      Paleontology question somewhat related to the video: Have many fossils been found of organisms that died in brine pools? It seems to me that the lack of decay within the pools and the barium sulfate crusting would make excellent conditions for fossilization.

    I remember as a kid watching "The Blue Planet" doco and on episode 2 they covered the deep sea. As kids, my brother and I were absolutely obsessed with that particular episode out of all of them and few things fascinated me more than when the episode showed a brine pool. It was just mind blowing, eerie and strange. Sort of a morbid curiosity almost, a place of darkness and in many ways, fear and so absolutely bizarre. Even now I still get chills seeing footage of these places. While the physics of how they exist makes sense, they just don't feel like they should. Cold, hazy lakes of death on the floor of the oceans in the eternal gloom.

    How fascinating! I'd heard of brine pools before this but never have I heard such a succinct and clear explanation of why they exist at all. Great job on this script, I learned quite a lot!!
    The footage you've shown is just as mesmerizing - especially given that one aspect of learning more about such incredible oases of life gives us clues and hints as to what kinds of living creatures we might find on truly distant shores - on other worlds. Just imagine if we found similar critters on Europa - even finding "boneyards" of dead bivalves would be more indication that we're not the only life in the solar system than we've ever had. And these animals look SO strange compared to the life we're so familiar with - even the crabs look weirder than usual!
    Just a wonderful video all around! Thank you again for all your hard work on these!

    I would just like to clarify that it is less the “weight” of overlying sediments that deformed the Mesozoic salt deposits of the the GoM, and rather the salt’s own low density relative to the overlying sediment. This density contrast is what is responsible for “salt tectonics”, and it allows the salt to rise in diapiric structures called “salt domes” and merged groups of these structures form “salt canopies”. The movement of these salt and other evaporites causes faulting and deformation in the surrounding sedimentary rock, and it is these faults that conduct the brine to the seafloor.
    Also, it’s not just bacteria that form the primary production at brine pools, but also archea, which are more closely related to humans than bacteria.

      @NaturalWorldFacts  2 года назад +31

      @E J I understand your concern, but much of this footage is hidden away in 3-hour-long raw ROV dive footage videos, with little to contextualise and explain it. One of the biggest barriers to widespread awareness and understanding of the deep ocean is simply the lack of science communication in the field. So many exciting findings and so much incredible footage, but accessible only to those with existing scientific background or with already a vested interest in the subject. I trawl through those ROV dives to find much of the footage, write my own scripts based on scientific papers that it’s unlikely the general RUclips audience would ever look for or read, and attempt to explain and show these incredible ecosystems in a way that inspires wonder!! In addition, most (but admittedly not all) footage I use is public domain anyway, made available for this kind of use due to the global focus on marine research encouraging open sharing of information and footage. So any NOAA clips (including most shots of brine pools) are completely free for public use. For other clips, the Fair Use policy allows my use as my films meet the conditions of being ‘transformative’ and ‘educational’. I do this is a hobby, because of a passion. In fact, the only reason I accept sponsors is because I’m funding a marine biology degree course which I’m currently studying in the hopes of getting into the field of deep-sea ecology or science communication professionally.

    I feel like it would be interesting to take the very old preserved specimens from the pools and compare them with new specimens of the same species to see how many changes and adaptations have occurred within that time. Adding previously preserved ones to fill in that time gap between the brine specimen and most recent one could also be helpful. From there a long term study can take place where every couple of years or so a fresh new specimen is added to the collection and compared with the older ones.

      @@NaturalWorldFacts ohhh, it's loads of trouble - but overall I consider it a blessing. I was on my way to becoming a very busy professional bass player (considering a touring life) when my daughter was born. At the time, I was still working locally for the most part but continually doing more out of town work (btn 1-10 dsys away) - I broke my back when she was 2, a couple months before my son was born. As a result, I wasn't away from home while they were growing up and was able to be a "Mr. Mom" raising them full time. I'm REALLY glad I was able to do that.
      Thank you for your well wishes. 💕💞💖☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️

    Imagine if a whale carcass fell into a brine pool. Everything below the pool level would be preserved perfectly. And everything above would be picked clean by scavengers.

    P.S. I find it amazing how the the creature are literally encased in a salt crust (or Barium Sulphate) to the level of the brine pool. Very haunting.

      Thank you so much! I’m really glad you found me and my little corner of deep-sea fascination. 😁 Welcome to the channel. As a mini introduction in case you stick around, I’m Leo, I’m a uni student doing marine biology, and I’ve been making these films solo as a hobby since age 9 and (hopefully soon) a career, along with real world deep sea research if I get the grades! Basically, I’m a bit obsessed with wildlife and the ocean. Here’s a playlist of all the deep sea films as a starting point if you’re looking for more - ruclips.net/p/PLKzq2xKdfIot0rJTxkzPG7srMQm0sSeIG

    The whiplash of the darkness of the toxicity of brine pools and how none who enter them return right before being told that their bodies become "pickled" is hilarious. Yes, it's the correct term due to the anaerobic fermentation, but it's such an inherently hilarious word that hearing it in this very serious documentary made me giggle. Love this, fascinating stuff!
