The Deep-Water Connections team will explore the deep slopes of the Northern Bahamas, looking for deep-sea communities of octocorals, or soft corals. The expedition is a continuation of earlier investigations that have revealed some spectacular assemblages of bamboo corals, bubblegum corals, black corals, and a variety of other sea fan and sea whip species. Living with the corals were myriad animals, including shrimp, crabs, snake stars, sea stars, feather stars, scale worms, and many species of deep-sea fish. Most of the species found were new to science.
