Arctic Ocean Seabed
A rock with basket star Gorgonocephalus sp. sitting on it and to the right the soft coral Gersemia rubiformis and brittle stars between the pebbles. This image, made with a 'drop-camera' from the Esperanza, shows a section of the seabed just north of Hinlopen Strait in the Arctic Ocean. Greenpeace uses state of the art recording techniques to explore the region at depths of between 90 and 190 metres deep within a 5-10 mile circle off 80° 25' N 15¼ 32' E . Their cameras reveal a seabed rich in biodiversity. Greenpeace is calling for the area of the Arctic Ocean historically protected year round by sea ice to be closed to all industrial activity, including destructive fishing.
