Burrard Inlet Hydrophone Deployed 2023-07-25

The Ocean Sonics icListen HF Hydrophone 1354 was deployed on 2023-07-25 at Burrard Inlet. Burrard Inlet is a coastal fjord in southwestern British Columbia. 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.

Ocean Sonics icListen HF型水听器1354于2023年7月25日部署在布拉德湾（Burrard Inlet）。布拉德湾是不列颠哥伦比亚省西南部的沿海峡湾。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，进而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、船舶通航情况以及环境噪声。本次部署将该设备安装于固定平台之上。此次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数字基础设施对外共享，其质量保障流程与衍生数据产品均遵循既定行业规范。
