ESONET Contract no.036851/<strong><strong>Period</strong>ic</strong> <strong>Activity</strong> <strong>Report</strong>/3 rd <strong>Period</strong><br />
to round out planning in demonstration missions (DMs) and have (or will) include workshops<br />
for Celtnet/Porcupine and Ligurian nodes. In addition, a new section focusing on acoustic<br />
observatory modules and objectives is being prepared. This is being led by FORTH. NERSC,<br />
CINTAL, and ULB. The specific topics include the role of sound in the observation of the<br />
ocean, inverse problems in underwater acoustics related to the monitoring of the marine<br />
environment, ocean acoustic tomography and geoacoustic inversions, acoustic observables<br />
and inversion techniques, instrumentation for ocean acoustic observatories, stationary vs.<br />
mobile observatories, deep-water vs. shallow-water issues, ongoing experiments and IPs. In<br />
their partner-level reporting for <strong>Period</strong> 3, several Partners indicated several progress areas that<br />
fall mostly outside of the DM activities and are only partially captured in D11 and or D13,<br />
including NGI, HCMR, FORTH, ULB, CNRS, NOCS, ITU, NERSC, and DEU-IMST.<br />
NGI deployed an autonomous piezometer system at a gas industry site with a water depth of<br />
1300 m. The monitoring system collects data at 18, 20, and 65 m below the seabed and 4<br />
months of data have already been recovered.<br />
CNRS/LOV developed and tested an underwater vision profiler to quantify marine particles<br />
including sedimentation and resuspension rates with a 3000 m depth rating, which can easily<br />
be modified.<br />
