DeepZoo: A cost‐effective and modular sampler for ecological studies in the deep ocean

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the structure and dynamics of deep‐ocean communities requires effective sampling of pelagic organisms in near‐bottom waters. These dispersive organisms contribute to biodiversity, connectivity and ecosystem recovery. Yet, current sampling methods remain constrained by size, cost, and depth, leaving key questions unanswered in ...
