Whale Fall The Deep Ocean Oasis
When a whale dies and sinks to the ocean floor, it forms a whale fall, creating a nutrient-rich ecosystem that can last decades or centuries. These sites pass through four decomposition stages, supporting scavengers, zombie worms, and sulfur-eating bacteria. Whale falls enhance marine biodiversity, aid in deep-sea carbon sequestration, and provide opportunities to discover new species adapted to extreme underwater environments.
