Juan de Fuca Strait Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 2 MHz Deployed 2023-10-03

10.34943/74f76c73-36c3-4a8b-bf26-781b46af73c4

The Nortek Aquadopp Profiler A3P9315 AQD14501 was deployed on 2023-10-03 at Juan de Fuca Strait. Juan de Fuca Strait is a large body of water that connects the Salish Sea to the Pacific Ocean. This device is a Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler 2 MHz. Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers are hydroacoustic instruments, similar to sonars. ADCPs measure current speed and direction at multiple predetermined depths simultaneously. ADCPs use the Doppler effect of sound waves that are scattered by particles in seawater over a depth range. 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.
