Megabenthic ecology of abyssal polymetallic nodule fields [PDF]
, 2019 Abyssal polymetallic nodule fields constitute an unusual deep-sea habitat. The mix of soft sediment and the hard substratum provided by nodules increases the complexity of these environments, and is thought to promote the occurrence of some of the most biologically diverse seafloor assemblages in the abyss.

Global distribution and metal endowment of seafloor polymetallic nodules
Abstract Metals of strategic and economic importance, including nickel, copper, and cobalt, accumulate on the deep ocean seabed in the form of polymetallic nodules. These deposits, largely in international waters, are classified as the common heritage of humankind as per the widely ratified United Nations (UN) Law of the Sea.
