Context The ecological implications of multiscale spatial heterogeneity remain poorly resolved in many parts of the ocean, especially at abyssal (3000–6000 m) and hadal (> 6000 m) depths. Seascape eco...

Phylogenetic endemism is the most efficient single criterion to maximise global phylogenetic diversity within the smallest land area, and can be complemented with the spatial scaling of phylogenetic ...

The discovery of chemosynthesis-based benthic communities at depths of 5,800 m to 9,533 m in the Kuril–Kamchatka and western Aleutian trenches challenges traditional perspectives on the energy sources...

A new open-access resource, the Marine Organismal Body Size (MOBS) Database, is giving scientists, conservationists, and the public an unprecedented look at the true scale of ocean life—literally.

Half a century after the world's first deep sea mining tests picked nodules from the seafloor off the US east coast, the damage has barely begun to heal.

New study led by the UK’s National Oceanography Centre (NOC) and the Natural History Museum has revealed long-term impacts of deep-sea mining and first signs of biological recovery 44-years after deep...
