EMSOEMSO, a Research Infrastructure of the ESFRI Roadmap, is the European network of fixed seafloor and water column observatories constituting a distributed infrastructure for long-term (mainly) real-time monitoring of environmental processes
In the EC-FP7 EMSO Preparatory PhaseEMSO Preparatory Phase (12 countries) started in April 2008 for 4 years with the aim to design and create the legal entity in charge of the infrastructure

Sustained observations are essential at a sufficiently high frequency to explore the time changing properties of the oceanic environment
Investigation of the complex interrelations between processes and properties from the top of the ocean to the seabed beneath:
- Short-time scales (minutes, hours to days)
- Longer-time scales (annual to decadal)
