  • CABLE is an infrastructure with a suite of physical biological and chemical sensors that involves and impacts several scientific fields and is expected to stimulate innovation and new research. The main driver is the capability of real time monitoring and the possibility to act in accordance with observations. Coupled information is a requirement in most research that aims at understanding function and dynamics of the marine environment and associated marine life as well as assessing impacts due human activity. Cable and node of the Cabled based observatory were launched in spring 2013.

  • The Reference Fleet is a small group of Norwegian fishing vessels that provide the IMR with detailed information about their fishing activity and catches on a regular basis. The sampling and data management procedures are similar to the system used on board IMR’s research vessels. Data is used for management purposes including stock assessment. The FV Vester Junior is one of the 20 coastal fishing vessels along the Norwegian coast included within the IMR reference fleet.

  • MAREANO maps depth and topography, sediment composition, biodiversity, habitats and biotopes, and pollution in the seabed in Norwegian coastal and offshore regions. MAREANO is coordinated by the Institute of Marine Research, in collaboration with the Geological Survey of Norway and the Norwegian Hydrographic Service. The Programme is financed by the Ministry of Fisheries and Coastal Affairs, the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Trade and Industry, via contributions from the National Budget. The Programme aims to provide answers to questions such as: - How is the seascape of the Norwegian continental shelf? - What does the seabed consist of? - How is the biodiversity distributed on the seabed? - How are habitats and biotopes distributed on the seabed? - What is the relationship between the physical environment, biodiversity and biological resources? - How much contaminants are stored in the bottom sediments? ​​​​​​​​ The Institute of Marine Research, the Geological Survey of Norway and the Norwegian Mapping Authority comprise the Executive Group which is responsible for carrying out the MAREANO field sampling and other scientific activities. The Programme Group, led by the Norwegian Environment Agency, has the executive responsibility for the MAREANO activities.

  • FERRY is installed on the coastal steamer MV Vesterålen measuring T, S, Chlorophyll fluorescence and oxygen permanently as well as 30 individual samples are taken on all roundtrips from Bergen-Kirkenes and back. This roundtrip is repeated every 11 days throughout the year.

The sampling and data management procedures are similar to the system used on board IMR’s research vessels. Data is used for management purposes including stock assessment. The FV Brattholm is one of the 20 coastal fishing vessels along the Norwegian coast included within the IMR reference fleet.
