Decade-Long Experiment Illuminates Ocean's Mysterious Deep Reefs
Original: A Decade-Long Experiment Is Unlocking the Mysteries of the Ocean’s ‘Deep Reefs’ https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.wire
A research project running for roughly ten years is shedding new light on 'deep reefs' — little-studied coral and rocky reef ecosystems lying below the depth ranges divers typically reach. As Wired reports, the long-term experiment is helping scientists understand how these dim, poorly explored habitats function and how they may respond to warming, acidifying oceans.
Why now: Fresh coverage of a rare long-term study revealing little-known deep reef ecosystems at a time of intense concern over ocean health.
