Researchers from Universiti Malaysia Sabah have partnered with the OceanX expedition vessel to explore ocean waters off Malaysia down to 1,500 metres. Using crewed submersibles, seafloor mapping tools, and environmental DNA sampling, the team is collecting deep-sea data intended to link deep ecosystems with nearby shallow coral reefs, filling a major gap in knowledge of the region's marine biodiversity.

Why now: The rare collaboration brings advanced deep-sea exploration technology to Malaysian waters, drawing interest from marine science communities.
