Instrument: Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter

Acronym: ADV
External Identifier: skos:broadMatch: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/384/

Description

ADV is the acronym for acoustic doppler velocimeter. The ADV is a remote-sensing, three-dimensional velocity sensor. Its operation is based on the Doppler shift effect. The sensor can be deployed either as a moored instrument or attached to a still structure near the seabed.
