We have explored only a fraction of the deep ocean
- Only 5% of the ocean has been explored
- The deep ocean is a vast, unknown frontier
- What lies in the unexplored regions?
3
ANOTHER LAKE
- Extremely salty, dense brine can collect on the seafloor
- Creating pools that resemble underwater lakes
- Scientifically plausible, photorealistic visualization
4
IT HAS A SHORELINE
- Boundary between normal seawater and dense brine is visible
- Diver or ROV approaching the shoreline
- Unprecedented visual surprise
5
AND IT CAN BE DEADLY
- Extreme salinity and unusual chemistry
- Hostile environment for many organisms
- Dramatic transition between normal seawater and dense brine
