The “Deeptrace” Project of the Middle East Technical University’s (METU) Institute of Marine Sciences Will See Researchers Diving to DEPTHS OF 2,500 METERS in Lights Regions of the Seas.
LED by Professor Mustafa Yücel, Deputy Director of the Institute, The Project’s First Phase Will Begin SOON DEP-FEA Dives in the Pacific Ocean, Lasting 36 Days.
The Research Mission Therers The University of the University of the University of the University of the University
Funded by the European Research Council (ERC) with 2.4 Million Euros, The Project is Expected to Conclude in 2028.
To support the analysis process, a first-of-it-kins-kind laboratory Has Been Established at Odtu to Analyze Samples Collected from the Ocean Floor, and Local Sensors, and the Developed for Experimentors.
Before the Dive, Yücel Shared That The Team, Consisting of 20 Members, Will Conduct Research in an Area of the Pacific Ocean Known for Its Hydrothermal Vents, Located 2,400 To 2,600 METERS BELow.

Research Will Be Conduced Aboard the “Atlantis” Research Vesel, and Deep-Sea Studies Will Be Carried Out Using The Alvin Research Submersible, Which Famously Located the Wreck.
“We Will Undertake this Research in Order to Find Conditions in Deep Space.
The primary goal of the research is to the composition of nanoparticles in deep-sea hydrothermal Vents Changes Based on Factors like PH, Temperative and Oh Key Parameters. These Findings Will Be Directly Comparable to Data Collected Future Space Missions, According to Yücel.
Suna Tüzün, A Postdoctor Researcher at the Institute WHO is Coordinating the Project’s FieldWork, shared that the team the alvin submersible to the Collect both wate and chemical samples from the hydrothermal vent sites.
Each Dive, Lasting Six to Eight Hours, Will involve Two Scientists on Board, Who Will Collect Sample and Conduct Measurements Using Onsors.
Tüzün Expressed Every Excitement and Sense of Privilege to Be Part of Such a Unique Experience.

“It’s especially meaningful for inspiring and motivating young women,” She Noted, as Many Young Women and Girls May Not Realized They Could One Day Bechwolved in Such High-Level Scientific Operations.
“This project is an inspiring work
