Abstract

The Atlantic dimension of Portugal led to the prioritisation of the European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and Water Column Observatory – Portugal (EMSO-PT) in the national scientific infrastructures’ roadmap. EMSO-PT is a research consortium that brings together 15 research institutions, aiming at implementing a network of multidisciplinary underwater observatories located along the Atlantic coast, laboratories, and data processing support infrastructures. The goal of EMSO-PT is to generate continuous scientific data on marine environmental processes related to the interaction between the geosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere and to develop new sensors and platforms which will extend ocean monitoring national capabilities soon.
