The First Marine Observation Network System: Neptune Canada Submarine Observation Technology

Neptune Canada is the first marine observation network system. It is to cover the Juan de Faca Plate of the whole northeast Pacific Ocean region and thus will turn over a new page in the earth science research. Through the main arterial photo-electric cable, it connects instruments and equipment at five nodes and makes long-term real-time observation at sea bottom. With a strong data management and filing system, it transmits observation data in a real-time way for scientists and science enthusiasts to use free of charge. Canadian submarine observation technology is mainly applied in such aspects as detecting submarine volcanic activities, monitoring seismic and tsunami activities of this region constantly, probing into minerals, metals and hydrocarbon resources, deeply studying interaction between ocean and atmosphere, understanding the cyclic process of marine hothouse gas, exploring the secrets of marine ecological system and investigating problems like the marine periodic changes, the creation and regeneration of energy resources, the marine mammal community, the storage of marine fishery, and the pollution and toxic spread.
