8月10日，中国国家深海基地管理中心组织的2024西太平洋国际航次科考队从山东青岛出发，标志着“蛟龙号”载人潜水器的新一轮深海调查正式开始。此次航次预计持续45天，将重点调查西太平洋地区的海山生态系统，探索深海生物多样性和环境特征。
“深海一号”船作为“蛟龙号”的母船，由中国船舶集团第708研究所设计，具有90.2米的长度、16.8米的型宽和4500吨的设计排水量，拥有超过12000海里的续航力，是开展远洋深海科考的理想平台。
此次航次中，“蛟龙号”将进行18次下潜作业，深入海山区域，收集生物样本，并分析其生态组成。这不仅是中国深海科考的一次重要进展，也是“数字化深海典型生境”大科学计划下的首个国际合作项目。
值得注意的是，此次“蛟龙号”还将首次搭载境外科学家参与深海调查，这标志着中国深海科考的国际合作迈出了新的一步。我国科学家将与来自世界各地的11名境外科学家共同合作，共同推进深海生物多样性的保护和可持续利用。
这一系列的深海探索活动，不仅有助于增进人类对深海环境的了解，也将为全球海洋资源的可持续利用提供科学依据。随着“蛟龙号”等先进深海装备的不断发展，中国在全球海洋科学研究领域的影响力将进一步增强。

Title: “Chi Lung, China’s Manned Submersible, Launches New Voyage to Investigate Deep-Sea Ecosystems in the Western Pacific”
On August 10, the 2024 Western Pacific International Expedition of the China National Marine Science and Technology Museum set sail from Qingdao, Shandong, marking the commencement of a new round of deep-sea investigation by Chi Lung, China’s manned submersible. This voyage, expected to last 45 days, will focus on investigating the marine mountain ecosystems in the Western Pacific, exploring the biodiversity of deep-sea organisms and their environmental characteristics.
The deep-sea exploration vessel “Yongle”, serving as the mother ship for Chi Lung, was designed by the 708th Research Institute of China State Shipbuilding Corporation. With a length of 90.2 meters, a beam of 16.8 meters, and a designed displacement of 4,500 tons, it boasts a range of over 12,000 nautical miles, making it an ideal platform for deep-sea research in distant oceans.
During this voyage, Chi Lung will conduct 18 dives to explore the marine mountain areas, collecting biological samples and analyzing their ecological composition. This is not only an important advance in China’s deep-sea research but also the first international cooperation project under the “Digital Typical Habitat of the Deep Sea” large-scale scientific program.
It is noteworthy that Chi Lung will also carry foreign scientists for the first time during this expedition, marking a new step in China’s deep-sea research international cooperation. Chinese scientists will collaborate with 11 foreign scientists from around the world to jointly promote the protection and sustainable utilization of deep-sea biodiversity.
These deep-sea exploration activities not only contribute to a better understanding of the deep sea by humanity but also provide scientific evidence for the sustainable use of global marine resources. With the continuous development of advanced deep-sea equipment such as Chi Lung, China’s influence in the global field of marine scientific research will further increase.
