加拿大“海王星”海底观测网（NEPTUNECanada）是世界首个深海海底大型联网观测站，位于东太平洋的胡安·德·夫卡板块最北部。它以板块构造运动、海底下的流体、海洋生物与气候、深海生态系统为科学目标，通过海底光缆连接安装在海底的仪器设备，进行实时、连续的观测，并通过光电缆将观测信息传回陆地实验室。此外，NEPTUNECanada还具有崭新的管理运行形式和开放的数据管理模式，非常值得我国开展海底观测网建设时加以借鉴。
NEPTUNE-Canada (North-East Pacific Time-series Undersea Networked Experiments) is the world′s first regional-scale cabled ocean observatory on the northern Juan de Fuca tectonic plate in the north-east Pacific, and offers unprecedented opportunities for all researchers involved in the ocean and earth sciences. Major research themes of NEPTUNE-Canada are focused on earthquakes and plate tectonics, fluid flow in the seabed, marine processes and climate change, and deep-sea ecosystems. NEPTUNE-Canada is characterized by abundant power, high bandwidth communications and hundreds of sensors. This network connects directly Internet and delivers underwater data and imagery in real or near real time via high-speed optical fiber -optic communications.
