Vancouver Island Accelerometer Deployed 2021-12-09

The Nanometrics Titan SMA (S/N 001569) was deployed on 2021-12-09 at Vancouver Island. Vancouver Island is located on the west coast of British Columbia. It is enclosed by the inner coastal waters of the Salish Sea and the Pacific Ocean. This device is a Accelerometer. Accelerometers are instruments that measure accelerations. Acceleration can be static such as gravity pulling objects toward the earth, or dynamic as caused by oscillatory movements of the instrument. 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.
