{{short description|A pressurized recovery device designed for retrieving deep-sea marine life}}

The PERISCOP is a pressurized recovery device designed for retrieving deep-sea marine life at depths exceeding 2,000 metres.[1]{{rp|881}} The device was designed by Bruce Shillito and Gerard Hamel at the Universite Pierre et Marie Curie.[2] The name is an acronym for the French phrase Projet d’Enceinte de Remontée Isobare Servant la Capture d’Organismes Profonds ("Enclosure project for isobaric ascent serving to capture deep organisms").[1]

History

The PERISCOP is a unique pressurized recovery devices that contains three chambers – one for capture, one for recovery under exterior pressure, and one for transfer to the laboratory while maintaining pressure. Previous recovery devices used one chamber for all purposes.[1]{{rp|882}} An arm designed to capture samples by force of suction is attached to the device.[2] During ascent, pressure is maintained within the chamber by use of pressurized water.[1]{{rp|883}} Upon surfacing, samples can be observed, filmed, and/or photographed through transparent view ports in the device.[1]{{rp|884}} Due to fluctuations in atmospheric pressure and temperature recorded pressures during ascent and at the surface may ranged from 74%-111% of the natural pressure at sea depth.[1]{{rp|884}} The device set a record for the deepest live-fish capture under pressure when it captured a Pachycara at 2,300 m.[1]{{rp|887}} The previous record was 1,400 m.[2] The capture was the first to be performed at a hydrothermal vent.[1]{{rp|886}}[2] The device has also recovered several shrimp species (Mirocaris fortunata, Chorocaris chacei, and Rimicaris exoculata) at vent fields Lucky Strike and Rainbow.[2][2]
