Eavesdropping on ocean giants: MBARI tech reveals the secret lives of blue whales
Blue whales are the largest animals on Earth. And with their massive size, comes a massive appetite. These whales rely on tiny crustaceans called krill as their food source. But the vast and dynamic nature of the ocean can make it hard to locate a good meal. How do these gentle giants find food and survive?
To find out, MBARI scientists set up the Blue Whale Observatory, a unique network of acoustic instruments in Monterey Bay. The observatory records whale calls, krill swarm activity, and ocean conditions for four months straight every summer and fall when blue whales are most acoustically active in the area. The observatory's detailed recordings reveal more about the predator, prey, and environmental dynamics that drive blue whales’ behavior.
Findings from the Blue Whale Observatory can inform efforts to protect endangered whales and open up possibilities for studying other marine species in a similar way. Learning more about the dynamics of ocean life-from the tiniest krill to the largest whale-can help us become better stewards of our blue planet.

The octopus squid breaks the rules, having 8 arms instead of 10
zhlédnutí 9KPřed 28 dny
The octopus squid (Octopoteuthis deletron) is unusual among squids. Typically, squids have eight arms and two long tentacles, making a total of 10 appendages. But as young Octopoteuthis mature into adults, their two feeding tentacles are reabsorbed into their bodies. Eight arms are not the only thing that stands out about this species. While exploring the midwater, we often encounter octopus sq...
MBARI's advanced underwater robots discover deep-sea squid that broods giant eggs
zhlédnutí 387KPřed měsícem
During an expedition to Mexico’s Gulf of California in 2015, MBARI’s remotely operated vehicle Doc Ricketts encountered a mother squid cradling a cluster of eggs. This sighting was striking because the eggs were twice as large as those of other deep-sea squids we’ve seen brooding their eggs. The mantle length of the squid was 221 millimeters (8.7 inches), and the average egg size was 11.6 milli...

As we approach World Ocean Day, we’re reflecting on 36 years of ocean exploration with MBARI’s remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Ventana. In operation since 1988, this robotic submersible has logged more than 4,500 dives-the most science dives of any remotely operated vehicle in the world. Five days a week, MBARI’s research vessel Rachel Carson leaves Moss Landing Harbor at 6:30 in the morning fo...
Deep-sea amphipods have evolved remarkable night vision capabilities

In the midwater, the need to see without being seen in this dim, open environment, has led to extraordinary visual adaptations. Many midwater animals have evolved powerful eyes that allow them to detect prey, mates, and predators in the dark. New research by scientists at The University of Western Australia’s Oceans Institute and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History-including MB...

Unwind for six minutes with stunning footage of graceful deep-sea skates and rays filmed by MBARI’s underwater robots. Skates and rays are fishes related to sharks. They have a distinct, flattened body, and they swim and glide using a pair of large, wing-like fins. While we know a lot about the skates and rays that dwell in shallow coastal waters, we know relatively little about those that call...

This was simply mesmerizing as well as inspiring. Thanks for sharing this with us :)
Would have more fascinating with the depth the video was filmed in, next to the name.
The music is incredibly annoying
Doesn't sonar negatively affect some marine life? Such as any species that uses echolocation? I may be misinformed 😅
Someone lost their nylon stockings.
Thank you!

The narration is painful. The unnecessary vocal inflections turned me off this video.
I love these videos, but the narrator sounds condescending AF.
Why are the :3
The Bluntnose sixgill shark ( Hexanchus griseus ) in this video is a male, note the claspers on his pelvic fins, which are basically his double penis But the male Bluntnose sixgill shark is smaller than the female The Bluntnose sixgill shark can grow up to 6 meters long, while its typical size is 3 or 4 meters long
Why is she speaking to us like we're 5 years old?
Because it's also for school children. It's educational and informative.
@@susanne5803 It's not, though. Channels can mark videos as for kids, and then you can't play them in the background. This one can be played in the background. I think you made up your answer because you read "5 years old" in my comment.
@@DrJuice1 Are you okay?
@@susanne5803 Lol you're so aggravated. Can't stop yourself from replying.
Lovely voice! The narrator & the WHALES
I wish I were this creature or even a tree. I hate being alive
Amazingly beautiful

What a great video! Would love to see you guys make more like this, particularly on the instruments used inthe Boue Whale observatory!

Yes, I'd love to know more about the different types of calls and how whales communicate with each other.
"Gentle Giants" was such an amazing name for them lol, i liked it

The Colossal squid look so fearsome with its claw-like appendages on its arms and tentacles The Humboldt squid could had eat the smaller Chiroteuthis squid The Chiroteuthis squids attract their preys with their tentacles and they are basically the anglerfish of the cephalopod world
The title of this video should be This squid break the rules by having only 8 arms Squids have indeed 10 limbs but they are 8 arms and 2 tentacles not 10 arms It is wrong Octopoteuthis, a squid that only has 8 arms and lack the tentacles
Sobhan allah
Hard to watch this and not think Jordan Peele used this animal as inspiration for "Nope".
Fascinating stuff why go to Mars just look at the big deep
