New paper out on the impact from a deep sea mining test in the Pacific Ocean. Great collaboration with the Natural History Museum London and the National Oceanography Centre Southampton . www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Much has been speculated on the impact of industrial deep-sea mining on marine ecosystems. This study led by @evastewart.bsky.social provides some direct empirical evidence.

Thank you Tori!
After 5 years of sample collection and analysis our paper examining the impacts of an industrial #DeepSea mining trial on seafloor #biodiversity is published! Read here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Selection of images of Paulasterias mcclaini, an orange starfish with six arms, including scanning electron microscope images of pedicellaria
New paper! We report the first confirmed Atlantic record of the very cool starfish family Paulasteriidae from an inactive sulphide area on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, collected as part of the ULTRA project at @noc.ac.uk

While exploring Ahyi Seamount, the team spotted this Diadema setosum #urchin nestled in an algae bed around 74 meters deep. These #marineinvertebrates are known for their extremely long, black, hollow spines interspersed with stinging, pincher-like pedicellariae.

Paper out today from the #NHMDeepSea team on these strange little worms from the abyss. First of 3 highly technical papers on them, possibly not headline-makers but science is all in the detail. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Needle felted Barbie Pig!
Barbie pigs are a new scientific discovery ⭐ They are sea creatures found in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone. This site has been proposed for deep-sea mining : (

A great paper, albeit with a bleak message, that recovery in the deep sea, if possible at all, will occur on decadal to century scales. #deepsea #marinelife #science www.nature.com/articles/s41...
