  How underwater mediation has transformed deep-sea spaces into resource-rich frontiers 
   
   
   
  Green energy technologies such as windmills, solar panels, and electric vehicles may soon depend on material found at the seabed. How did a space once imagined to be empty and unfathomable come to be thought of as a treasure trove of resources? Lisa Yin Han traces how contemporary developments in underwater sensing and imaging materially and imaginatively transmogrify the ocean bottom into a resource frontier capable of sustaining a digitally connected global future. 
   
   
   
  Set against the backdrop of climate change, energy transition, and the expansion of industrial offshore extractions, Deepwater Alchemy looks at oceanic media and its representation of the seabed in terms of valuable resources. From high-tech simulations to laboratories and archives that collect and analyze sediments, Han explores the media technologies that survey, visualize, and condition the possibility for industrial resource extraction, introducing the concept of extractive mediation to describe the conflations between resource prospecting and undersea knowledge production. Moving away from anthropocentric frameworks, she argues that we must equalize access to deep ocean mediation and include the submerged perspectives of multispecies communities.

  Megalodon The: The History and...

  As scary as the shark in Jaws is, the extinct megalodon had teeth three times the length of those found within the jaws of a great white shark, so a human would only have been a small snack. In fact, the megalodon was capable of swallowing a small car. Known to scientists as Otodus megalodon or Carcharocles megalodon (otodus meaning “tooth shaped like an ear”; carcharocles meaning “well known for jaggedness”; and megalodon meaning “big tooth”), this predator lived approximately 23–3.6 million years ago), from the early Miocene Epoch to the early Pliocene Epoch. The genus name Otodus and the family name Otodontidae are now the most commonly used, but scientific literature remains full of the older designation, and many of the shark experts regard the new family designation as flawed.  
  	For many years, megalodon was thought to be more closely related to the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias), and though both are still part of the order Lamniformes, the two species now reside in different families: Lamnidae and Otodontidae (megalodon). Either way, while great white sharks can reach sizes of 20 feet long and nearly 2.5 tons in weight, the average megalodon was twice as big, and some of them may have been about three times as big. The sheer size allowed it to target prey as big as whales, and the massive jaw allowed it to simply tear through any kind of body with no regard for the prey’s most vulnerable spots.  
  	While all of that seems to be beyond dispute, almost everything else about the history of the megalodon is up for debate, from its origins to its extinction.  The Megalodon: The History and Legacy of the World’s Largest Prehistoric Predator covers that expansive history in detail, from what is known to what remains most mysterious.
