Deep-water Mesobot will study inhabitants of a twilight zone

The American engineers created underwater robots Mesobot for studying of the organisms living at depths from 200 to 1000 meters. In this area the so-called twilight zone into which not enough sunlight from a surface gets settles down. According to the modern representations, marine organisms living in this area can have essential impact on a global carbon cycle and climate of a planet. Mesobot is capable to carry out long research missions over 24 hours on supervision over marine organisms both in completely autonomous mode, and with management on...
