The video documentary : “UndertheSea: the biodiversity in extreme and remote marine environment in Sicily” was produced by ISPRA in the whole of the Regional Observatory Biodiversity of the Sicilian Region. The images concern areas not well known, as the underwater volcanoes of the Aeolian islands and remote sea bottom of the Strait of Sicily, explored with the ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle), a guided camera, which can reach up to 500 meters deep, and the MultiBeam, which allows to make detailed bathymetric charts of the seabed in 3D. The amazing spectacular scenarios in the video shows perfectly the environments that the Institutions should protect, in a challenge made more difficult by the many attempts to exploit in incorrect way the island, but that a work like this will can definitely make an important contribution to take care this area.
