Verification of Data from Supersensitive Detector of Hydrosphere Pressure Variations

Sensors (Basel). 2023 Aug 3;23(15):6915. doi: 10.3390/s23156915.

Abstract

The paper describes experimental research and the results of these studies carried out in various bays of the Primorsky Territory of Russia using a supersensitive detector of hydrosphere pressure variations and a sound velocity profiler with pressure and temperature sensors. In all experiments, instruments, rigidly fixed to each other, were placed on the bottom at a depth of up to 10 m. Comparison of in-situ data from these instruments allowed us to experimentally calculate the coefficient of data conversion of the supersensitive detector of hydrosphere pressure variations when registering sea waves with periods ranging from several seconds to tens of minutes.

Keywords: sea waves; sound velocity profiler with pressure and temperature sensors; supersensitive detector of hydrosphere pressure variations.
