Definition
A device used to make ultrasonic measurements of flow velocities. ADVs are smaller than ADCPs and are used both for field and laboratory measurements. Contrary to ADCPs the measuring beams concentrate on a single spot (i.e. a very small measurement volume), thus immediately delivering results for this particular spot.
