R/V Falkor Moving Vessel Profiler Deployed 2013-08-17

The Moving Vessel Profiler SS (S/N 11068) was deployed on 2013-08-17 on R/V Falkor. The Research Vessel Falkor is the flagship vessel of the Schmidt Ocean Institute. This device is a Moving Vessel Profiler. Moving Vessel Profilers (MVP) are instruments that collect data sets from deep and shallow water. The MVP system includes a winch, deployment system and a device called a free fall fish. The winch and deployment system allows the free fall fish to be released from a vessel while it is moving. Once deployed, the free fall fish is an autonomous device that carries a variety of sensors and collects data as it swims around the water column. 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.

运动船舶剖面仪SS（序列号S/N 11068）于2013年8月17日搭载在佛尔克号研究船（R/V Falkor）上完成布放。佛尔克号研究船是施密特海洋研究所（Schmidt Ocean Institute）的旗舰科考船。该设备即为运动船舶剖面仪（Moving Vessel Profiler，MVP）。运动船舶剖面仪（MVP）是一类可从深水与浅水环境采集数据集的科考仪器。该MVP系统包含绞车、布放系统以及一款名为“自由落体舱（free fall fish）”的设备。其绞车与布放系统可支持在船舶航行过程中投放该自由落体舱。布放完成后，该自由落体舱为自主式设备，搭载多类传感器，可在水层中巡游并采集数据。该设备布设于移动平台之上。本次布放所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数字基础设施对外开放；所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量管控，并生成了符合规范的衍生数据产品。
