Abstract
What sort of life do you associate with Antarctica? Penguins? Seals? Whales?
Actually, life in Antarctic waters is much broader than this, and surprisingly diverse.
Hidden under the cover of sea-ice for most of the year, and living in cold water near the
seafloor, are thousands of unique and colourful species.
