... with the basic scientific objective of long-term monitoring mainly in real-time of environmental processes related to the interaction between the geosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere.

Norwegian Ocean Observatory Network (NOON), led by the Norwegian consortium of cable-based ocean observatory, is developing science and education programmes associated with studies of the ocean off the Norwegian coast in area between the Atlantic and Arctic Ocean coasts. NOON aims to implement new cable technology to extended bandwidth and power to the seafloor, with the basic scientific objective of long-term monitoring mainly in real-time of environmental processes related to the interaction between the geosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere. This will enable unique interactive access to the oceans and the last frontier on Earth will be accessible to a global community of scientists, educators, decision makers, and learners of all ages.
