British Columbia South Coast Drifter Buoy Deployed 2017-08-16

The Institute of Ocean Sciences Drifter SN 729 was deployed on 2017-08-16 on British Columbia South Coast. These are drifter deployments that were deployed at a latitude less than 50 degrees along the British Columbia coast. This device is a Drifter Buoy. Drifter buoys float on the sea surface and are used to investigate ocean currents and other parameters like temperature and salinity. It was deployed on a mobile 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.

海洋科学研究所（Institute of Ocean Sciences）编号SN 729的漂流浮标，于2017年8月16日布放于不列颠哥伦比亚省（British Columbia）南海岸。本数据集涵盖的漂流浮标布放任务，均为沿不列颠哥伦比亚省海岸、纬度低于50度的海域开展的布放作业。该设备为漂流浮标（Drifter Buoy），漂浮于海面，用于探测海流及温度、盐度等海洋参数。该浮标布置于移动平台之上。本次布放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 3.0数字基础设施对外提供；所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量管控，并衍生出配套的数据产品。
