Exploring Oceans: Great Barrier Reef

Welcome to Bermuda

The waters around Bermuda are warmed by the Gulf Stream, and host the Sargasso Sea--a liquid jungle of creatures such as loggerhead turtles, fish, sea hares, crabs, and seahorses that exists in floating forests of golden brown sargassum seaweed on the surface of the sea. Within Bermuda's deep waters, explorers William Beebe and Otis Barton discovered bioluminescent sea creatures reminiscent of comets, suns and stars. In between the surface and the deep sea, humpback whales and jellies drift along with the ocean currents.

Welcome to the Antarctic Ocean

The coldest, windiest place on Earth, holds 60 percent of the fresh water on the planet. It is home to the enormous elephant seal and the ferocious leopard seal. New expeditions to the Weddell Sea produced more than 700 new species, including giant carnivorous sponges.

Welcome to Hawaii

Created by a string of spectacular undersea volcanoes, the islands are surrounded by creatures whose ancestors preceded human beings by millions of years.

Welcome to the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean

The mix of moonlight, tide and temperature produces an extraordinary explosion of life in these waters. When the conditions are just right, brain and star corals spawn, dog and cubera snappers mate ... and whale sharks come to snack on cubera caviar. The same conditions trigger the mating rituals of squid, yellowhead jawfish and nurse sharks.

Welcome to Monterey Bay

Just off the coast of Monterey Bay is an undersea canyon that ranks among the largest in the world. It supports life from tiny krill to baleen whales who feed on them. The bay is also home to the Humboldt squid, mola mola, seals, orcas -- and giant kelp forests full of sea slugs, sea urchins, octopus, melibe, and sea otters. At the curve of the bay is the Elkhorn Slough, a seasonal estuary rich in birds and marine life. Cannery Row used to be located here at a time when sardines, salmon and halibut were historically overfished, but the waters around Monterey Bay are now a protected marine sanctuary.

Fish With Transparent Head Filmed

For the first time, a large Pacific barreleye fish - complete with transparent head - has been caught on film by scientists using remotely operated vehicles at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute. The deep-sea fish's tubular eyes pivot under a clear dome.
