Rare footage of elusive sea-floor creatures and backward-swimming fish captured by compact video-acoustic system
Arctic glacial fjords are hotspots of marine life, yet their seafloor environments remain some of the least explored regions on Earth.

Arctic glacial fjords are hotspots of marine life, yet their seafloor environments remain some of the least explored regions on Earth. Their extreme remoteness and the technical challenges of deep-water observation have led scientists to rely on indirect measurements like sonar. However, these methods cannot visually verify animal behavior or identify specific species.
