Oban-based scientists in deep sea Arctic life study

Scottish-based scientists have been involved in a study of how light adversely affects the behaviour of deep sea animals.

Oban’s Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS) were part of a team of Norwegian and UK researchers who carried out the research in the Barents Sea in the Arctic Ocean.

The research cruise and the science behind it are also the focus of a short documentary, “Into the Dark”, produced by Michael O. Snyder.
