Humans have been sailing across the sea for centuries... yet we've barely begun to map what lies beneath. Let's dive into the farthest reaches of the ocean, for a real high-pressure situation ...

Ocean depths About 71% of the Earth is covered in water and the average depth is 12,080 feet — which is nearly as deep as Mount Fuji is tall, according to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute.

Called subsea desalination, the idea is to remove the salt from water in the deep sea. If it worked at scale, the technology ...

It's all fairly basic. If there's enough pressure discrepancy, a pumpkin that reached a certain depth would implode.

Previous studies also suggested that the concentration of trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), a pressure-stabilizing substance, increases linearly with depth—a central tenet of deep-sea research.

It highlights the importance of pressure-retaining sampling and isobaric enzymatic assays and provides valuable insights into microbial ectoenzymatic activities in the deep ocean.

Ever wonder how deep-sea fish and other animals are able to survive in an environment where the water pressure would kill us humans? Well, the secret lies in a chemical that occurs naturally in ...
