A benthic lander is an autonomous observational platform that sits on the seabed or benthic zone to record physical, chemical or biological activity.[1]
Benthic landers have deployment durations from a few days (for biological studies) to several years (for physical oceanography studies). In these studies they conduct a variety of underwater measurements, and thus different lander configurations exist to meet differing needs for different measurements.
