In extremely deep waters (two miles deep) , the vast sea appears empty. But as naturalist and artist Sophie Webb shows us, it is full of fascinating - yet difficult to study - life. Together with her shipmates, Sophie counts and collects samples of life in the deep ocean, from seabirds to dolphins, from winged fish to whales. Only their long-term field work can really help scientists determine the health of these remarkable creatures who need the clean deep ocean to survive.<p></p>
