AZFP-ice
Calibrated instrument combining AZFP water-column monitoring with IPS ice draft measurement for up to one year.
Description
The AZFP-ice combines the AZFP's monitoring of zooplankton, fish, suspended sediments and bubbles with the Ice Profiling Sonar's ice draft measurement.
Key features
- It collects data continuously at high temporal and spatial resolution for up to one year and deploys on a bottom-mounted frame or taut-line mooring.
- Frequency combinations: 120/200/420/769, 70/120/200/420 or 38/120/200/420 kHz, where 420 kHz is the narrow-beam IPS transducer.
Applications
Year-long deployments in ice-covered waters where water-column biology and ice draft are measured together, on bottom-mounted frames or taut-line moorings.
Specifications
| Frequency combinations | 120, 200, 420 and 769; 70, 120, 200 and 420; 38, 120, 200 and 420 (kHz) |
|---|---|
| Deployment duration | up to one year |
