    Abstract: An autonomous underwater base for handling an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) equipped with seismic sensors for recording seismic signals during a marine seismic survey. The autonomous underwater base includes a storing module configured to store the AUV; an inlet/outlet module configured to control access of the AUV to the storing module; and a control module having a positioning system configured to adjust a position of the base in water. The positioning system autonomously drives the storing module from a first position to a second position underwater.
