Considering the capacity of underwater sensors is always limited

a deployment strategy aiming at uncertain events monitoring by underwater sensor networks is presented.In initial deployment phase

random depth-adjustment method is adopted to make the nodes uniformly distributed

and thus more events can be captured.In the redeployment phase

according to the detected event information

nodes move based on virtual forces method.Meanwhile

through introducing clustering control idea

motion range of each node is limited in its cluster.Thereby the size of reconstruction is reduced

and the connectivity of network is ensured.Simulation results show that the algorithm can meet the coverage performance of networks

while effectively shorten moving distance of nodes.
