Cambridge Bay Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 1200 kHz Deployed 2016-08-25

The RDI Workhorse Monitor ADCP 1200 kHz (9111) was deployed on 2016-08-25 at Cambridge Bay. Cambridge Bay is located on Victoria Island in the Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut, Canada. This device is a Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 1200 kHz. Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers 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型1200 kHz声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler，ADCP，型号9111）于2016年8月25日部署在加拿大努纳武特地区基蒂克美奥特地区维多利亚岛上的剑桥湾。该设备为1200 kHz声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP），此类仪器属于水声仪器，工作原理与声呐相仿。ADCP可同时在多个预设深度点位同步测量海流的流速与流向，其借助声波在海水悬浮颗粒物上散射产生的多普勒效应，在指定深度范围内完成海流参数监测。本次部署将该仪器搭载于固定观测平台之上。本次采集的相关数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 3.0数字基础设施对外共享；所有数据均遵循既定行业规范完成质量管控，并生成配套衍生数据产品。
