Strait of Georgia East Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 150 kHz Deployed 2023-03-17

The RDI Workhorse Quartermaster ADCP 150 kHz (SN 8497) was deployed on 2023-03-17 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 150 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 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

RDI Workhorse Quartermaster型150 kHz声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler，以下简称ADCP，序列号SN 8497）于2023年3月17日部署于乔治亚海峡东部海域。乔治亚海峡东部指乔治亚海峡的东部区域。该设备为150 kHz规格的声学多普勒流速剖面仪。声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP）是一类类似声呐的水声探测仪器，可同时在多个预设深度层面测量水流的流速与流向。ADCP利用声波被海水中颗粒物散射产生的多普勒效应，在指定深度范围内完成流速与流向的测量。本次部署依托固定式平台开展。本次部署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 3.0数字基础设施对外开放共享，其数据质量保障流程与衍生数据产品均遵循既定行业规范。
