Researchers have found “sea rainforests” in deep seas, most of them in the two-thirds of the ocean’s deep waters where no nation has jurisdiction. The 116 coral reefs live mostly between 200m and 1,200m in-depth, with some of them at 2 km underwater. Scientists found a lot of corals on seamounts in the Pacific and Atlantic, with fewer numbers in the Indian Ocean.
