“Biogeochemical” profiling reveals the impact of marine #heatwaves
This #science depends entirely on autonomous “biogeochemical” profiling floats that drift and dive through the ocean, collecting data in near-real time as part of the U.S.-led Global Ocean #Biogeochemical (GO-BGC) Array, headed by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (#MBARI) in California.

A New, ‘Adorable’ #DeepSea #Fish Swims Into View
The bumpy #snailfish, discovered 10,000 feet down off the coast of California, shows that not all denizens of the abyss are frightening. The #bumpysnailfish was among three new #snailfish species discovered off the coast of #California, at a depth of over 10,000 feet, from an expedition led by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (#MBARI).

"#MBARI’s team were exploring the outer reaches of #MontereyCanyon, approximately 100 km offshore of Central #California, with MBARI’s remotely operated vehicle Doc Ricketts at a depth of 3,268 m when they observed this small snailfish swimming above the abyssal seafloor... The bumpy #snailfish has a distinctive pink color, a round head with large eyes, wide pectoral fins with long uppermost rays, and a bumpy texture."

Bloody-belly comb jellies, Lampocteis cruentiventer, are #ctenophores, not true jellies. Like other comb jellies, they navigate through the water by beating their shimmering, hair-like cilia. These crimson beauties are found in the twilight zone, using their blood-red stomachs to hide a belly full of glowing (bioluminescent) prey. At these depths, red is nearly invisible, turning their vibrant color into the perfect camouflage.

Weekend #Plankton #Factoid 🦠🦐
There were recent articles about a new #species Bathydevius caudactylus, nicknamed Mystery Mollusc. In fact this bioluminescent pelagic #nudibranch has been studied by friends at #MBARI for 20 yrs to describe it. Most "sea slugs" are benthic, but this one swims in the deep #ocean midwater, using a bag-like hood to capture prey. The name incorporates devious (hard to find) and dactylus (refering to "finger" projections on the foot). #science
