At the beginning of the year, an iceberg in Antarctica, which was about the size of Chicagos. Researchers then investigated the exposed seabed and found a flowering ecosystem thoroughly. They discovered corals and sea spins, but also a huge deep bench.
The spooky gigantic stygiomedusa gigantea has four band -like arms that are up to ten meters long, and a head with a diameter of more than a meter. The tentacle -ard usually lives in the midnight zone and therefore at a depth of 1000 to 4000 meters. The water temperature is between one and four degrees Celsius, only a few animals are resistant to the pressure.
The enormous jellyfish takes place worldwide, apart from the Northern Ice Sea and feeds on plankton and small fish. Your weight is more than 90 kilograms. Despite the size and mass, there are only a few recorded encounters with the animal since the first description in 1910. By 2022, 126 observations were recorded, including in the North and South Atlantic Ocean, for the American Pacific Coast and the Antarctic Peninsula.
Here you can see an earlier recording of the animal:
Communities have been for decades
Although it may be widespread, little is known about the way of life of the umbrella jellyfish. An international research team on board the FS Falkor of the Schmidt Ocean Institute has now performed the first detailed expedition under such a large area that falls under a floating malic. “We did not expect that we would find such a beautiful, flowering ecosystem. In terms of the size of the animals, the communities we have observed have been for decades, perhaps even hundreds of years,” said co-expedition leader Patricia Esquete of the Center for Environmental and Marine Studies (Dbio) in the University).
Moving very flows of nutrients
With a remote vehicle, the team observed the deep seabed in Antarctica for eight days. They also found ice fishing, huge marine spiders and squid. In 2021 the first sign of life was reported under the Schelftis.
The Antarctic ecosystems have been completely cut off from surface fabrics for centuries. Scientists suspect that marine currents also move nutrients to preserve life under the ice.
