Frogfish in the Sargasso Sea

A sargassum frogfish photographed in a tank after being captured by scientists collecting sargassum seaweed for research purposes aboard the Greenpeace ship Esperanza during its expedition to the Sargasso Sea.
Greenpeace is on an expedition in the Sargasso Sea, a unique region in the North Atlantic Ocean that is home to a diverse array of marine life, including loggerhead and green sea turtles.
The journey, part of the "Protect the Oceans" year long tour, will see Greenpeace and University of Florida researchers team up to study the impact of plastics and microplastics on marine life and the importance that the Sargasso's drifting Sargassum seaweed habitat has for the development of juvenile sea turtles.
