Estevan Sound Hydrophone Deployed 2014-06-24

The Song Meter SM2M Hydrophone SN 681519 was deployed on 2014-06-24 at Estevan Sound. Estevan Sound is located between Campania Island and the Estevan Group archipelago. 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.

序列号为681519的Song Meter SM2M型水听器（Hydrophone）于2014年6月24日部署于埃斯特万湾（Estevan Sound）。埃斯特万湾坐落于坎帕尼亚岛与埃斯特万群岛之间。该设备为水听器，是一类搭载换能器的声学仪器，可将水下声波转换为电信号，并在数据采集过程中同步处理以生成经过校准的波形数据。水听器通常被应用于海洋哺乳动物发声行为、船舶航运噪声以及环境背景噪声的相关研究。本次部署采用固定平台布设，所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，其质量管控与衍生数据产品的生成均遵循既定行业规范。
