Success in multi-point underwater electromagnetic wave communication applicable for real-time sensing of the marine environment! The research team of the Exploratory Deployment Group of Sony Group Corporation is working to develop a new underwater wireless communication system that uses electromagnetic waves. Leveraging the difference in characteristics from the existing acoustic wave and optical communication methods, this technology has the potential of application to the environmental sensing in shallow waters, the observation of coastal facilities, and other applications prone to be influenced by suspended solids, seaweeds, sea surface and seabed, etc. Visit our website to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gJJ2G-hx #UnderwaterAntenna #UnderwaterWirelesCommunication #Sony #Research

New year and new projects! As part of the Pro Bono service that VTA Tassin is delivering every year, founder Virginie Tassin Campanella, based on her expertise of seabed and ocean observation, was invited to join the Joint Task Force on SMART Submarine Cables, with a new team and agenda starting from 2024. This task force is designed to support the Science Monitoring and Reliable Telecommunications (SMART) Subsea Cables Initiative which seeks to revolutionize deep sea observing by equipping transoceanic telecommunications cables with sensors to provide novel and persistent insights into the state of the ocean, at a modest incremental cost. These cables are indeed designed to play a critical role for the monitoring of climate change, ocean heat content, circulation, sea level rise, early warnings for earthquakes and tsunamis, and monitor seismic activity for earth structure and related hazards. This task force is made up of 3 United Nations organizations: the International Telecommunications Union (#ITU), the World Meteorological Organization (#WMO), and the Intergovermental Oceanographic Commission (#IOC UNESCO). It is responsible for charting a path for the implementation of SMART monitoring capabilities into new cable installations worldwide. #Seabed #SeabedManagement #SubmarineCables #OceanObservation #OceanData #Telecommunication #ClimateChange #TsunamiPrevention #UNCLOS #Security #CompetingOceanUses #LegalFramework https://lnkd.in/gtp4866w

#Temperature is an essential #oceanographic variable (EOV) that still today remains coarsely resolved below the surface and near the #seafloor. Here, the authors gather evidence to confirm that Distributed #Acoustic Sensing (DAS) #technology can convert tens of kilometer-long seafloor fiber-optic telecommunication cables into dense #arrays of temperature anomaly #sensors having millikelvin (mK) sensitivity, thus allowing to monitor #oceanic processes such as #internalwaves and upwelling with unprecedented detail. Notably, they report #highresolution observations of highly coherent near-inertial and super-inertial internal waves in the NW Mediterranean sea, offshore of Toulon, France, having spatial extents of a few kilometers and producing maximum thermal anomalies of more than 5 K at maximum absolute rates of more than 1 K/h. They validated their observations with in-situ oceanographic sensors and an alternative optical fiber sensing technology. Currently, DAS only provides temperature changes estimates, however practical solutions are outlined to obtain continuous absolute temperature measurements with DAS at the seafloor. Their observations grant key advantages to DAS over established temperature sensors, showing its transformative potential for the description of seafloor temperature fluctuations over an extended range of spatial and temporal scales, as well as for the understanding of the evolution of the #ocean in a broad sense (e.g. physical and ecological). Diverse ocean-oriented fields could benefit from the potential applications of this fast-developing technology. Pelaez Quiñones, J.D., Sladen, A., Ponte, A. et al.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐛 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐃𝐅 – https://lnkd.in/d6KEcvax Underwater acoustic communication is a specialized form of communication that enables data transmission and messaging in underwater environments, where traditional radio frequency signals are ineffective due to the high attenuation and absorption of electromagnetic waves in water. By leveraging sound waves as a medium for data transmission, underwater acoustic communication systems facilitate communication between submarines, underwater vehicles, oceanographic instruments, and surface vessels, enabling ocean exploration, scientific research, underwater surveillance, and offshore operations. Environmental factors, such as temperature gradients, salinity variations, underwater topography, and ambient noise, impact the performance and reliability of underwater acoustic communication systems. Research efforts focus on modeling underwater acoustic channels, characterizing environmental effects, and developing adaptive communication techniques to mitigate the effects of channel impairments and enhance communication reliability in dynamic underwater environments. Underwater acoustic communication plays a pivotal role in enabling connectivity, data exchange, and command and control capabilities in underwater environments, supporting a wide range of applications in ocean exploration, scientific research, maritime surveillance, and offshore operations. As advancements in acoustic modem technology, signal processing algorithms, and underwater networking protocols continue to evolve, underwater acoustic communication systems will play an increasingly vital role in unlocking the mysteries of the ocean depths and supporting human activities in the underwater realm. 🌊📡 Application: Oil & Gas Military & Defense Homeland Security Scientific Research & Development Marine Top players: Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, Kongsberg Maritime, Thales Group, Ultra Electronics Group, Sonardyne International Ltd, EvoLogics GmbH, DSPComm, Mistral AI, Nortek, Aquatec Group, Baltrobotics, Tritech International Limited, GAVIAL HOLDINGS, INC., HYDROACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGY INC, LinkQuest Technologies Limited, Aquatic Sensors Network Technology, Proserv. #underwatercommunication #oceanexploration #underwatertechnology #acousticmodems #underwateracousticcommunication #acoustictechnology #marinecommunication #oceanography #marinescience #subseacommunication #underwateracoustics #oceanresearch #marineengineering

Fiber-Optic Sensing (FOS) The Submarine Cable industry can show how science is essential to help the environment and consequently humanity. Since the discovery of sensing capabilities of operational submarine cables, a perfect storm of smart optical spectroscopic techniques enabled the enhancement of cable security and environmental protection. As awareness of the importance and complexity of the ocean environment becomes increasingly clear, the need for improved sensing, with better spatial resolution and increased temporal coverage, is now pressing. Submarine cables developed to transmit information between continents can be used as sensors. https://lnkd.in/d4BwKVyQ

"As NOAA busily prepares for the June launch of the last satellite in the GOES-R series, GOES-U, it is already working on the next series of advanced geostationary satellites—the Geostationary Extended Observations mission, or GeoXO. When GeoXO launches in the early 2030s, it will include several new state-of-the-art instruments onboard. One of those will be the Atmospheric Composition instrument, or ACX, which will provide critical information about Earth’s atmosphere from geostationary orbit." #satellitedata #earthobservation #atmosphere #airquality

The use of satellites to monitor and track carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions is becoming more pressing than ever, and it will revolutionise the way that greenhouse gas emissions are tracked and monitored. Satellite observations of the earth's surface will yield comprehensive data on things like land cover, biomass in forests, fires, and biological productivity. We can estimate a variety of GHG gas types and their spatial distribution using this enormous dataset. Modern space technology can help us achieve both our energy security and climate goals. Examples of this include multispectral remote sensing systems that measure the sources of greenhouse gas emissions and synthetic aperture radars that estimate forest canopy. Do your own research and you may probably find that there are some access portals providing free Satellite data to the public. #climate #earthobservations #sustainability #environment #spacetech #spacenews #space https://lnkd.in/g4UwvSte
