Upper Slope South Accelerometer Deployed 2021-03-27

The Nanometrics TitanEA (S/N 000646) was deployed on 2021-03-27 at Upper Slope South. Upper Slope South is a location within Barkley Canyon, which is located on the upper continental slope. 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 2.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.
