Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of marine environment monitoring equipment, in particular to a combined tide well. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, water quality in oceans and coastal areas has been severely impacted. Traditional water quality monitoring methods suffer from long monitoring cycles, high costs, and poor data real-time performance. Tidewells, as common facilities in coastal areas, offer a natural advantage in monitoring water quality.

[0003] Pressure tide gauges determine water levels by measuring water pressure. These devices must be installed underwater and utilize the principle that water pressure is proportional to depth. They are susceptible to fluctuations in water quality and temperature and may require frequent maintenance and calibration.

[0004] Radar tide gauges measure water levels by transmitting electromagnetic waves and receiving their reflected waves. When the electromagnetic waves hit the water surface, they reflect. The radar tide gauge determines the water level by calculating the time difference between the transmitted and reflected waves. Radar tide gauges are relatively simple to install and maintain because they don't require direct contact with the water. However, radar tide gauges are typically suspended directly from the sea using steel cables, which can cause the gauge to shake during use, resulting in inaccurate measurements.

[0005] Existing tide-gauging wells are generally only 0.8m in diameter and are equipped with only one water quality meter or tide level meter, which has a low cost-effectiveness. Utility Model Content
