Abstract:
|
The implementation of submarine sensors at regional scale
has been considered within the ESFRI Roadmap as a
European strategic infrastructure. In this sense European
Union has funded projects as ESONET and EMSO that are
initiatives to establish a network of long-term deep sea
observatories. Within this framework, Spanish Ministry of
Science and Innovation has made an effort, supporting and
funding several projects concerning marine platforms at
submarine and coastal areas to accomplish these
technological challenges.
The OBSEA submarine platform was deployed by the BO
Sarmiento de Gamboa last 19th May, since then is working
properly and only some adjustments have been needed. In
this initial period the submarine laboratory OBSEA will be
available for ESONET and EMSO communities for testing and
developing new sensors, with the advantage of an easily
reachable location and online checking through web page. |
