EMSO Azores Seamon-East Chemini dissolved iron concentration

This dataset contains dissolved iron concentrations ((Fe(II) + Fe(III); µmol/l) acquired between September 2013 and July 2017 using the CHEMINI Fe, a CHEmical MINIaturized analyser (samples taken every 12 hours, with daily in situ calibration using a 20 µmol/l iron standard, Vuillemin et al., 2009). The sample inlet was positioned on the mussel bed at the base of the Tour Eiffel edifice of the Lucky Strike hydrothermal vent (1695 depth).CHEMINI Fe (CF2) was mounted on the TEMPO module which was itself connected to the SeaMON East node of the EMSO-Azores observatory. Measured properties: temperature and Total dissolved iron concentration

EMSO Azores TCM3-1 Ocean Bottom Tilt Current Meter : 2016-2017

The TCM-3 Ocean Bottom Tilt Current Meter from Lowell Instruments LLC (North Falmouth, MA, USA) measures current using the drag-tilt principle. The logger is buoyant and is anchored to the bottom via a short flexible tether. Drag from moving water tilts the logger in the direction of flow. The logger's accelerometer and magnetometer channels are used to record the amount of tilt and direction of tilt (compass bearing). The array currentmeters are deployed near the Tour Eiffel, MontsÃ©gur and White Castle hydrothermal vent sites. The array is not connected to an energy node. The currentmeter's internal clocks are set to UTC time before deployment. Clock drift after recovery is not implemented in data but added as metadata in the file

DYFAMED Time Series from 1994 to 2014 (43°25N - 7°52E). In the framework of the French MOOSE program, a fixed point observatory in the Ligurian Sea (so called DYFAMED) performs since 1991 physical, biogeochemical and biological observations of the water column structure. This observatory is hosted and managed by the Oceanological Observatory in Villefranche-sur-Mer (CNRS-SU)

EMSO Western Ligurian : Albatross mooring, AQUADOPP sensor (NetCDF 2014-2015)

The European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and water column Observatory (EMSO) is a research infrastructure distributed throughout Europe for seabed and water column observatories. It aims to further explore the oceans, better understand the phenomena that occur on the seabed, and elucidate the critical role that these phenomena play in global Earth systems. This observatory is based on observation sites (or nodes) that have been deployed in strategic locations in European seas, from the Arctic to the Atlantic, from the Mediterranean to the Black Sea. There are currently eleven deep water nodes plus four shallow water test nodes. EMSO Western Ligurian is one of these permanent underwater observatories located in the Ligurian Sea and is deployed off Toulon, France. This region was chosen for its particular scientific interests such as: seismicity, topography, turbidity, biodiversity, water mass dynamics and organic matter flow. This underwater observation network is also part of KM3NeT (https://www.km3net.org/) which has a modular topology designed to connect up to 120 neutrino detection units. Earth and Sea Science (ESS) instrumentation connected to KM3NeT is based on two complementary components: an instrumented interface module (MII) and an autonomous instrumented line (ALBATROSS). The ALBATROSS line is an inductive line (2000 m) composed of an acoustic communication system, two inductive cables equipped with Conductivity, Temperature, Depth (CTD)-O2 sensors, current meters and two instrumented buoys. This line is deployed at a distance of 2-3 kilometers from the MII, and communication on land is done by an acoustic link with the MII, and electro-optical cable via the KM3NeT node.

This underwater observation network is also part of KM3NeT (https://www.km3net.org/) which has a modular topology designed to connect up to 120 neutrino detection units. Earth and Sea Science (ESS) instrumentation connected to KM3NeT is based on two complementary components: an instrumented interface module (MII) and an autonomous instrumented line (ALBATROSS). The ALBATROSS line is an inductive line (2000 m) composed of an acoustic communication system, two inductive cables equipped with Conductivity, Temperature, Depth (CTD)-O2 sensors, current meters and two instrumented buoys. This line is deployed at a distance of 2-3 kilometers from the MII, and communication on land is done by an acoustic link with the MII, and electro-optical cable via the KM3NeT node.

This dataset contains seafloor pressure data acquired in the framework of EMSO-Azores observatory between September 2016 and July 2017 using a SBE53 pressure gauges deployed on two sites.
West site : The sensor was deployed on an existing benchmark installed with the submersible Nautile in August 2006 during the GRAVILUCK cruise (https://doi.org/10.17600/6010110). The benchmark sits on hard substratum with light hydrothermal sedimentation, on the North-West border of the Lucky Strike lava lake, next to a hydrothermal site.
East site : The sensor was deployed on an existing benchmark installed by freefall in July 2007 during the MOMARDREAM cruise (https://doi.org/10.17600/7030060). The benchmark sits in the axial valley, East of the LuckyStrike volcano in a lightly sedimented area, with apparent pillow lavas.

EMSO-LO Western Ligurian : BJS_Bathydock Optode sensors (NetCDF files from 2023-09-20)

The European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and water column Observatory (EMSO) is a research infrastructure distributed throughout Europe for seabed and water column observatories.  It aims to further explore the oceans, better understand the phenomena that occur on the seabed, and elucidate the critical role that these phenomena play in global Earth systems.  This observatory is based on observation sites (or nodes) that have been deployed in strategic locations in European seas, from the Arctic to the Atlantic, from the Mediterranean to the Black Sea.  There are currently eleven deep water nodes plus four shallow water test nodes.  EMSO Western Ligurian (EMSO-WL) is one of these permanent underwater observatories located in the Ligurian Sea and is deployed off Toulon, France. This region was chosen for its particular scientific interests such as: seismicity, topography, turbidity, biodiversity, water mass dynamics and organic matter flow.  This underwater observation network is located close by KM3NeT (https://www.km3net.org/) which has a modular topology designed to connect up to 120 neutrino detection units. Earth and Sea Science (ESS) instrumentation at the EMSO-WL station is based on two complementary components: an instrumented interface module (MII) and an autonomous instrumented line (ALBATROSS) as well as a junction box (BJS). The BathyFamily is a package of innovative multi-instrumented platforms to observe the deep sea. BathyBot is an Internet Operated Vehicle (IOV) deployed from a landing station (BathyDock), and close to BathyReef a 3D-printed biomimetic colonizer
