Carl Chun

Carl Chun was a German zoologist and oceanographer known for his significant contributions to marine biology in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is most recognized for his research on deep-sea organisms and the use of trawling techniques to study marine life. Chun led notable expeditions, including those to the abyssal depths of the ocean, enhancing our understanding of deep-sea ecosystems. His work laid important groundwork for future oceanographic research and helped illuminate the diversity of life in the deep sea. Chun's legacy continues to influence marine science and exploration today.
