New View of Life on the Deep Seafloor by the Benthic Rover

"... a new robot spent most of July traveling across the muddy ocean bottom, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) off the California coast. This robot, the Benthic Rover, has been providing scientists with an entirely new view of life on the deep seafloor. It will also give scientists a way to document the effects of climate change on the deep sea." - excerpt from this UnderwaterTimes.com article.
