	Chimaeras with Brit Finucci	02 Aug 2024	01:07:12
To finish off our cartilaginous fish mini-series, we’re getting into our personal favourite: the chimera. These little oddballs are closely related to sharks and rays but often go unmentioned. They are full of intriguing quirks, from lacking a stomach to possessing a reproductive appendage on their head! We speak with Dr Brit Finucci from NIWA, a lover of deep water sharks and champion kicker of heads (she is also a competitive Muay Thai fighter) all about these fascinating fishes and why they are so interesting. We also speak with Leo Richards from Natural World Facts about his journey into making deep sea documentaries. If you have ever searched for deep-sea videos online, then you will have definitely come across Leo’s content, as his captivating way of sharing the deep-sea has reached millions of people. Talking about high-quality content, The Professor has been joined offshore by a team of filmmakers, ready to capture the latest in hadal research. So expect some highly professional footage to come out in the next few weeks! Finally, Andrew talks us through some physical features of the Chimera, including its pretty hefty defensive spine and some gnarly stories about things getting impaled.

	PRESSURISED: 021 - Deep sea images and AI with Kakani Katija	26 Apr 2024	00:28:07
Our short and to the point PRESSURISED version of episode 21. If you don't have time for the full episode and want to get right to the science without any of our waffle, this is the place to be! Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/021-ai We have often talked about how difficult it is the get data from the deep sea… but would you believe that the bottleneck to our understanding of the deep ocean, at least as far as visual data, is processing those images? Turning a picture of the deep sea into a list of species, habitat type, sediment type etc. is a time-consuming process that requires a wide range of skilled people. Due to time/funding constrains a lot of valuable information is lost. A team looking at a specific question will have lots of information in their data that other teams could use. A picture is worth a thousand data points. We chat with Dr Kakani Katija, the co-founder of FathomNet, an open-source repository for labelled deep-sea imaging data. The platform is still in beta but it is hoped that it will allow scientists to easily and usefully share their amassed data in a single and easily searchable place. But what about that processing bottleneck? The tech-savvy listener may have noticed that a massive collection of labelled image data is exactly the sort of thing you need to train a Machine Learning or Deep Learning algorithm. Can we automate a lot of the time-consuming image processing and let the experts focus on the new and unusual stuff? It’s at this cutting edge that things get exciting and we may be at the cusp of a marine science renaissance. We also launch our podcast merch! Please do send in any pics of you wearing the merch. We find the idea of real people in the actual world wearing this so surreal!

	003 - Aesthetics of the deep sea with artist Alex Gould	03 Sep 2020	01:04:42
Can we use art to help people engage with the deep sea? We stop trying to explain things and let artist Alex Gould (alexandragould.co.uk) help us see deep-sea animals for the first time all over again. We talk about the aesthetic of deep-sea fish, is it shaped by our expectations? Can we save the blobfish from bullying? Can art help us with the horror of tongue eating parasites and fish absorbing their boyfriends? Sponsor Armatus Oceanic
	002 - Exploring the Mariana Trench. Guest: Don Walsh	06 Aug 2020	01:03:25
On January 23, 1960 Don Walsh and Jacques Piccard were the first people to dive to the deepest point in the ocean, Challenger Deep. Would you believe that Don's full of other stories at least as interesting as that? We talk science communication and exploration with Don, realise that actually we do know a lot about the Mariana Trench, and we cross the equator. podcast@armatusoceanic.com Music by Harvey Jones
	001 - The moon analogy. Guest: Monty Priede	03 Jul 2020	00:53:23
‘We know more about the moon than the deep sea’ isn't just a bad analogy, it’s wrong. We talk scientific writing and Alan confesses why, after becoming the world’s deepest Brit, he was hunched emerging from the sub. podcast@armatusoceanic.com Absence of sharks Music Harvey Jones

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/045-hagfish What has no jaw, inverted horizontal teeth, saggy skin and can produce litres of suffocating slime when touched? it’s the episode you’ve been waiting for… The hagfish special is here. Dr Thom is back from his stint offshore, and The Professor pretty much now lives in a submarine, but that hasn’t stopped them from finally reuniting to make this special episode all about hagfish. We’ve talked about them a lot on the show, and decided it’s time to pass them the mic. So expect lots of slimy stories, toothy tales and a whole load of hagfish trivia you never knew you needed. There’s lots of updates after so many recent deep sea expeditions, with Thom’s latest cruise discovering many new species and Alan sharing live updates from the sub. Keep up with their latest goings-on via twitter! We speak to the king of the hagfish, Professor Doug Fudge, who has been studying these critters and their (in)famous slime for decades. We ask all the interesting questions like: how do they make so much slime, do they have any predators and why do they look like that?

