"The Mystery of the Deep Sea Unveiled, Terrifying Creatures Inhabiting the Java Trench"

The deep sea is a habitat for animals with strange forms and unfamiliar names.

Dream - Each ocean on Earth has its deepest point. Such as the Pacific Ocean with the deepest point being the Mariana Trench with a depth of 10,973 meters below the surface of the water. The Atlantic Ocean has the deepest point called Milwaukee Deep, with a depth of 8,408 meters from the Puerto Rico Trench. Meanwhile, in the Indian Ocean, there is an unnamed area with a depth of 7,290 meters. In the Antarctic Ocean, the deepest area is located in the South Sandwich Trench, with a depth of 7,385 meters.

"In the Southern Ocean, the deepest region is located in the South Sandwich Trench, with a depth of 7,385 meters."

While in the Arctic Ocean, there is an area with a depth of 4,877 meters at Molloy Deep, Fram Strait.

"There is no sunlight. The temperature is cold, usually around 1-2°C. The pressure is also high, up to 15,000 pounds per square inch at the deepest point of the ocean."

Although so, Professor of Oceanography at the University of Hawaii, Jeff Drazen, said that the types of creatures that develop in extreme depths tend to be similar even though there are different species as well. According to him, certain creatures emerge at specific depths. "The bottom is controlled by animals adapting to pressure, and the upper part of its range can be controlled by predation or competition," he explained.

During the Gerringer expedition, Jeff and his colleagues sent investigators to the bottom of Sirena Deep and discovered a new species of Mariana snailfish.

The following is the translation of the 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The newly discovered creature is the hadal snailfish. Named after the hadal zone, a part of the ocean with depths ranging from about 6,000 to 10,970 meters and only found in ocean trenches.

This kind of creature is specifically adapted to survive in the depths. According to Gerringer, extreme pressure affects its body and damages enzymes and proteins.

Mariana snailfish and other hadal species are equipped to handle this with enzymes that work more effectively under very high pressure."

They also produce a molecule known as TMAO (trimethylamine N-oxide) to maintain pressure so as not to disrupt proteins in their bodies.

In the Mariana Trench, specifically at a depth of 488 meters, the cusk eel swims among decapod shrimps. As the surveillance camera dives deeper, this species makes way for snailfish and giant amphipods, and even deeper, different species of most amphipods and smaller shrimps emerge. In the Antarctic Ocean, its deepest part consists of the Java Trench in the Indian Ocean and the South Sandwich Trench.

The Southern Sandwich Trench is the only hadal zone on Earth that experiences sub-zero temperatures and has not been explored at all.

In these waters, researchers have discovered amphipods, snailfish, brittle stars, sea cucumbers, sponges, and crinoids.

In the Java Trench, the FDE lander camera observes abyssal snails, sea cucumbers, and strange creatures that appear like floating bursts of water in the dark waters, resembling ghost balloons. In the Fram Strait, fluctuations in freshwater and saltwater levels impact the population of phytoplankton and other microorganisms. Climate change has the greatest impact in the Arctic Ocean, with sea ice thickness continuously decreasing since 1990. Molloy Deep is essentially a very large crater where organic material accumulates and falls downward, but there are not many creatures inhabiting this barren area.

The only animal caught on camera is a type of sea cucumber known as a sea pig. This marine environment may seem very remote, but they are still influenced by human activities.

Gerringer is concerned that the effects of climate change, such as the melting of Arctic ice, and pollution can spread from the bottom to the surface.

There is already an amphipod found in the Mariana Trench called Eurythenes Plasticus.

Not only that, Vescovo also found plastic bags and candy wrappers in the same trench.

"The deep sea is closely related to the surface sea. Human activities such as plastic pollution and climate change have already affected the deep sea habitat, and it is important for us to understand, appreciate, and protect this ecosystem."
