We are exploring the role of hydrothermal vents in driving the evolution of novel adaptations in deep-sea animals, throughout the 500+ million year history of complex life on our planet. In many parts ...
The findings, published in Current Biology, are based on an experiment involving ... to protect the marine animals that are threatened by plastic debris in the sea, mostly through entanglement ...
The experiment ... only works in clear water. Deep-sea mining activity, Ms Stenvers explained, is likely to change the conditions that these animals have evolved in.
