Not to be outdone, the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute recently completed an expedition on the R/V Western Flyer. Called the Bioinspiration Expedition, the crew was specifically focused on how we can create better technologies and methods by studying phenomenon in nature. Instead of the seafloor, the group is studying the often neglected mid-water regions where animals are adapted to live in cold, dark regions with patchy distributions of animals. |
