A new expedition - a new blog!

In the framework of the Seamounts project, a second cruise will be undertaken on board the RRS James Cook between 7 November and 21 December 2011 to explore 5 seamounts that were studied in 2009. Whereas the first cruise focused on the pelagic communities (in the water column), the second one will investigate the benthic assemblages (what lives in, on or close to the seafloor).
You can follow the expedition, live from the ship, on the new blog:
