“The Hadal Zone: Life in the Deepest Oceans” is an amazing book written on the oceans. It is written by the great Sea Explorer Dr. Alan Jamieson. Dr. Alan Jamieson is a senior lecturer at the University of Aberdeen’s Oceanlab in the UK. He received his PhD for the thesis entitles “Autonomous Lander technology for Biological Research at mid-water, Abyssal and hadal Depths”. He devoted his life to research on the science and technology in the biological exploration of the hadal trenches of the Pacific Ocean through the HADEEP projects, and more recently the HADES projects. This book represents one of the last great frontiers in marine science, accounting for 45% of the total ocean depth range. It provides details about currently known organisms at hadal depths and linkages to the better known abyssal and bathyal depths. For students and researchers, new insights on how, where and what really survives and thrives in the deepest biozone are provided, allowing this region to be considered when dealing with sustainability and conservation issues in the marine environment. In summary, “The Hadal Zone by Alan” is a great book written on the mysteries of the ocean’s deepest places.
