  1. Website Available
    Polar Time-Lapse
    Institute of Oceanology
    Polish Academy of Sciences

The Institute of Oceanology at the Polish Academy of Sciences announces
availability of the Polar Time-lapse (Surface and Underwater) website.

The website contains time-lapse images gathered by divers during polar
night and day for the purpose of the on-going Marine Night Project, Mare
Incognitum. The time-lapse photography provides images of processes that
are too slow for human perception and the potential to preview and
monitor sites and organisms in the remote polar sea locations for
extended periods of time.

The website authors hope to use the tools, know-how, and techniques
gained from this project in their future studies and plan to upload new
videos when available.

To view the website, please go to: http://www.polartimelapse.net.
