Engineering Physics Annotation << Back THE CONCEPT OF AN AUTONOMOUS STATION OR ON-LINE MEAS-UREMENT OF SOUND VELOCITY PROFILE IN WATER A.S. A.S. ANTIPOVA-KIRINA, YU.V. DROFA, A.I. SIDORENKO The paper presents the author’s development – an autonomous station for the operational measurement of hydrophysical parameters (ASOI). It is a modular, rapidly deployable system for continuous monitoring of hydrophysical parameters: sound velocity, hydrostatic pressure and ambient temperature. The advantages and features of an autonomous station are considered. The laboratory studies of the component part – the hydrophysical module are described, as well as the results of the work. Keywords: measurements, sound velocity in water, hydrostatic pressure, temperature, hydrophysical module, operational oceanology. DOI: 10.25791/infizik.5.2023.1330 Pp. 55-62.
