  abstract = {{T}wo thirds of the surface of our planet are covered by water and are still poorly instrumented, which has prevented the earth science community from addressing numerous key scientific questions. {T}he potential to leverage the existing fiber optic seafloor telecom cables that crisscross the oceans, by using them as dense arrays of seismo-acoustic sensors, remains to be evaluated. {H}ere, we report {D}istributed {A}coustic {S}ensing measurements on a 41.5 km-long telecom cable that is deployed offshore {T}oulon, {F}rance. {O}ur observations demonstrate the capability to monitor with unprecedented details the ocean-solid earth interactions from the coast to the abyssal plain, in addition to regional seismicity (e.g., a magnitude 1.9 micro-earthquake located 100 km away) with signal characteristics comparable to those of a coastal seismic station.},
