Abstract

Obtaining real-time data from the deep ocean remains a major challenge in marine observation. This study presents a deep-sea mooring system that integrates inductive telemetry (EUM6000 modules) with Tiantong satellite communication to achieve real-time, long-term hydrological monitoring in the South China Sea. The system incorporated 25 sensors, including CTDs and ADCPs, and was deployed at a depth of 1247 m. Over one year of continuous operation, it maintained a data reception rate > 90%, with a latency of
