So many incredibly weird and wonderful creatures found on Salas y Gómez seamount, and this is just the tip of the iceberg! theguardian.com/environment/20…

Greece becomes first European country to ban bottom trawling in marine parks theguardian.com/environment/20…

Bottom trawling set to continue on North Pacific's biodiversity hotspots - seamounts. DSCC comments on the latest failed proposal: news.mongabay.com/2024/04/no-pro…

Really looking forward to hearing all about discoveries of the deep sea, celebrating DSCC #DeepDay on 7th May 💙 Sign up to join!

In all the bad news this was a little ray of sunshine today - Conservation shown to be slowing biodiversity loss. Action sometimes works! #conservation #marine 🌊 bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Lack of action on #seamount protection from #NPFC earlier this month is a missed opportunity & an abdication of international commitments. States can #DefendTheDeep by withdrawing their vessels from bottom impact fishing on seamounts. Matthew Gianni news.mongabay.com/2024/04/no-pro…

🌊 ⛰️ #DYK that seamounts are critical to the ocean’s wellbeing? They act as navigational waypoints, foraging locations, and spawning grounds for numerous species including sharks, turtles, seabirds, whales and fish: deep-sea-conservation.org/explore/

Today's the day! Join the webinar later and dive into the marvels of the deep sea on #DeepDay 🐙

Our Damian Carrington interviewed hundreds of leading scientists to ask them what they think is happening to the climate. A major project with depressing results but important to know this so we can act. Do read and share theguardian.com/environment/ar…

On #DeepDay Seas At Risk published a 🆕 report showing the position of 22 European 🇪🇺 countries on #DeepSeaMining. 🔍 Just 3 years ago, not a single country in Europe defended a moratorium, precautionary pause, or ban. 🌊 Time for more to #DefendTheDeep. seas-at-risk.org/publications/t…

🪸 This #WorldOceanDay we give you the opportunity to name a new-to-science #DeepSea coral! This beautiful fan-like coral was discovered on Melville Bank seamount in the Southwest Indian Ocean by Dr Michelle Taylor How would you name it? Send your suggestion ➡️ deep-sea-conservation.org/coral-naming-c…

This week, delegates meet at #CAOFA, attending as an observer for the first time. CAOFA can safeguard one of the last great remaining wildernesses on our blue planet. 🐟 Find out more about CAOFA and why it’s so important, via WWF Global Arctic Programme. #DefendTheDeep arcticwwf.org/newsroom/featu…

🎥 It’s arrived! The new online series #BlueHorizons launches today. Ready to go below the ocean’s surface to explore the mysteries of its deep dark depths? The series will include a film produced for us by BBC StoryWorks on the deep wonders. Stay tuned! deep-sea-conservation.org/ocean-series-b…

New study finds that managing overfishing is among the most effective strategies to mitigate climate change 🐟 Read more from the study in Carbon Pulse International Programme on the State of the Ocean carbon-pulse.com/294174/

The percentage area of the global ocean floor that has been mapped to modern standards now stands at 26.1%. Just beyond one-quarter. Adding 4.34 million sq km from last year. Mapped areas in blue. Still to be mapped in black. Seabed 2030

📣 The wave of resistance against #DeepSeaMining is at an all-time high! Governments, financial institutions, scientists, companies, Indigenous groups & human rights activists say NO to the destructive industry. Add your voice to #DefendTheDeep➡️ defenthedeep.org

Groundbreaking new research has found that nodules on the seabed are producing "dark oxygen" which could have implications not just on illustrating the need for a deep-sea mining moratorium, but also on the origins of life on our planet (and others)! newscientist.com/article/244046…

In the dark depths of the ocean, untouched by sunlight, oxygen is being produced. Photosynthesis is impossible in such darkness, scientists are working to find a source. Findings suggest the electric charge from polymetalic nodules may separate hydrogen from oxygen in water. 🧵

More discoveries from the deep from Schmidt Ocean including a new seamount and at least 20 new species! All highlighting the need to preserve these vital ecosystems DSCC 💙 Read more on ABC News from Julia Jacobo abcnews.go.com/US/20-new-spec….

🚨 EXTENDED DEADLINE! You now have until the 8 October to suggest a name for the new deep-sea coral! Do you want to be the one who helps name this beautiful species? Take this opportunity now ➡️ deep-sea-conservation.org/coral-naming-c… Dr Michelle Taylor
