Description

Plankton Poop and the Largest Migration on Earth With the RV Falkor (Too)

Each night in the open ocean, hundreds of millions of tons of fish, shrimps, jellies, and other animals rise from the deep to feed near the surface. Then, at dawn, they descend hundreds of meters to avoid predators. This is the largest animal migration on Earth. Join the team on the RV Falkor (Too) on expedition in the deep sea off the coast of South America to explore this phenomena and hear about the cutting edge science being done on board!