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/044-alan-takes-over It finally happened… we brought you an episode which was recorded almost completely offshore. With Dr Thom in the Bounty Trough and the Professor somewhere in the Pacific, this episode is quite the wild card. Whilst Thom has been busy crocheting fishing nets (that’s science folks), Alan was left to take the reins and he decided to go a little off-piste. We bring it back to the good old days with one of Alan’s (in)famous rants. This one is titled: When does the sea become the deep sea, and why it needs to be changed. Expect to hear about the history of why we decided what makes the deep-sea ‘deep’, and why it might not make sense anymore in our modern world. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this and whether you agree with Alan. Finally, we check in with a key individual in the online deep-sea community space: Jeff Day. Jeff’s been on our radar for years with his immense knowledge of deep-sea cephalopods and we thought we’d finally hand him the mic. He talks to us all about his love of deep sea creatures and how he contributes to the field in unconventional ways.

Are you looking for a podcast episode that contains the return of the blobfish, golden crochet hooks and rare deep-sea squid? Well, look no further than this episode of The Deep-Sea Podcast! It finally happened… we brought you an episode which was recorded almost completely offshore. With Dr Thom in the Bounty Trough and the Professor somewhere in the Pacific, this episode is quite the wild card.

Expect to hear about the history of why we decided what makes the deep-sea ‘deep’, and why it might not make sense anymore in our modern world. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this and whether you agree with Alan. Dr Thom does make an appearance in this episode, giving us a run-down of how the research cruise is going (SPOILER: The blobfish is back). Plus, we hear about the original blobfish and how exactly it came to be an internet sensation, from the man who was there: new fan favourite, Andrew Stewart. Finally, we check in with a key individual in the online deep-sea community space: Jeff Day. Jeff’s been on our radar for years with his immense knowledge of deep-sea cephalopods and we thought we’d finally hand him the mic.

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/019-squid As promised in the Christmas special, we call the ‘squid-phone’ – a special line used by scientists globally when they seem something strange and squiddy. On the other end of that line is Mike Vecchione, the expert on cephalopods. We talk giant and colossal squid (to audible groans from Mike); the bigfin squid (Magnapinna), most famous for being the squid with the long trailing arms that’s often used as an example of terrifying deep-sea creatures, but also a species, genus and Family that Mike described and would love more sightings of.

	Offshore stories: Tales of typhoons and science in submarines	02 Feb 2024	00:53:36
From being repeatedly thrown off your bed in a storm, to seeing blue whales out of your porthole, working at sea doesn't leave you short of stories. And with Dr Thom and the Professor both heading offshore soon, they thought what better time to share some of their sea stories. From tips on how to hold your pee for 12+ hours, to tales of typhoons, this episode is jam-packed with real-life tales from decades of working offshore. In deep sea news: Norway has decided to go ahead with deep sea mining, cold coral reefs are being discovered, and hoards of marine fungi have been found in the twilight zone! But more importantly than all of that: the Professor was awarded an OBE! His sword and noble steed are currently in the post (first class), and we’re hoping they reach him in Perth from the Palace. We’ve also started a new segment with long-time friend of the show, Andrew Stewart who has an interesting hobby of manufacturing cod-liver shark-liver oil. Expect more unexpected stories from Andrew in future episodes! Finally, we want to say thanks again for your support! We have lots of exciting upcoming episodes all about the (in)famous hagfish, deep sea sharks and our favourite: chimera. Stay tuned!

Scientific paper & news article Hagfish genome sequenced Largest cold-water coral reef to date has been found Guest info Andrew’s bio Andrew’s blog on the Gut Stuffer 2000 Soundtrack of the month A Song About an Anglerfish - Hank Green Glossary Cold-water corals - Deep-water corals (or cold-water corals) grow in water temperatures of 4 - 12°C. Unlike shallow water corals, they do not depend on a symbiotic algae (zooxanthellae) for growth and survival, resulting in slower growth. Deep-sea mining - The process of extracting manganese nodules from the deep ocean floor. Hagfish - An eel-shaped jawless fish. Hagfish are marine predators and scavengers. Hull - A hull is the watertight body of a ship. Megalodon - An extinct species of giant shark that lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago. Metagenomes - Genetic material taken from the environment rather than from one individual. OBE - (Order of the British Empire) is a British award rewarding contributions to the arts and sciences, work with charitable and welfare organisations, and public service outside the civil service.

