There are plenty of seismic stations on land helping detect and record earthquakes but very little deployed in our sea’s and oceans. Marine seismic detectors have traditionally been expensive, unreliable and not widely deployed. In recent years, research has shown that new and existing submarine cables can be used to detect seismic activity. Given that two thirds of our planet is covered by Oceans, this new development provides a great opportunity to improve our knowledge of the geological activity of our planet. Additionally, an early warning of an imminent Tsunami can save thousands of lives.
This presentation will introduce the recent developments in sensing on Submarine Fibre Optic Cables and introduce the key sensing technologies employed.
