用於DFO拉布拉多海疆區研究的子C自主相機解決方案

  • SubC Imaging’s subsea cameras and equipment have been used to produce sound science to ensure healthy and sustainable aquatic ecosystems for many years

  • Bamboo coral, an important environmental indicator in terms of long-term client change studies, were observed during the deployment

  • With SubC equipment aiding sound science, researchers were able to start to fill some important LSFA data gaps on the characterization of mesopelagic fish, demersal fish and benthic community ecosystems

SubC 成像公司與加拿大漁業和海洋部 (DFO) 合作的歷史悠久。子委員會和DFO的主要目標都側重於保護我們的水域和支援海洋和漁業部門的經濟增長。多年來,SubC 成像的海底攝像機和設備一直用於製作健全的科學,以確保健康和可持續的水生生態系統。

SubC 的 自主海底攝像機解決方案 用於 DFO 對拉布拉多海疆區 (LSFA) 的生物物理和生態表徵。LSFA的現有數據證實,該地區支援遷徙海洋哺乳動物和魚類全年使用。許多居民是保護關注的物種,而另一些居民對人為干擾非常敏感。在這項研究時,現有數據非常有限。

Cutting Edge Equipment from SubC Imaging

SubC’s autonomous subsea camera solution consisted of a camera recording HD video for time lapse and high-resolution digital stills using LEDs mounted on a bait trap. The camera was programmable and the solution was powered by a battery system drawing very little power. This allowed for long deployments at sea to capture more data without the need for real-time control. Large amounts of data needed to be collected as the area was poorly understood and important ecosystem characterizations had to be observed before conservation objectives could be recommended.

借助 SubC 設備輔助聲音科學,研究人員能夠開始填補一些重要的 LSFA 資料空白,這些資料空白用於中底魚、底魚和底底魚類社區生態系統的表徵。

在 DFO 拍攝的影片中,您可以看到脆星 (Ophiurida) 和蝦 (Caridea) 在深度超過 2,000 公尺的存在。有2000多種脆星,其中一半以上是在深水中發現的,超過200米深。

Observing Climate Change Indicators

在部署誘餌相機陷阱時觀察到的還有竹珊瑚。這些珊瑚是長期客戶變化研究的重要環境指標,因為一些標本已被發現超過4000年的歷史。深海珊瑚物種也極易在海底進行底拖網捕撈。 

觀察到的其他物種包括磷蝦、紅蝦、狼魚和哈格魚。

Cost Effective Solutions

Conducting research in the harsh Labrador environment can be difficult. When working with a limited budget, it's vital to have the right equipment that will capture the best data possible. SubC Imaging’s autonomous camera solution reduces interface complexity and allows for the elimination of expensive cabling and infrastructure as it can be deployed on a simple wire winch. SubC’s 4K and HD subsea cameras supply power while the scripting feature allows the camera to operate independently without requiring an additional computer (or person) to send commands on a schedule.
