Welcome - Deep Sea Biology
OCEA 4370 Deep Sea Biology
CREDIT HOURS: 3
We focus on the biology of organisms inhabiting the deep sea: physiological adaptations to the physicochemical and geological environment; spatial and temporal distributions of biological assemblages; and regulatory factors of these assemblages, such as currents, food availability, reproduction and recruitment. Also, we delve into unique habitats, such as hydrothermal vents.
