About the Expedition

Close your eyes and take a deep imaginary dive to the ocean abyss, preferably in early summer. No matter how hot it is where you might be, the abyss at this time is probably experiencing a short-lived blizzard of marine snow.

The deep sea has its own climate it would appear, and a dense storm of fluffy particles coats the seabed, only to be gobbled up by deep sea creatures soon after.

Technological advances allow multiple ways for observing the planet and its oceans from the comfort of an armchair and the click of a button, but understanding marine snow and how it links to the climate we are more familiar with, still requires ocean-going expeditions, and occasionally getting wet.

The countdown is on for the “Down to the Twilight Zone” Expedition.

Join the scientists and crew, as they set sail on the 31st May 2013.
