The MARIABOX “MARIne environmental in situ Assessment and monitoring tool Box” is an autonomous marine monitoring device for man made and natural pollutants under development in the frame of a project funded by the European Commission (Contract 614088). The device it is conceived for installation on free floating devices, buoys, ships, or to be used as a portable instrument. It will work fully autonomously, collecting the marine water sample, analysing it, storing the data and transmitting them via satellite link. The main, high-level user requirements for the MARIABOX system are for analytical sensitivity below the thresholds for pollutants set by the European Commission, so to enable early warning, to be portable and capable of repeating measurements over at least six months without any servicing so to diminish the costs of logistics when deployed at sea
