A Spooky Deep-Sea Round-Up

🎃 Mr Pumpkin 🎃 During the Hidden Ocean 2016: Chukchi Borderlands expedition, the science party collected this orange ctenophore affectionately dubbed by the expedition team as “Mr. Pumpkin.” Image courtesy of Oceaneering-DSSI.

Mr Pumpkin is headlining this week. And in terrifying news, Zombies are on the move at DOSI HQ – but fear not because the Deep-Sea Round-Up shall continue to haunt your inboxes for eons to come. There are all sorts of petrifying new papers; from nightmares beyond national jurisdiction to haunted vents, Halloween has reached the deepest, darkest parts of our ocean. The deep sea features less in the media this week, which sacrifices many of its column inches to COP26 – although, of course, deep-sea mining isn’t entirely forgotten with new perspectives shared.

Plenty of covens, hocus pocus and superstitions to be found inside. ENJOY and it’s a FAREWELL from Hannah!
