Abstract | Ocean science with a focus on hadal zones is now called hadal science. The study of hadal science needs the special technology support such as landers, unmanned submersibles and manned submersibles. Sending deployments to hadal depths is technically challenging and expensive, consequently, our current understanding of hadal ecological structure is still very much in its infancy. The hadal trenches and the biology and ecology of the creatures that inhabit them remain one of the least understood marine environments. In recognition of the significant potential that hadal science holds and the unique and challenging requirements that work in the deep ocean presents, Shanghai Ocean University has made a significant commitment to provide operational support for these efforts. The present authors were invited by Shanghai Ocean University from jiaolong development team to establish a hadal science and technology research center (HAST). The first focus of HAST in the next couple of years is to construct a movable laboratory for the development of hadal science in China. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the basic concepts for the movable laboratory and some preliminary considerations on how to overcome the technical challenges and funding challenge, especially the technical challenges on the development of the full ocean depth (FOD) human occupied vehicle (HOV). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
