A thermocline is a visibile shift in the temperature of the water. It appears as though you're looking at an oily liquid. The temperature drops between layers can be quite dramatic

The amazing parrotfish lives above around 140 feet. They eat algae off the coral. Without parrotfish the ecosystem would crash and the ocean would die. Millions of years of parrotfish poop is primary component of most tropical beaches.

Deep sea mining is occurring off California, in 12,000 FSW, where ROVs are collecting nodules filled with rare Earth minerals including manganese. Several new species have been found since the mining began. The area is called the Clarion Clipperton Zone and the mining that is occuring there is controversial.

The coelocanth (see-low-canth) is the world's living fossil. They are my bucket list fish. They were first found in 1938 and have not evolved much in 400 million years. They were thought to have gone extinct 66 million years ago but survive today in the Indian Ocean at great depths.

Around 5000 feet there are many hydrothermal vents that spew vast amounts of chemicals into the surrounding water at a temperature of almost 700F. The life surrounding these vents have evolved to survive of chemosynthesis. They create energy without sunlight.

In 1939, The USS Squalus, a submarine, sunk off New Hampshire. Adm. Charles "Swede" Momsen and his divers used a chamber, largely of his design to bring the survivors up after two days underwater in 240 feet off of the isle of shoals. Four divers: Chief Machinist’s Mate William Badders, Chief Boatswain’s Mate Orson L. Crandall, Chief Metalsmith James H. McDonald and Chief Torpedoman John Mihalowski were awarded the Medal of Honor.
