Definition | A cable tethered instrument designed to measure and record the Water Column moving through its field of view from the seabed during long, unattended, deployments. It transmits an acoustic pulse of programmable duration, then listens for the echo from targets in the water column. It returns a value of the acoustic intensity for every 12.5 cm. It can be deployed up to 150 m beneath the surface, looking upward, or from the surface looking downward. |
