Benthos of Antarctica
21 March 2017
During ACE (Antarctica Circumnavigation Expedition) Noé Sardet and Sharif Mirshak took a series of photos of benthic creatures brought back from the depths! During this mission the ROPOS submersible was deployed and trawls were done to monitor animals around sub-Antarctic islands and near the Mertz glacier on the continent. A great diversity of species were discovered and photographed by the team. Many of which have extra-terrestrial shapes and colors… After shooting plankton in the arctic, the Macronauts dive deep into the Antarctica benthos!
