What are sea buoys used for
Marine buoys are a new high-tech monitoring method that can continuously and continuously monitor parameters such as water quality, meteorology, and ecology in the sea area. Even in harsh environmental conditions where other monitoring methods cannot work, marine buoys can continue to operate. Maritime buoys are widely used in various dredging projects, sand pumping projects, port expansion, channel dredging, channel warning, and aquaculture industries.
Ocean buoy indicators indicate the direction, boundaries, and obstacles of navigation, including river crossing markers, coastal markers, navigation markers, transition markers, head and tail markers, side markers, left and right navigation markers, position markers, flood markers, and bridge and culvert markers. It is a manual sign that helps ships navigate, locate, and indicate obstacles and warnings. The distribution of navigation aids shall, in accordance with the specific navigation conditions of rivers, lakes and reservoirs, clearly and simply point out the safe, economic and convenient navigation channels for ships.
What is the use of buoys at sea
A sea buoy is a type of navigation buoy that floats on the water surface and is fixed to the bottom with anchor chains. The function of sea buoys is very extensive. Their purpose is to mark the range of waterways, indicate shoals or obstacles that endanger navigation. They are unmanned automatic ocean observation stations, fixed in designated sea areas, and fluctuate with the waves, just like the navigation buoys on both sides of the waterway. Although sea buoys are not prominent in the sea, their role cannot be ignored. They can continue for a long time in any harsh environment, Work day and night non-stop, measure and report more than 10 hydrological and meteorological elements at regular intervals every day.
Marine buoys are unmanned, highly automated, and advanced marine meteorological and hydrological observation and telemetry equipment that can collect necessary marine hydrological and meteorological data for long-term marine scientific research, offshore oil development, port construction, and construction in accordance with prescribed requirements.
The working principle of ocean buoys
Ocean buoys are usually divided into two parts: above water and underwater. The above water part is equipped with various meteorological element sensors, which measure meteorological elements such as wind speed, direction, temperature, pressure, and temperature; There are various hydrological sensors in the underwater part, which measure ocean hydrological elements such as waves, ocean currents, tide levels, sea surface temperature, and salinity. The signals collected by various sensors are automatically processed by the instrument and sent out by the transmitter at a fixed time. The ground receiving station processes the received signal to obtain the information people need. By mastering these materials, it can bring great convenience to people's production and life. For example, knowing the direction of the ocean current, one should try to follow the current as much as possible during navigation; Knowing the storm area, one can avoid detours during navigation; Knowing the abnormal rise of tide level can prevent unexpected events in a timely manner.
The above is an introduction to the role of maritime buoys, hoping to be useful to everyone.
