Fisheries and Oceans Canada will soon have access to more detailled
data on the state of the Saint-Lawrence River and Gulf.
Five oceanographic buoys are in place since the beginning of the 2000,
but they will be gradually changed to new ones, more
powerful. It's the company Multi-Électronique
from Rimouski that designed and built these buoys that transmit
in real time a whole series of data used by the researchers.
Also in direct time, actually it's already communicating even if we are in test
it's already communicating with our station in our office, and we measure the
usual parameters that we see in the logical weater system: temperature,
humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind et cetera. We also measure marine
parameters, marine current, speed of the current, their
direction, salitiny, density, temperature, water fluorescence. Then
on this one, we added a wave monitor and
experimental. It's a design that we did in the various current
and we going to measure vaguely the height of the wave with
it's frequency. It's sure in environement of the Saint-Lawrence, it's difficult for anyone, for the
buoys like the boat, so they are at the end of their life, the buoys were
in plastic, the plastic started to broke with the sun exposure and
so, well, we wanted to equip new scientific devices
the old buoys were more tiny, so less possibility of device, install
new equipements on it, this one will have, will allow us to
put way more things on it.
