Barkley Canyon Tiltmeter Deployed 2021-02-10

The RBRconcerto Tilt Meter ACC.BPR 63056 was deployed on 2021-02-10 at Barkley Canyon. Barkley Canyon is a submarine canyon located on the continental shelf and slope break. Features include exposed gas hydrates and their associated ecosystems. Accumulation and movement of sediment, upwelling, and plankton blooms are studied in this area. This device is a Tiltmeter. A tiltmeter is a sensitive inclinometer designed to measure very small changes from the vertical level, either on the ground or in structures. 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.

RBRconcerto型倾斜仪ACC.BPR 63056于2021年2月10日部署于巴克利峡谷（Barkley Canyon）。巴克利峡谷是一处位于大陆架与陆坡折带的海底峡谷，区域内分布有裸露的天然气水合物及其伴生生态系统，沉积物堆积与运移、上升流及浮游植物水华均为该区域的重点研究对象。本装置为倾斜仪（Tilt Meter）：倾斜仪是一种高灵敏度测斜仪，用于测量地面或构筑物相对于垂直基准的极微小角度变化。该仪器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 2.0数字基础设施对外共享，其质量管控与衍生数据产品的生成均遵循行业既定规范。
