  1. Norwegian participation in EMSO - European Multidisciplinary Seafloor Observation UoT J. Mienert Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  2. Background ESFRI Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  3. 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].

  4. Implementation at Ocean margins: Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  5. 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. Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  6. Norwegian participation: Develop next generation of science and technology towards a strategic observing, monitoring and prediction system 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. Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  7. Participating Countries in Europe: Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  8. 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) Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  9. 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. Det matematisk– naturvitenskapelige fakultet

  10. 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.
