Abstract
An Above Bottom Fiber (ABF) cable includes an elongated fiber cable having microspheres adhered to the ABF by an adhesive lightly coated to the outer surface of the ABF. The elongated fiber cable is negatively buoyant while the microspheres and adhesives are positively buoyant, resulting in the ABF cable being controllably buoyant in a fluid environment. Anchor lines with optional anchor weights are attached to the fiber cable periodically to prevent the fiber cable from drifting. The microspheres detach slowly from the fiber cable resulting in the ABF cable sinking. All components of the ABF cable are biodegradable.
