deep in da oceans...

Inquisitive behavior of human has led to exploration as well as investigation of various difficult to access areas in da oceans . But still it remains da least explored area in da ocean. The major oceans are Indian, Pacific, Atlantic, southern and Arctic.



Many of us wonder wht might be inside da vast oceans.. what might be below the depth of 3,000-4000 meters...(4000 mtrs is da avg depth of oceans..). Da deepest ocean is Southern ocean nd da largest is Pacific.....which means that there is still lot to be known ...

But how do we go beneath??? the environment is not suitable...there is no light .In addition to this as we go deeper in da water pressure on chest and lungs increases. We all have heard about the scuba divers who carry a source of breathing gas . But this can be done at da most till few meters . Diving to a depth of 318.25 meters is da scuba record (by Nuno Gomes) .




Another way u can go deep down der is by means of submersibles , used mainly by marine scientists and oceanographers. They can go to a limited depth , are smaller and can hold only few people. Modern submersibles use floodlights as a source of light and mechanical arms to pick up things from floor.They can be used to photograph organisms at more than 3,900 meters deep. Submarines (watercraft) are considered still more advantageous .......

Most are familiar with da disasters like titanic it was below 3,600 mtrs . To search this a robot vehicle called Argo , tht used side scan sonar and video cameras searched along da ocean floor.

There are many interesting things below the vast water layers. Some of fascinating scientific topic include hydrothermal vents , undersea volcanoes etc...
It is very surprising to know tht there is life at deeper regions also.
