The acoustic backscatter intensity was corrected for spreading and absorption loss, then calibrated with OBS and finally converted to SSC. The results show that there is a good correlation between SSC and backscatter intensity with R value of 0.74. The mean relative error is 22.4%. Then the time span of little particle size variation was also analyzed to exclude the influence of size variation. The correlation coefficient increased to 0.81 and the error decreased to 18.9%. Our results suggest that the PCADP can meet the requirement of other professional instruments to estimate SSC with the errors between 20% and 50%, and can satisfy the need of dynamics study of suspended particles.展开更多

In the open ocean, most of these backscatterers are from the plankton. The sound scatterers descend down to depth at around dawn, their mean speed is 2.9 cm/s, then they ascend up to the surface layer at around dusk with a mean speed of 2.1 cm/s, in the Luzon Strait. The descending speed is faster, which suggests that this zooplankton population may accelerate its downward migration under the action of the gravity. The vertical distribution of a mean volume backscattering strength （MVB- S） in the nighttime has two peaks, which locate near the upper and lower boundary layers of halocline, respectively. However, the backscatterers only aggregate near the surface layer in the daytime. The diel ver- tical migration （DVM） of sound scatterers has several characteristic patterns, it is stronger in summer, but weaker in winter, and the maximum peak occurs in September. The DVM occurrence is synchronous with the seawater temperature increasing at around dawn and dusk, it may affect the ocean mixing and water stratification,展开更多

In conventional method, the quantity of sampling affects the precision of fast Fourier transform （FFT） algorithm, and the algorithm needs a large amount of data to process. A novel frequency estimator.enhanced least mean square （ELMS） algorithm for a single complex sinusoid in complex white Gaussian noise, is proposed in ADCP system. As sampling frequency equals 120 krad/s and the sampling number equals 240. the minimum resolving is 0. 5 krad/s. All variances keep 11.11%. ELMS algorithm needs less data than FFT. And the robust algorithm can estimate the spectrum true value to 99.9% when the signal to noise ratio （SNR） is equal to 0 dB. Experiments prove that the estimation values will diverge much from the ideal when SNR is less than -6 dB.展开更多
声学多普勒流速剖面仪(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler,ADCP)对河流进行流量测量时,ADCP一般采用底跟踪模式(以河底为参考系)获得流速、断面面积,进而获得当前流域的流量,但当河流存在大量走沙(“动底”)情况时,底跟踪速度缺少顺水...声学多普勒流速剖面仪(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler,ADCP)对河流进行流量测量时,ADCP一般采用底跟踪模式(以河底为参考系)获得流速、断面面积,进而获得当前流域的流量,但当河流存在大量走沙(“动底”)情况时,底跟踪速度缺少顺水流分量,致使底跟踪轨迹向上游偏移底跟踪速度偏小,进而导致流量偏小。文章通过对动底原理进行分析、对动底测量方法中的回路法进行研究,提出一种基于GGA的全球定位信息系统(Global Positioning System,GPS)模式下平均动底速度测量方法以及两种动底流量补偿方法,并利用实测数据进行分析验证,结果表明本文提出的动底速度测量方法及动底流量补偿方法对“动底”检测与补偿有显著的效果。展开更多

This model was verified by field observations from buoys and acoustic Doppler profilers (ADPs). The model precisions were validated for both wind-generated waves and open-ocean swells. We present an approach with which to convert ADP-observed current data from near the bottom into the significant wave height. Our approach is deduced from the Fourier transform technique and the linear wave theory. The results illustrate that the location of the bay entrance is important because it allows the swells in the dominant direction to propagate into the bay despite the narrowness of the bay entrance. The wave period T p is also strongly related to the wave direction in the semi-enclosed bay. The Tp is great enough along the entire propagating direction from the bay entrance to the top of the bay, and the largest Tp appears along the north-west coast, which is the end tip of the swells’ propagation.展开更多
