It feels like technology and access is really accelerating in both spheres. Don calls in to teach us about the amount of water in our solar system and the potential new job title – Planetary Oceanographer.</p>  </p> When samples or access to a vehicle is limited, how can we ensure that resources are shared fairly? We have seen it lead to disagreements on ships. With something as singular and precious as a Mars rover, how are its objectives planned? Evan Hilgemann, mechanical engineer and Curiosity Rover driver with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab (JLP) joins us to share how a rover is managed. We chat about the parallels between exploring mars and exploring the deep sea, the similar issues we face, what we can learn from each other and most excitingly, where is technology heading on both fronts!

040 - Submarine canyons with Teresa Amaro

<p id="yui_3_17_2_1_1696515379150_994">So everyone has been pretty busy but we finally got round to finishing off our deep sea habitats series with this episode on submarine canyons. We talk with Dr Teresa Amaro, from the University of Aveiro in Portugal about these hugely important habitats in the deep sea and how they influence the fauna of the continental shelf. Plus, we get to hear the infamous story of when The Professor and Teresa docked in Lisbon during a cruise and Teresa was able to clear out a bar for the whole of the crew.</p>  </p> Plus, the deep sea has been all over the news this month with lots of new papers being released. Magnetic bacteria have been found by the (phenomenally named) HYPER-DOLHPIN ROV, mysterious markings on the seafloor turn out to be face-planting fish, and scientists have been training jellyfish to navigate through assault courses (kinda).</p> The Professor’s deep sea research lab have also been busy recently with lots of exciting videos coming out from their landers. Plus, one mystery creature has the whole team stumped. Is it a nudibranch? Or is it something else entirely?</p> We’re really trying to make this project self-sustaining so we have started looking for ways to support the podcast.<a href="https://parrotfish-yellow-hnlx.squarespace.com/support-us"> Here’s a link to our page on how to support us</a>, from the free options to becoming a patron of the show.

But this time we are talking about the deep sea… Innnnnn Spaaaaaaaace! It turns out there is deep sea outside of earth in our solar system in the ice-covered moons of the gas giants. How likely are they to contain deep-sea life completely independent from the life that originated on earth? Thom chats with astrobiologist Kevin Peter Hand, author of Alien Oceans: The search for life in the depths of space, and director of NASA’s Ocean Worlds Lab. What are the best candidates for alien life in our solar system? What could that life be like and why does our own deep ocean provide a perfect test bed?</p> It turns out that the early versions of the vehicles which may some day explore these ocean worlds are already in development. Thom chats with Casey Machado, Research Engineer at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution about the Orpheus AUV, the first generation of such vehicle and a new asset to the exploration of our own deep ocean.</p> Feel free to get in touch with us with questions or your own tales from the high seas on:<br /> <a href="mailto:podcast@armatusoceanic.com">podcast@armatusoceanic.com</a></p> We are also on:<br /> Twitter: @<a href="https://soundcloud.com/ArmatusO">ArmatusO</a><br /> Facebook: ArmatusOceanic<br /> Instagram: @<a href="https://soundcloud.com/armatusoceanic">armatusoceanic</a></p> Read the show notes and find out more about us at:<br /> <a href="https://gate.sc/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.armatusoceanic.com&token=12e00f-1-1695821180702">www.armatusoceanic.com</a></p>

039 - Mollusc special with Kerry Walton

What do punk snails, turning 40 and Titipo the Little Train have in common? Thats right! The latest episode of the deep-sea podcast.</p> We might be a little late this month but we’ve packed in as much as we can with this one. We’re covering all the latest deep sea news, including new deep sea habitats, octopus gardens and brand new amphipod species. Plus, we hear from Becca Nicholls about her experiences of working as a woman offshore, and how old superstitions are still very much a thing.</p>  </p> Our very special guest this month is the fantatsic Kerry Walton from the Te Papa Museum in New Zealand. Kerry talks us through the weird and wonderful world of marine molluscs, from the deep to the not so deep, and what makes them fascinating to study. </p> We learn about the very interesting Chainmail snail (Chrysomallon squamiferum), or as some call it ‘the scaly-foot snail’ (but we all agree that ‘chainmail snail’ is way cooler).

