Scientists search new world of creatures under 1,640 feet of ice!
Scientists are busy finding for life outside the earth but there are some places on earth which are still unconsumed . Antarctica is completely covered with ice, it is freezing cold, but the charm of nature is such that there could be a world of creatures here too, it is unthinkable. Scientists have found one such clear world of life under the ice of Antarctica.
Scientists say they have create an entire ecosystem of small organisms under the ice. Scientists have create this hidden ecosystem beneath the Larsen Ice Shelf. Scientists dug 500 meters under the ice. Then when the camera was place into it, they were astonish to see the scene beneath . The cave-like space beneath was found to be completely peeved with flock of small, crab-like creatures. Satellite images suggest that the ecosystem where it was found is an underground river.
To search this secret ecosystem, the research team dug 1,640 feet beneath the ice. The team used hot water hoses for instituting . When the camera was sent in, they saw small bear spots. It wasn’t a technical glitch with the camera, but small crustaceans called amphibious. They look like shrimp but have no shell or shell. Scientists did not expect to search such making under the ice until now.
Craig Stevens, a physical ocean geographer at the National Institute of Water and weather Research (NIWA) in Auckland, New Zealand; told“All those organisms swimming around our camera means there’s clearly an important ecological process going on.”
Scientists were surprised to see the inside of the place where this ecosystem was found. They expected a flat roof but it was quite uneven. It’s like a slice of bread, with a bevel at the top and a narrow shield at the bottom, Stevens said. Scientists are also surprised to see the behavior of the water here. The water here is divided into four and five layers and all the layers flow in Croce fome directions. Scientists are saying that we will continue to study more about this ecosystem. They will also explore how these nutrients circulate in groundwater.
