LoVe cable based observatory

CABLE is an infrastructure with a suite of physical biological and chemical sensors that involves and impacts several scientific fields and is expected to stimulate innovation and new research. The main driver is the capability of real time monitoring and the possibility to act in accordance with observations. Coupled information is a requirement in most research that aims at understanding function and dynamics of the marine environment and associated marine life as well as assessing impacts due human activity. Cable and node of the Cabled based observatory were launched in spring 2013.
