Faunistic deep-sea investigations in the Northwest Pacific have increased faunal knowledge at the edge of the changing Arctic Ocean
In the past seven years, the biology of the bathyal, abyssal and hadal faunas of meio- macro-, and megabenthos of the northwestern (NW) Pacific have been intensively investigated by Russian and German partners. A total of four joint expeditions with both RV Akademik M.A. Lavrentyev as well as RV Son...
