Lo que el mar esconde: descubren más de 1.100 nuevas especies en un sólo año
Científicos colaboradores de #OceanCensus, iniciativa por Nippon Foundation y Nekton para acelerar el conocimiento de la vida marina, descubren en un sólo año 1.121 nuevas especies marinas (el 54 % más que la media anual de documentaciones) en 13 expediciones y profundidades hasta 6.575m
Colaboran #JAMSTEC (Agencia Japonesa de Ciencias y Tecnología Marinas y Terrestres), #CSIRO (Organización de Investigación Científica

🚢 Vier Wissenschaftler:innen der Uni Innsbruck befinden sich gerade auf einem japanischen Tiefseebohrschiff. Sie analysieren Bodenproben aus einer Tiefe von über 7600 Metern unter dem Meeresspiegel, um u.a. Erkenntnisse über Meeresbeben und dort lebende Mikroorganismen zu gewinnen.

"Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology [#JAMSTEC]... showed the press its newest autonomous underwater vehicle, the Urashima 8000, in #Yokosuka"
"The submarine is about 10 m long and capable of diving to 8,000 m under the sea"
" “We will be able to search for seafloor deposits and check for deformation of the sea floor caused by earthquakes more efficiently,” said Takeshi Nakatani, acting group leader of the agency’s Engineering Dept"

The Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology has unveiled a deep-sea explorer capable of reaching a depth of 8,000 meters, the most capable of such probes that the country has. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/05/13/japan/science-health/japan-deep-sea-probe/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #sciencehealth #yokosuka #jamstec #urashima

Japan has one of the most sophisticated earthquake and tsunami detection systems in the world. But gaps remain and some scientists see submarine cables as a solution to improve warning times. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2024/07/21/earth-science/tsunami-warnings-submarine-cables/ #environment #earthscience #tsunami #earthquakes #nankaitrough #wakayama #jamstec #disasterpreparedness

The Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology says that it observed a tsunami that occurred off an island in the Izu chain in October using a long-distance fiber-optic cable. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/06/07/japan/submarine-cables-tsunami/ #japan #tsunami #earthquakes #oceans #jamstec #tech

🔸Meanwhile:
"[Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology's submersible] “Shinkai 6500” was built in 1989. It has already made more than 1,500 dives, and 5 more years is probably the limit. If we don’t build a successor soon, there will be no more manned submersibles in #Japan, but we may not be able to build one with Japanese technology anymore"
- Dr. Hiroshi Kitazato, Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology
