TODO - To measure variations of zenith dependence of sedimentation/bio-fouling
on the optical modules (OMs) as considered by the KM3NeT consortium in
the deep sea, we have used a grid of photodiodes distributed inside the
glass sphere to measure the light intensity of two light sources located
outside the glass sphere on a fixed position. The method is described
and the data collected during the last three years in depths from 3100 m
down to 5100 m, in the southeast Ionian sea, at sites near Pylos,
Peloponnese, Greece, are discussed. (c) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights
