological challenges."

Evolution of Deep-Sea Anglerfish Illuminated in New Study

A multi-institutional team of biologists has produced new insights into the evolution of anglerfish, deep-sea dwellers known for their extraordinary adaptations.

A look back at my 1st paper in 2021, when my 1st PhD chapter was out, on the role of body size and mesohabitats productivities in the linkage of #pelagic & #benthic systems, with David Boukal.

Hello to new Blue people! I'm an artist who works a lot with researchers on all sorts of environmental things. Currently artist-in-residence with Convex Seascape Survey looking at #benthic #invertebrates One of my recent pieces made together with refugees and asylum seekers. Called SeaBed. 🧪🦑
