Scientists discover Antarctic krill at deep-sea hydrothermal vents

Study published documenting krill at hydrothermal vents as breeding habitat

1 Sep 15 · 8d ago · 6 articles · 2 posts · 3 sources · development 1 of 1

Researchers published findings in the journal Communications Biology reporting the first-ever documented presence of Antarctic krill at hydrothermal vents. The discovery suggests these extreme environments may serve as important reproductive habitats for the species, particularly as climate change threatens traditional Southern Ocean habitats.

“Most of them feed on Antarctic krill. And if they don't, they feed on something else that feeds directly on Antarctic krill. So they are absolutely fundamental to the functioning and health of that ecosystem.”
