New
Hebrides trench: First look at unexplored deep sea
By Rebecca Morelle Science reporter, BBC World Service
Scientists have had the first look at the life that
thrives in one of the deepest spots in the ocean. An expedition to the
unexplored New Hebrides trench in the Pacific has revealed that cusk eels and
crustaceans teem more than 7,000m (23,000ft) down. The team used an unmanned
lander fitted with cameras to film the deep-sea creatures. The scientists said
the ecology of this trench differed with other regions of the deep that had
been studied.
