Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of ocean observation, in particular to a free-falling type optical profile device.
Background
Today, the application of optical technology in ocean science is continuously developed, and ocean optics has very high value for research of ocean physical processes, biological processes, chemical processes, geological processes and the like, and plays an important role. Measuring and interpreting the optical properties of seawater has become and will still be a challenging research direction for oceanography. The development of marine optics has kept pace with the updates and advances in field measurement technology. The apparent optical properties of the water body are determined by the inherent optical properties of the seawater and the distribution of the radiation fields in the sea, and phytoplankton, suspended sediment and dissolved matters can absorb and/or scatter natural light from a solar system, so that the light field under water and the upward radiance spectrum crossing a water-gas interface can be deeply influenced. The method has the advantages that the optical characteristics such as the water-leaving radiance or the remote sensing reflectivity of the water body with high precision are obtained, and then the concentration parameters of water color elements and related matters of the water body are obtained through inversion of the spectrum, so that the method can serve the monitoring, classification, evaluation, predictive early warning, the study of climate change and the like of the water environment and the water ecology finally.
The apparent optical parameters mainly comprise the water-leaving radiance, the normalized water-leaving radiance, the remote sensing reflectivity and the like, and are basic physical quantities of ocean water color remote sensing and optical performances of water pigment components. Accurate on-site acquisition of apparent optical parameters is beneficial to development of biological optical algorithms and atmospheric correction algorithms, and radiation correction of satellite-borne remote sensors and authenticity verification of data of the satellite-borne remote sensors. In order to obtain the required optical parameters, there are currently above-water surface measurement methods and underwater profile measurement methods.
The currently used underwater profile measurement method has an anchor buoy, and a pair of upward irradiance probes and downward irradiance probes are required to be installed at a fixed distance at the bottom of the buoy. The method needs to measure data of at least three depth points, six radiation probes and three pressure sensors, and has the advantages of high equipment quantity and high cost; ocean optical radiation measurements can only be made less than 10 meters on the surface of a fixed sea area; and the probe is arranged at the bottom of the buoy and is influenced by the shadow of the upper floating body along with the sunlight direction and the random angle rotation of the buoy body under the influence of sea waves, and the later data calibration is difficult.
Another underwater profile measurement method is to mount the probe into a metal frame, and to use a winch to suspend the probe into the water for measurement, the launching frame of this method is too heavy and needs to rely on a hydrowinch; only water can be put in the side of the ship, which is easily affected by shadows and reflection of the ship body and the frame, and high-quality measurement data is difficult to obtain.
