The NEPTUNE program will deploy a regional cabled ocean observatory on the Juan de Fuca tectonic plate off the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia. Extensive networks of instruments, connected to the observatory’s fiber-optic/power cable, will enable studies of a wide range of oceanographic, geological, and ecological processes. Via the Internet, NEPTUNE will provide unprecedented real-time and archived data to a global community of scientists, engineers, educators, decision makers, and learners of all ages.