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/018-sound We think of the deep sea as an eerily quiet and spooky place but that isn’t completely true, animal communication, seismic activity, human noise and even the sound of rain and waves from 10 km above. We chat with undersea audio expert Dr David Barclay about the fascinating audio properties of the deep ocean. As we are talking audio data on an audio medium, lets have some fun with a game of ‘what can we grenad-hear’ where Thom tries to guess the deep-sea sound.

	The Deco-Stop: 003 - Eco-anxiety	05 Jan 2024	01:25:28
THE DECO-STOP: A DEEPER LOOK INTO THE HUMANS BEHIND DEEP SEA SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. This is our third Deco-Stop episode, and this time we’re focusing on eco-anxiety. We are currently in the midst of an ecological crisis, but eco-anxiety is something of a mental health crisis in response. Many of us who work in this space (and many of us who don’t) are feeling these emotions, including plenty of our listeners who have got in touch to share their experiences. As such, we’ve wanted to make this episode for some time, but during it’s production, it became a far bigger subject than we were ready for. One thing that did become apparent, is that this is a dangerous subject and it is something that can do real harm. In this episode, we share with you some stories of how different individuals have influenced their lives in a direct response to eco-anxiety. Plus, we hear from the perspective of a psychotherapist who specialises in the field of climate & eco-crisis psychology. However, this is not a list of answers, and the priority is your health and safety and as the listener. We hope that this episode offers an insight towards such a big and difficult topic. Whilst it won’t leave you with a complete set of instructions on how to fix the world, we hope you find it comforting that there is a huge number of people who are feeling the same as you are. It’s a lrngthy one, so grab a cup of tea, give your local tree a quick hug, and tune in to this beefy episode of the Deco-Stop. MEET OUR GUESTS CAROLINE HICKMAN Psychotherapist and lecturer at the University of Bath working in the field of climate psychology. Her research focuses on eco-anxiety, distress about the climate and ecological crisis in children and young people. https://www.caroline-hickman.com/index DAN DE KLERK Co-founder of Nomadic Permaculture, an organisation based in Picton, New Zealand that offers consultancy and courses in how to live a more sustainable lifestyle in harmony with your local community and ecosystem. https://nomadicpermaculture.org/ BRIAN BERNEMAN Wellness coach and co-founder of Conscious Action, a collective based in Auckland, New Zealand that encourages people to make meaningful and achievable changes in their lives, to help the planet.

That’s where most of our adventures happen, that’s where most of the exciting discoveries and firsts happen and it’s where we meet some of the most interesting people. We want you to have a great time at sea too and not be put off by a bad first experience. Poor packing or a faux pas could spoil the whole experience and we don’t want that. We put together some advice for your first trip. Forgive us if parts seem patronising, they are all things we have seen spoil someone’s trip and with everything else to worry about, it’s easy to forget the simple stuff. We chat with Larkin, a deck-hand turned youtuber about life at sea and sharing that experience through her videos. What is her average day like at sea and how’s the morning commute when your office is a small response vessel chasing a submarine 10,000 m below you?

	The legendary Don Walsh with Rob McCallum	01 Dec 2023	00:27:39
"Exploration is curiosity acted upon." — Don Walsh In this month’s episode, we’re honouring the late great Don Walsh, who sadly left us this month. You may have noticed that we hadn’t heard from Don in a good few months. He had a couple of ops that required some getting over, but that wasn’t going to slow him down. In September he was going through the Northwest Passage, a trip he had attempted 2 previous times but had been scuppered by weather and vessel trouble. Don’s unwavering commitment to deep-sea exploration meant that the monthly sea stories were no longer possible but we weren’t going to let the legendary Don Walsh sneak off without some fanfare, not after everything he’s done for us. We were putting together a Christmas episode where we could share some drinks and stories with Don and give him a proper send-off. While we were sorting out dates that everyone could do, Don passed. 92, nodding off in his favourite chair at the remote home he loved, surrounded by nature. Over the last 3 years it’s been a privilege to have Don recount one of his endless list of stories with us every month, stories that always made us smile. In some attempt to raise a toast to him and all that he’s done for the community, we bring you this Don Special episode. He will be missed. Legend.

