Baynes Sound Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 600 kHz Deployed 2022-07-21

The RDI Workhorse Sentinel ADCP 600 kHz (SN 24287) was deployed on 2022-07-21 at Baynes Sound. Baynes Sound is located between Denman Island and Vancouver Island. This device is a Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 600 kHz. Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) 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.序列号为24287的RDI Workhorse Sentinel型600kHz声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP，Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler）于2022年7月21日在贝恩斯湾（Baynes Sound）完成部署。贝恩斯湾地处迪纳曼岛与温哥华岛之间。该设备为600kHz声学多普勒流速剖面仪，声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP）是一类类似声呐的水声探测仪器，可同时在多个预设深度处同步测量水流的流速与流向。ADCP利用声波的多普勒效应开展探测：声波经海水内颗粒物散射后，在设定的深度范围内获取信号。本次部署将设备搭载于固定式平台。本批次采集的数据已完成归档，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规范完成质量管控，并生成了标准化衍生数据产品。
