Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow
Description: The research discussed in this article illustrates the impression that the deep-sea floor is like your Grandma's quilt presenting a variety of patches of material. These patches, driven by differences in marine snow, whether occurring over inches or miles, provide unique habitats that allow a variety of different animals to coexist. And much like humans prefer different amounts of snow, deep-sea species are uniquely adapted to differences in marine snow. [Source: Deep Sea News]
