AutoSub Discovers Krill Major Food Reserve Found by Robot | |
AutoSub Discovers Krill
BBC News has a new article about a automated submarine: Robot Sub Finds Antarctic Food Stash. It describes the £5m equipment as one the most advanced underwater probes ever built. The submarine's ability to cause a minimal impact on its environment was one of its recipes for success. Researchers are now using it to measure ice thickness. |

Marine Food
Reuters also has a wire on the same subject: Robot Shows Global Warming May Not Harm Marine Food. Small correction to the previous post. The study of the ice thickness is directly related to the existence of krill. The researchers wanted to check the impact of global warming, and the melting of such ice on marine life. |
