Abyssal plain faunal carbon flows remain depressed 26 years after a simulated deep-sea mining disturbance
<p>Future deep-sea mining for polymetallic nodules in abyssal plains will negatively impact the benthic ecosystem, but it is largely unclear whether this ecosystem will be able to recover from mining disturbance and if so, to what extent and at what timescale. During the <q>DISturbanc...
