Folger Deep Hydrophone Deployed 2015-09-12

The Ocean Sonics icListen HF Hydrophone 1349 was deployed on 2015-09-12 at Folger Deep. Folger Deep is a deep location in Folger Passage near a pillar-like seamount, where productivity and marine mammals are observed. 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1349号于2015年9月12日部署于弗利格深海。弗利格深海位于弗利格水道内，毗邻一座柱状海山，该区域观测到海洋生产力与海洋哺乳动物活动。该设备为水听器（Hydrophone）。水听器是一类搭载换能器（transducer）的声学设备，可将水下声波转换为电信号，且能在数据采集的同时进行处理，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、船舶航行活动与环境背景噪声。该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 3.0数字基础设施对外共享；所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量管控，并提供衍生数据产品。