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/016-biodiscovery We are in desperate need for new bioactive compounds. Super bugs are on the rise as evolution finds a way of thwarting our antibiotics. We are also continually on the hunt for compounds that can fight disease, ease suffering or get your teeth super white. The natural world has been experimenting for millions of years and has come up with solutions far more elegant than we could come up with. The ocean, and in particular the deep ocean, may be the best place to look for new compounds but is this a threat to the ocean? It is often mentioned alongside seabed trawling, climate change and mining as a threat to the deep ocean. Should we call it bioprospecting or biodiscovery and what’s the difference? If most of the world’s ocean belongs to everyone, who owns a discovery? How do we ensure that developed nations, who are better equipped to benefit from a discovery, don’t leave developing nations out? Are companies really patenting naturally occurring compounds? If we find something exciting, what is the process for it becoming the next wonder drug? While they both agree that looking for new compounds in the deep sea sounds good, Alan and Thom are soon stumped by the complexities of actually making that happen in a fair and sustainable way. Luckily, they can call on Professor Marcel Jaspars, head of the Marine Biodiscovery Centre to help us through the practicalities of biodiscovery but also its political and ethical complexities.

We talk with Dr Teresa Amaro, from the University of Aveiro in Portugal about these hugely important habitats in the deep sea and how they influence the fauna of the continental shelf. Plus, we get to hear the infamous story of when The Professor and Teresa docked in Lisbon during a cruise and Teresa was able to clear out a bar for the whole of the crew. Plus, the deep sea has been all over the news this month with lots of new papers being released. Magnetic bacteria have been found by the (phenomenally named) HYPER-DOLHPIN ROV, mysterious markings on the seafloor turn out to be face-planting fish, and scientists have been training jellyfish to navigate through assault courses (kinda). The Professor’s deep sea research lab have also been busy recently with lots of exciting videos coming out from their landers. Plus, one mystery creature has the whole team stumped.

But this time we are talking about the deep sea… Innnnnn Spaaaaaaaace! It turns out there is deep sea outside of earth in our solar system in the ice-covered moons of the gas giants. How likely are they to contain deep-sea life completely independent from the life that originated on earth? Thom chats with astrobiologist Kevin Peter Hand, author of Alien Oceans: The search for life in the depths of space, and director of NASA’s Ocean Worlds Lab. What are the best candidates for alien life in our solar system? What could that life be like and why does our own deep ocean provide a perfect test bed? It turns out that the early versions of the vehicles which may some day explore these ocean worlds are already in development. Thom chats with Casey Machado, Research Engineer at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution about the Orpheus AUV, the first generation of such vehicle and a new asset to the exploration of our own deep ocean.

	Deep-sea sharks with Justin Cordova	05 Jul 2024	01:02:57
We’re back on the elasmobranch train with our latest episode all about deep-sea sharks! We speak with Justin Cordova, co-founder and deputy director of The Rogue Shark Lab all about the fascinating world of deep-sea sharks! What makes them different from their shallow-water relatives? Why do their eyes glow green? How exactly do you get into a career in deep-sea shark research? The Professor is trapped in paradise (somewhere in Fiji) whilst he quarantines before his next big offshore expedition. But he’s not alone - alongside his new pal Roger (the guard gecko) he's quarantining with deep-sea celebrity, Jason 'J-Rod' Rodriguez. The famed SuBastian ROV pilot is joining Alan on this next leg of the expedition to the Tonga Trench. Make sure you're following us to hear all of the updates in our next episode! Andrew is back from his travels and was just as excited about our Lake Baikal episode as us! In this month's Coffee with Andrew segment, he talks us through the unbelievable similarities between deep-ocean and the deep-lake fish of Baikal.

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/039-molluscs Our very special guest this month is the fantatsic Kerry Walton from the Te Papa Museum in New Zealand. Kerry talks us through the weird and wonderful world of marine molluscs, from the deep to the not so deep, and what makes them fascinating to study. We learn about the very interesting Chainmail snail (Chrysomallon squamiferum), or as some call it ‘the scaly-foot snail’ (but we all agree that ‘chainmail snail’ is way cooler). Plus we hear all about the unbelievable species of limpets that survive on baleen from whalefalls, and those that live on human hair in estuaries (?!?!).

