British Columbia North Coast Drifter Buoy Deployed 2016-09-25

The Institute of Ocean Sciences Drifter SN 538 was deployed on 2016-09-25 on British Columbia North Coast. These are drifter deployments that were deployed at a latitude greater than 50 degrees along the British Columbia coast. This device is a Drifter Buoy. Drifter buoys float on the sea surface and are used to investigate ocean currents and other parameters like temperature and salinity. It was deployed on a mobile 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.

加拿大海洋科学研究所（Institute of Ocean Sciences）编号为SN 538的漂流浮标于2016年9月25日在不列颠哥伦比亚省北海岸完成布放。本次数据集涵盖的所有漂流浮标布放作业均沿不列颠哥伦比亚省海岸开展，布放海域的纬度均高于50度。该设备为漂流浮标（Drifter Buoy），漂浮于海面之上，用于探测海流以及温度、盐度等多项海洋环境参数。该浮标搭载于移动平台完成布放。本次布放任务获取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 2.0数字基础设施对外共享；所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量保障工作，并衍生出标准化数据产品。
