Links to programmes: The European GMES programme for Global Monitoring for Environment and Security has identified a need for a sub-sea component of a proposed surveillance system as a complementary instrument to land and space born systems.

EMSO observatories will allow permanent real-time environmental monitoring under global climate change. Thus EMSO is expected to become one of the key- components of GMES and the GEOS 10-year implementation plan[1].

EMSO objectives:

The European Multidisciplinary Seafloor Observation (EMSO) infrastructure is based on a European-scale network of seafloor observatories and platforms with the basic scientific objective of long-term monitoring mainly in real-time of environmental processes related to the interaction between the geosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere.

Norwegian participation:

Develop next generation of science and technologytowards a strategic observing, monitoring and predictionsystem for a permanent interactive presence in the ocean.

Global climate change will affect the physical, biological and biogeochemical characteristics of ocean environments along the Norwegian-Barents-Svalbard margin modifying their functions in an unknown way.

Type of EU funding:

Combination of collaborative project and coordination and support action

Requested financial EU support: 5.6 Mio Eur

Coordinator:Dr Paolo Favali – Rome, Italy

Norwegian partner: UoT (on behalf of the NNC)

UoT responsible WP4 (Consolidate funding as well as industry commitments)

Preparatory phase:

Diversity of regional sites in terms of available legal frameworks;

Harmonisation of funding (national, European, international, industrial) with respect to scope, objectives, and timing;

Logistic constraints regarding available resources;

Possible technical bottle neck solutions;

close cooperation with US colleagues and industry.

Activities:

EMSO deep-sea observatories will be deployed on specific sites around European waters, reaching from the Arctic to the Mediterranean Sea.

EMSO will be integrated from several regional infrastructures each based on sub-sea observatory sites (RLEs-Regional Legal Entities) all having a single coordination entity (CLE-Core Legal Entity).

EMSO will take part in the international endeavour in seafloor observatories.
