Strait of Georgia East Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 300 kHz Deployed 2011-10-03

The RDI Workhorse Monitor ADCP 300 kHz (SN 2940) was deployed on 2011-10-03 at Strait of Georgia East. Strait of Georgia East refers to an eastern area of the Strait of Georgia. This device is a Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 300 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 2.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

RDI Workhorse Monitor型300千赫兹声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler，ADCP，序列号SN 2940）于2011年10月3日部署于乔治亚海峡东区。乔治亚海峡东区指乔治亚海峡的东部海域。该设备为300千赫兹声学多普勒流速剖面仪。声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler，ADCP）是一类类似声呐的水声探测仪器。ADCP可同时在多个预设深度层同步测量水流的流速与流向，其工作原理为利用声波在指定深度范围内被海水中颗粒物散射后产生的多普勒效应。本设备部署于固定式平台之上。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数字基础设施对外提供，所有数据均遵循既定规范完成质量管控，并生成了符合标准的衍生数据产品。
