  1. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 EXtreme ecosystem studies in the deep OCEan: Technological Developments : EXOCET/D P.-M. Sarradin, J. Sarrazin, J.F. Cadiou et al EUROPEAN Project FP6, STREP, Specific programme: Integrating and Strengthening the European Research Area, Priority thematic area : GLOBAL CHANGE AND ECOSYSTEMS, FP6-GOCE-CT-2003-50534236 months, January 2004

  2. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 The EXOCET/D consortium

  3. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 Project objectives (1) To develop,implement and test specific instruments aimed at exploring, describing, quantifying and monitoring biodiversity in deep-sea fragmented habitats (depths : up to 6000 m). patchy faunal distribution (1 to 100 m²) strong environmental constraints tight relationships organisms / environment

  4. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 Project objectives (2) • Emission of reduced fluids (H2S, CH4…) • Peculiar topographic structures • Massive organic input Deep corals (Caracole 2001) Cold seeps (Biozaire 2002) Hydrothermal vents (HOPE99) Hydrothermal vents (ATOS 2001)

  5. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 Project objectives (3) • Site studies (a cruise) • spatial investigation • hour/day temporal scale • Long term approach • month to year

  6. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 Projectplanning Phase 2004 2005 2006 Development Tools/platforms integration Test, demonstration

  7. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP2 video imagery, image scaling and measurements, automatic image analysis, To set up a complete methodology to make a projective 3D reconstruction of small-scale scenes from underwater video imagery, To design a long-term imaging module, To develop a macrophotography module Victor 6000 PICO 98

  8. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP2 acoustic imagery to evaluate the potential of using sonar data to study deep-sea community changes and to explore their complementarity with video imagery bottom classification S. Durand et al., (2002) CBM, 43:235

  9. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP3 in situ analysis of habitat chemical and physical components; Adaptation of existing « sensors », Second version of the Alchimist in situ analyser nitrates, Fe, H2S Optimisation of the Capsum Methane sensor, Optimisation of the « Medusa » fluid flowmeter Design of a water sampler Alchimist, HOPE99 Flowmeter, ATOS2001 Water sampler

  10. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP4 quantitative sampling of macro- and micro organisms, in vivo experiments Optimal sampling of deep-sea micro- and macroorganisms, Improved in vivo experimental conditions on board research ships, at in situ pressure. AISICS : in situ instrumented bacterial colonisation device K. Takai et al, 2003, FEMS PERISCOP : isobaric sampling cell Ipocamp, ATOS 2001 DESEARES : respirometer system

  11. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP5 Tool integration on European submersibles Interface specifications and tools sharing, ROV, AUV, submersibles and benthic stations Integration on prototype structure and ROV / AUV

  12. Mosaic realized with MATISSE software (Ifremer) ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP6 Data integration Georeference and visualize images, sampling and sensor data at a sub-metric scale 3D GIS; Integrate and visualise temporal data ADELIE software (Ifremer)

  13. ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 WP7 Demonstration action Organise subsystem testing during the project Organise demonstration actions in contrasted ecosystems MoMARETO cruise proposal, 2006 Ifremer 20 days, MoMAR zone Pourquoi pas ? / Victor6000

  14. 1700m Lucky Strike ISOPE, Toulon, May 2004 MoMARETO, 2006 Technical validation of EXOCET/D tools Scientific testing and validation Studying the response of hydrothermal species to their environment at two temporal scales - micro variations of the habitat (hour/ day) - observatory scale (month/ year) Site studies First long term ASSEM based observatory MoMAR project
