Recently, our country scientist discovers in Nanhai whale falls first, and whale falls in the whole world discover a number not to exceed 50!

What is whale falls?

The body after whale dies sinks marine, be called whale to fall. Whale falls a new ecosystem can be caused in sea floor, this is the final tenderness that whale brings to the sea.

After whale falls, what can you produce after all?

At the beginning when, the body of whale is met very quickly discovery be givinged by a lot of saprophagous animal in ocean, say to resemble sleeping for example shark, deep-sea crab, hagfish these biology, can come in great numbers, they can be in probably 4-12 inside lunar time, mix the skin of on whale body 90% adipose still muscle gives eat off.

When these large deep-sea biology satiate drink sufficient after leaving, be turn for small-sized biology, have a variety of 20 much hair kind with crustacean biology, the meeting is recumbent these incomplete a thick soup are cold broil, continue to survive probably 2 years long.

But these do not have the place with special what actually, all biology fall to deep-sea word, can suffer same question.

The miracle of whale is absent these, and after the human body of the flesh and blood in it comes loose, what what remain is skeletal.

To explain this miracle, must explain little cultural background above all.

We know everythings on earth grows rely on the sun. Offing and ground are all biology, its essential energy is to come from sunshine. But in face of deep sea mile, there is sunshine over there, without this energy source, a lot of biology do not know the sun is long all one's life what kind of. Their energy, it is a few specific chemical material that come from inside Yu Haiyang.

Inside very long period of time, people thinks to say, the density that these chemical material are inside seawater is very low, can accommodate a few very small bacteria to live only so. But, last centuries 60 time when, some scientists discover in sea floor, some places have the dark biosphere in particularly special and prosperous ocean. Original, these places are in marine volcano around, because of the reason of marine geological action, from here the face is ejective the hot water that containing chemical material in great quantities, is these material, here the face fed one whole ecosystem.

But have a little problem, all hot spring mouths distributing in marine volcano all round, so heat up a spring in two between, the ocean of length and breadth of land of thousands of kilometer, to them, the brimless desert that resembles darkness is same, then these biology are how to span so big desert, those who spread all over a whole world?

Perhaps be secret in the skeleton of whale. Because the skeleton of whale is very giant, and also contain much fat among them kind material. After falling to sea floor when it so, can a lot of bacteria come to here, below the circumstance that lacks oxygen, these fat kind material is decomposed, such decomposing bring up the briny chemistry feature that come out, with respect to the feature with hot spring mouth unusual appearance resembles.

Accordingly, whale fell to become the oasis in deep-sea ocean desert, other deep-sea live thing can be gangplank with it, of one pace span ocean.

Investigator estimation, when whale is most inside the sea, any time, sea mile face has 700 thousand whale to fall, two whale fall the distance between may have only average 12 kilometers. And on the road that migrates in whale, because whale density is very big, so two whale fall the distance between may be met shorter, this distance may be short to 5 kilometers, this distance, enough and deep-sea biology undertakes flighted.

Accordingly to whale, all energy inside it come from sunshine. Sink when it however deep-sea later, became us to give the deep-sea biosphere in darkness best gift.

Considered whale heavy to enter sea floor, consider the flesh on its body already extinct, but the skeleton that relies on its body to go up, with respect to enough alimentary this deep-sea biosphere.