What do punk snails, turning 40 and Titipo the Little Train have in common? Thats right! The latest episode of the deep-sea podcast. We might be a little late this month but we’ve packed in as much as we can with this one. We’re covering all the latest deep sea news, including new deep sea habitats, octopus gardens and brand new amphipod species. Plus, we hear from Becca Nicholls about her experiences of working as a woman offshore, and how old superstitions are still very much a thing.

Friend of the show, Susan Casey has also just released her new book The Underworld in which Dr Thom and the Professor make an appearance! In her newest novel, Susan takes us on a journey through the history of deep-sea exploration, from the myths and legends of the ancient world to the scientists who are just beginning to understand the mind-blowing complexity and ecological importance of the quadrillions of creatures who live in realms long thought to be devoid of life. It’s so great to see this book finally out there after years of hard work. Get yourself a copy here. Want to hear Susan’s episode of the podcast? Check it out here.

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/013-submarine-special Thom thought he had the podcast to himself, but it turns out the professor is back after 88 days at sea. It’s time for our submarine, or human occupied vehicle (HOV) if you’re posh, special. First we reunite ‘Vegemite and Haggis’ and talk to submarine pilot Tim Macdonald about his and Alan’s undersea adventures around Australia. Manganese nodule fields, gothic cathedrals, and an undersea UFO. We then speak with Patrick Lahey and Frank Lombardo of Triton Submarines, a bespoke submarine manufacturer, about privately owned submersibles. Initially as luxury pleasure craft but we soon find out that there is a wide range of reasons why someone would want their own sub. Throughout their careers they have had many incredible experiences, like seeing a sixgill shark give birth and communicating with bioluminescent organisms. The podcast wouldn’t be complete without checking in with Don Walsh. He tells us about the large commercial tourist submarines which have now produced more tourist submariners than the US navy. Glossary Autonomous vehicle: A vehicle that doesn’t need a human pilot Globular: Globe-like, spherical Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV): Another term for a submarine Hypoxic: Insufficient oxygen Thrusters: the propellers on an underwater vehicle that allow it to move Links Triton submersibles Atlantis tourist subs

	PRESSURISED: 011 - Genetics with Heather Ritchie and Johanna Weston	23 Jun 2023	00:28:39
Alan is stranded out in the Pacific and Thom is left to present a show on genetics, a topic so confusing to him it may as well be magic. Luckily, friends of the show are on hand. Dr Heather Ritchie is tricked into co-hosting and we talk to Dr Johanna Weston about the things we can learn about the deep sea from genetic analysis.

Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/023-deep-aquaria Can we safely bring deep-sea organisms to the surface and keep them alive? Certain species, such as the giant isopods and giant Japanese spider crabs have been kept in aquaria in the past but the number of animals we can maintain long-term is quite small. The Monterey Bay Aquarium’s new Into the Deep exhibition has succeeded in keeping animals never before put on public display, some are even new to science. Not only that, but they have even had some success in getting them to reproduce! Figuring out what conditions these animals need and observing them over long periods will allow us to learn huge amounts about animals we usually only get a glimpse of. We talk with aquarists Ellen Umeda and Michelle Kaiser and life-support engineer Brian Maurer about the years of work that went into keeping these animals and giving the public a very personal deep-sea experience.

Our short and to the point PRESSURISED version of episode 7. If you don't have time for the full episode and want to get right to the science without any of our waffle, this is the place to be! We impact the deep sea in many ways we don’t realise. Some are deliberate, some are accidental, some we didn’t even notice at the time. We talk about ways we have impacted the deep sea and touch on the huge problem that is marine plastic, a particular problem in the isolated Mediterranean Sea. His serene highness Prince Albert II of Monaco tells us about his experience diving to the deepest point in the Mediterranean, the Calypso Deep and his Beyond Plastic Med initiative.

