Abstract
Ocean covers over 71 percent of the Earth's surface, and people have been pursing to disclose the mystery under the silent ocean surface ever since centuries ago. Nowadays, cabled seafloor observatory provides long-term, real-time, successive, in-situ, wide-coverage, and scalable observatory, leaving an appropriate solution to the ocean observatory problem. In this paper, the Zhejiang University - Zhairuoshan (ZRS) experimental research observatory(ZERO) is studied in a manner of its motivation, background, system overview, and involved components. The construction is completed and several sea-trials have been performed for equipment deployment. The results of retrieved data analysis verify the effectiveness and high value of the ZERO project.
