Salish Sea Hydrophone Deployed 2017-03-20

The Ocean Sonics icListen HF Hydrophone 1376 was deployed on 2017-03-20 at Salish Sea. The Salish Sea includes a network of channels and coastal waters near Vancouver Island. The Salish Sea includes the Strait of Georgia, Strait of Juan de Fuca, Saanich Inlet and Puget Sound. This device is a Hydrophone. Hydrophones are devices containing transducers that convert underwater sound waves into electrical signals. They are acoustic instruments that can process data while they are being collected to produce calibrated waveform data. Hydrophones are typically used to study vocalizations of marine mammals, ship traffic and ambient noise. It was deployed on a fixed platform. Data from this deployment were archived and made available through Ocean Networks Canada's Oceans 2.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

Ocean Sonics icListen HF 水听器（Hydrophone）1376 于2017年3月20日部署于萨利什海（Salish Sea）。萨利什海涵盖温哥华岛周边的水道与近岸海域网络，包含乔治亚海峡（Strait of Georgia）、胡安·德富卡海峡（Strait of Juan de Fuca）、萨尼奇湾（Saanich Inlet）以及普吉特海湾（Puget Sound）。该设备即为水听器，其搭载换能器（transducer），可将水下声波转换为电信号，属于可在数据采集过程中实时处理数据以生成经校准的波形数据的声学仪器。水听器通常用于研究海洋哺乳动物的发声、船舶交通状况以及环境噪声。该设备部署于固定平台之上，采集所得数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 2.0数字基础设施对外提供，其质量保证与衍生数据产品均遵循既定实践。
