Three 'C's of the seas
I don’t know about you, but I am both fascinated and scared shitless by the ocean. Granted, I’m not one of those old timey seamen standing on the deck yelling that the sea calls to me and that I love her, but I still believe marine biology is truly a marvel. Deep sea gigantism and whale falls, anyone? Something that keeps me up at night though, is that we’ve only explored around 5% of the oceans so far, and even scarier shit is definitely down there.
Cher’s word of the day: Bathypelagic, /bæθ.ɪ.pəˈlædʒ.ɪk/
Adjective: relating to the part of the ocean that is between approximately 2000 feet (600 metres) and 12,000 feet (3,600 metres) deep. Definition provided by Cambridge Dictionary.
