Use of the acoustic positioning system in artificial reef sites

Abstract

Acoustic telemetry technology has been used for monitoring fish in artificial reefs since twenty years. In this study, acoustic positioning system design was developed for telemetry studies in artificial reefs. The performance and effective detection distance of acoustic positioning system were also determined. In this research was carried out between July and September of 2013 in Edremit Bay artificial reefs area, Vemco of acoustic positioning system (VPS; Vemco Positioning System) was used. 6 acoustic receivers (VR2W), 5 synchronization transmitters (Synctag; V13-1L) and 1 control transmitter (Reftag; V13T-1L) were deployed as a pentagonal design. While 89.9% of the signals were captured by at least one receiver, 62.1% of the signals were determined by at least one receiver in a range of 600 m. This study as being the first for Turkey is expected to contribute scientific literature for artificial reef studies.
