Queen Charlotte Sound Hydrophone Deployed 2016-07-10

The Song Meter SM2M Hydrophone SN 681517 was deployed on 2016-07-10 at Queen Charlotte Sound. Queen Charlotte Sound is a sound of the Pacific Ocean in British Columbia, between Vancouver Island and Haida Gwaii. 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 2.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

型号为SM2M的Song Meter水听器（hydrophone），序列号681517，于2016年7月10日部署在夏洛特皇后湾（Queen Charlotte Sound）。夏洛特皇后湾是不列颠哥伦比亚省境内太平洋海域的一处海湾，坐落于温哥华岛与海达瓜依（Haida Gwaii）之间。该设备为水听器，其搭载换能器（transducer），可将水下声波转换为电信号。作为声学仪器，其可在数据采集过程中同步处理数据，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、船舶航运噪声以及环境背景噪声。本次部署的设备搭载于固定式观测平台之上。此次部署产生的数据集已完成归档，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，其质量保障流程与衍生数据产品均遵循行业既定规范。
