00:01The Agulhas too will cruise for two months through the Western Indian Ocean,
00:07a region which so far has seen hardly any research.
00:11The Masquerine Plateau contains a long chain of volcanic islands
00:16which extend from La Réunion to the south of the Seychelles,
00:21and that is where the expedition's first destination is located, Aldabra Atoll.
00:28One of the most important vehicles on board is a remotely operated vehicle, or ROV,
00:35a remote-controlled unmanned submarine which will, it is hoped,
00:39descend into previously unexplored depths of the Indian Ocean.
00:47Hervé Klostre and his colleagues are studying the effects of global warming on the deep sea,
00:52especially the zone where there is still light.
00:57The Twilight Zone is the place where there is what we call the manifestation of the biological carbon pump,
01:05that takes the carbon from photosynthesis at the surface down to the depths.
01:12And the biological carbon pump might change as a result of climate change.
01:17What we are trying to work and to understand is how this could be modified in the future.
01:27The Family is the most basic human, who has a carbon-sized turbine system.
