Abstract:

Gnaiger 1983 Springer POS

The deep-sea environment occupies over half the earthโ€™s surface. However, inaccessibility has greatly restricted the study of this unique environment characterized by high pressure and low temperature. Technological advances over the past 15 years permit us to โ€œenterโ€ the deep-sea environment either directly with submersibles or indirectly with sophisticated instrumentation to make observations, collections and measurements and to conduct experiments. With these advances, the biological dynamics of the deep-sea ecosystem are slowly being resolved. Our contributions to this resolution are related to energy flow and, more specifically, the metabolism of deep-sea organisms. The integral component of our instrumentation used in these studies is the polarographic oxygen sensor (POS).
