The Panama Liquid Jungle Laboratory Underwater Tropical Observatory camera is a submerged, remotely operated, marine science observatory situated at 18 meters depth (about 60 feet) of water.
PLUTO transmits real-time data and underwater images coming from the Pacific coast of Panama via a submarine fiber-optic cable connected to the Liquid Jungle Lab. http://4dgeo.whoi.edu/panama
The observatory consists of sensors that measure salinity, temperature (throughout the water column), pressure (tides), water velocity/direction (ocean currents), chlorophyll, turbidity (water clarity), oxygen, Photosynthetically Available Radiation (amount of light reaching the bottom), and an underwater camera.
