Integrating Data Infrastructure with Ocean Ecosystems: A Calibrated Approach

The seafloor is not a passive highway for data; it is a living system that demands calibration. This submission recognizes that integrating infrastructure with ocean ecosystems requires more than laying cables, it requires measuring impact with empirical rigor. We support this approach because it treats the ocean as a partner, not a conduit. Related coverage, such as our piece on integrated subsea cables across the Indian Ocean, reinforces the stakes. Understanding drives protection, and this work gets that sequence right.
