A giant river, which is even feasible crowned as the sixth largest river in the world recently discovered by British scientists.

Remarkably, this river is found at the bottom of the Black Sea, a deep-sea between southeastern Europe and Asia Minor.

Scientists from Leeds University to deploy a robot submarine to examine and scan the seabed near Turkey's.

Plain abisal at sea much like in the desert, the difference between plain water can provide nutrients and materials needed for the creatures that live in it.

Just as on land, rivers beneath the sea that has channels, creeks, flood plains, stream water rapids and even waterfalls.

The main difference in the underwater river is that water flow in contrast to the rivers on land.

Water flow, which carries salt water and sediment, 350 times greater than the River Thames in England.

This is the only active submarine river found. It is located on the Bosphorus Strait that flows from the Mediterranean to the Black Sea. The flow of river water underground that caused differences in salinity.

Dr. Parsons found that the underground river at the base of the Black Sea flowed at about four miles per hour, drain 22,000 cubic meters of water per second. This is 10 times larger than Europe's largest rivers, the Rhine.

This underwater river flowing river is only about 37 miles until it reaches the shelf edge before menghilangke deep sea.
