Strait of Georgia Central Hydrophone Deployed 2011-05-12

The IOS3 Hydrophone Array 01 was deployed on 2011-05-12 at Strait of Georgia Central. Strait of Georgia Central is a central area in the Strait of Georgia. 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.

IOS3水听器阵列01号于2011年5月12日部署于乔治亚海峡中部海域。乔治亚海峡中部海域即乔治亚海峡的中心区域。该设备为水听器（Hydrophone），是一类搭载换能器的装置，可将水下声波转换为电信号。作为声学仪器，水听器能够在数据采集过程中同步完成处理，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、船舶交通活动以及环境噪声。本次部署的设备搭载于固定平台之上，此次任务获取的数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 2.0数字基础设施对外公开，其质量管控与衍生数据产品均遵循既定行业规范。
