Cambridge Bay Hydrophone Deployed 2022-09-12

The Ocean Sonics icListen HF Hydrophone 1561 was deployed on 2022-09-12 at Cambridge Bay. Cambridge Bay is located on Victoria Island in the Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut, Canada. This device is a Hydrophone. Hydrophones are devices containing transducers that convert underwater sound waves into electrical signals. They are acoustic instruments that can process data while they are being collected to produce calibrated waveform data. Hydrophones are typically used to study vocalizations of marine mammals, ship traffic and ambient noise. 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.海洋声学公司（Ocean Sonics）的icListen HF型水听器1561于2022年9月12日在剑桥湾（Cambridge Bay）完成部署。剑桥湾地处加拿大努纳武特地区基蒂克美奥特区域的维多利亚岛。该设备为水听器（Hydrophone），水听器是一类搭载换能器（Transducer）的装置，可将水下声波转换为电信号。其作为声学仪器，可在数据采集过程中同步完成处理，以生成经过校准的波形数据。水听器通常被用于研究海洋哺乳动物的发声行为、船舶通航活动以及环境背景噪声。该设备部署于固定平台之上。本次部署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数字基础设施对外开放，其质量保障流程与衍生数据产品均遵循行业既定规范制作。
