British Columbia North Coast Drifter Buoy Deployed 2015-03-10

The Institute of Ocean Sciences Drifter SN 179 was deployed on 2015-03-10 on British Columbia North Coast. These are drifter deployments that were deployed at a latitude greater than 50 degrees along the British Columbia coast. This device is a Drifter Buoy. Drifter buoys float on the sea surface and are used to investigate ocean currents and other parameters like temperature and salinity. It was deployed on a mobile 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.

加拿大海洋科学研究所（Institute of Ocean Sciences）SN 179号漂流浮标于2015年3月10日部署于不列颠哥伦比亚省北海岸。本数据集收录的漂流浮标均部署于不列颠哥伦比亚省沿岸、纬度高于50°的海域。该设备为漂流浮标（Drifter Buoy），漂浮于海面，用于观测海流及温度、盐度等海洋环境参数，依托移动平台完成部署。本次部署获取的观测数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 2.0数字基础设施对外共享；所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量控制，并衍生出配套的数据产品。