In her newest novel, Susan takes us on a journey through the history of deep-sea exploration, from the myths and legends of the ancient world to the scientists who are just beginning to understand the mind-blowing complexity and ecological importance of the quadrillions of creatures who live in realms long thought to be devoid of life. It’s so great to see this book finally out there after years of hard work. <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/612438/the-underworld-by-susan-casey/">Get yourself a copy here</a>.

It’s time for our submarine, or human occupied vehicle (HOV) if you’re posh, special. First we reunite ‘Vegemite and Haggis’ and talk to submarine pilot Tim Macdonald about his and Alan’s undersea adventures around Australia. Manganese nodule fields, gothic cathedrals, and an undersea UFO.</p> We then speak with Patrick Lahey and Frank Lombardo of Triton Submarines, a bespoke submarine manufacturer, about privately owned submersibles. Initially as luxury pleasure craft but we soon find out that there is a wide range of reasons why someone would want their own sub. Throughout their careers they have had many incredible experiences, like seeing a sixgill shark give birth and communicating with bioluminescent organisms.</p> The podcast wouldn’t be complete without checking in with Don Walsh. He tells us about the large commercial tourist submarines which have now produced more tourist submariners than the US navy.</p>  </p> Glossary</p> Autonomous vehicle: A vehicle that doesn’t need a human pilot</p> Globular: Globe-like, spherical</p> Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV): Another term for a submarine</p> Hypoxic: Insufficient oxygen</p> Thrusters: the propellers on an underwater vehicle that allow it to move</p>  </p> Links</p> <a href="https://tritonsubs.com/">Triton submersibles</a></p> <a href="https://atlantisadventures.com/submarines/">Atlantis tourist subs</a></p>  </p>

038 - Deep-sea jellies with George Matsumoto

The Professor is back on land and Dr Thom is back from Squid Christmas, what a better time to talk about the squishiest of deep sea critters?

PRESSURISED: 012 - Natural History Collections with James Maclaine and Andrew Stewart

Our short and to the point PRESSURISED version of episode 12. If you don't have time for the full episode and want to get right to the science without any of our waffle, this is the place to be!</p> Read the show notes and find the full episode here:</p> <a href="https://www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/012-natural-history-collections">www.armatusoceanic.com/podcast/012-natural-history-collections</a></p>  </p> Natural history collections, huge archives of carefully curated specimens, are an invaluable tool for the scientific community. They are also a place where the public get to interact with active research and meet scientists. Forget what you’d imagine working in a museum to be like, no two days are the same and both the collections and the talented people who work with them are in constant demand. One day your helping design new swimwear based on shark skin, the next settling an argument at a fishing competition.</p> If you’re wondering what jobs are out there in science or just curious to know what goes on behind the scenes at a museum, this episode has some surprises for you.</p>  </p> Feel free to get in touch with us with questions or you own tales from the high seas on:</p> podcast@armatusoceanic.com</p>  </p> Read the show notes and find out more about us at:</p> www.armatusoceanic.com</p>  </p> Links</p> <a href="https://youtu.be/GCuls27q90E">James taking care of the beetles during lockdown</a></p> <a href="https://youtu.be/IevEbmvjCu0">James talking about deep-sea fish</a>.</p> <a href="https://www.labnews.co.uk/article/2028579/exploring_sharks_sens_of_smell_with_jonathan_cox">Shark nostril research</a></p> <a href="https://www.earthtouchnews.com/oceans/sharks/a-plane-crash-a-boy-with-a-bite-a-cryptic-deep-sea-shark/">Cookie-cutter shark bites</a></p> <a href="https://youtu.be/x2X6H1llkb0">Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa</a> – deep sea video</p> <a href="https://www.tepapa.govt.nz/about/te-papa-press/past-books/fishes-new-zealand">The Fishes of New Zealand</a></p>
