    "Researchers discovered a densely populated soft #coral garden northeast of #FogoIsland, N.L., during a science and student training expedition in late June... Located in a complex rocky habitat, early estimates suggest the coral garden spans about 10,000 square metres of the sea floor within the Funk Island Deep marine refuge off #NewfoundlandAndLabrador... The diverse marine life includes #anemones, #sponges, basket stars and many soft #corals."
