Burrard Inlet Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 600 kHz Deployed 2024-02-06

The RDI Workhorse Monitor ADCP 600 kHz (SN 25471) was deployed on 2024-02-06 at Burrard Inlet. Burrard Inlet is a coastal fjord in southwestern British Columbia. This device is a Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 600 kHz. Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) are hydroacoustic instruments, similar to sonars. ADCPs measure current speed and direction at multiple predetermined depths simultaneously. ADCPs use the Doppler effect of sound waves that are scattered by particles in seawater over a depth range. It was deployed on a fixed platform. Data from this deployment were archived and made available through Ocean Networks Canada's Oceans 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

RDI Workhorse Monitor ADCP 600 kHz（序列号25471）于2024年2月6日部署在布拉德湾（Burrard Inlet）。布拉德湾是加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省西南部的一个沿海峡湾。该设备是一台600 kHz声学多普勒流速剖面仪。声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP）是水声仪器，类似于声呐。ADCP可同时测量多个预设深度的流速和流向。ADCP利用声波的多普勒效应，这些声波在一定深度范围内被海水中的颗粒散射。该设备部署在固定平台上。此次部署的数据已存档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 3.0数字基础设施开放获取，其质量保证和衍生数据产品均遵循既定规范。