	The Deco-Stop: 002 - Neurodiversity in Science	13 Mar 2023	01:38:13
Here’s our second episode of The Deco-Stop; a deeper look into the humans behind deep-sea science and technology. We’ve done our science dive, and now it’s time to decompress, and discuss tales at sea, career paths and the social & political aspects of deep-sea science. From Steven Hawking to Charles Darwin, neurodiversity and science have been intertwined throughout history. Neurodiversity is a term which refers to the variety in the cognition of the human brain and can include people who are on the autism spectrum, or who have been diagnosed with dyslexia, dyspraxia, and dyscalculia, among others. We wanted to talk on a very human level about the strengths and weaknesses of being neurodivergent in science and to also share with you some personal stories and assistive resources. Thom shares his own journey in the field, alongside many other pioneering colleagues. Living legend, Bob Ballard speaks with us about his perspective on being dyslexic and even attributes his career success (including the discovery of the titanic) to his gift. Friends of the show, Tom Tangye, Sophie McLellan and Cat Morgan also share their experiences of working in the field alongside being neurodivergent. They share how the industry, and the world in general, is changing to be more inclusive and understanding of everyone who thinks differently. We had such a great time making this episode, and we’re so grateful to everyone who spoke with us. Below you’ll find a whole host of resources that have been shared with us, and that we recommend ourselves! Let’s carry on this conversation, with colleagues, friends, and with those outside our inner circles. Be patient with each other, and trust that the world is changing, for the better. We are so excited about creating this space to talk more about the human aspects of deep-sea science, and would love to hear from you about your deep-sea journey! Check out our podcast merch here!

	PRESSURISED: 033 - Parasites with Rod Bray	10 Mar 2023	00:28:48
Our short and to-the-point PRESSURISED version of episode 33. If you don't have time for the full episode and want to get right to the science without any of our waffle, this is the place to be! What if your deep-sea habitat was less rocky and more fleshy? That’s right, the time has come to talk all about deep-sea parasites and their fascinating life cycles. We couldn’t think of anyone better to speak with than Dr Rod Bray, a pioneer in deep-sea parasitology research. Rod talks us through the captivating world of parasitic worms and his ongoing research into their ecology. Check out our podcast merch here!

Chimaera - A group of cartilaginous fish mostly found in deep waters. Competition - A type of symbiosis where both species are harmed. Commensalism - A type of symbiosis where one species benefits and the other is unaffected. Ctenophore - “Comb jelly” marine invertebrates found worldwide. Digeneans - A class of trematodes consisting of parasitic flatworms with two suckers. Ectoparasites - Parasites that live on the skin of the host. Elasmobranch - The subclass of cartilaginous fishes consisting of sharks, skates and rays. Emmensalism - A type of symbiosis where one species is harmed and one is unaffected. Endoparasites - Parasites that live inside the tissues of the host. Facultative symbiosis - A type of symbiosis which is optional; not necessary for survival. Flukes - “Trematoda” is a class of flatworms. They are internal parasites with a complex life cycle requiring at least two hosts. Hydrozoan - A class of cnidaria. They are small predatory animals, most are benthic and involve a polyp stage. Monogeneans - A group of ectoparasitic flatworms commonly found on the skin, gills, or fins of fish. Mutualism - A type of symbiosis where both species benefit. Myxozoa - A group of aquatic parasites which contains some of the smallest animals known to exist. Neutralism - A type of symbiosis where neither species benefit nor are negatively affected. Parasitism - A type of symbiosis where one species benefits and one is harmed. Parasite burden - A measure of the number and virulence of the parasites that a host harbours. Symbiosis - “Living together” two different species living closely together. Teleosts - “Bony fishes”. Tunicate - These are marine invertebrates sometimes called “sea squirts”.

	PRESSURISED: 047 - The depths of Lake Baikal with Marianne Moore	14 Jun 2024	00:29:25
Our short and to the point PRESSURISED version of episode 47. If you don't have time for the full episode and want to get right to the science without any of our waffle, this is the place to be! Read the show notes and find the full episode here: https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/047-baikal Located in southern Siberia and covered in thick ice for almost half of the year, the colossal Lake Baikal reaches depths of 1600m making it the oldest, and deepest lake in the world. With hydrothermal vents, methane seeps and vast swathes of endemic species, this ancient lake was too tempting not to talk about. We speak with Professor Marianne Moore, a Limnologist who has been working on the lake for over 2 decades. She guides us through its incredible ecosystems and species such as the world's only freshwater seal, deep water insects and foot-long flatworms! We’re really trying to make this project self-sustaining so we have started looking for ways to support the podcast. Here’s a link to our page on how to support us, from the free options to becoming a patron of the show. We want to say a huge thank you to those patrons who have already pledged to support us!
