Later on, with the addition of a CTD (conductivity, temperature, and depth) device, the researchers could finally revisit the Taam Ja’ e. This time the instrument recorded the blue hole’s depth at 1,377 feet below sea level but, to much surprise, the end still was not in sight.
So, although this expedition solidified Taam Ja’ as the deepest blue hole ever discovered, much work remains to uncover the full size of the structure.
This may be a much more daunting task than originally assumed as measurements from Taam Ja’ revealed that the water conditions closely resemble those of blue holes in the Caribbean Sea, all of which connect to intricate cave systems.
