Add a general alert string to the CONFIG_MISSION_COMMENT of ‘TOD_SAMPLING_ALERT’, for any mission that results in unbalanced diurnal sampling

mscanderbeg commented 3 months ago

PIs and DACs are asked to work together to identify missions that result in unbalanced diurnal sampling (e.g. Time of Day firmware is on and actively targeting a single local surfacing time, OCR extra noon-time surfacing, etc.)

To alert users, DACs are asked to add a general alert string to the CONFIG_MISSION_COMMENT of ‘TOD_SAMPLING_ALERT’ so users can filter out such profiles by this comment.

DACs, please indicate the status of implementation at your DAC next to your name below. For example, DAC name: not started or in progress and hope to complete by XX, finished, etc.

See John's presentation from ADMT-24 for guidance. See also the ADMT-24 meeting report (item 16.2).

BODC needs to investigate to which floats this will apply to
