This film documents the technical, scientific, and ecological challenges of deep
sea researchers. Scientists work worldwide together to collect data on the physical
state of the upper ocean. With more than 3,000 autonomous floats they monitor

the oceans for influences on weather systems like El Nino or the monsoon. Does it
affect global climate change? Definition Episodes
