Book
Life in hot water : wildlife at the bottom of the ocean / written by Mary Batten ; illustrated by Thomas Gonzalez.
An award-winning science writer discusses one of the most extreme environments on Earth-hydrothermal ocean vents at the bottom of the sea-and the creatures who have evolved to thrive in this unlikely habitat. The scalding-hot water gushing from vents at the bottom of the ocean is one of the most extreme environments on Earth. Yet over millions of years, many organisms—from chemical-eating bacteria to eyeless crabs and iron-shelled snails—have evolved in amazing ways that enable them to thrive in this unlikely habitat. Scientists are hard at work to learn more about the complex ecosystems of the ocean depths.
