Record optimal CPcor value for Deep floats #19

Open cabanesc opened 2 years ago

cabanesc commented 2 years ago

For those who are processing Deep Argo floats in delayed mode, I have created a google sheet where you can record the optimal CPcor value along with the CTD serial number for each of your deep floats. This will help the deep Argo working group track CPcor values to see if there is any batch dependence and possibly re-evaluate the recommended standard CPcor_new values.

An optimized estimate of CPcor can be obtained in delayed-mode by comparing a deep float profile to a reference profile (e.g. deployment CTD casts). A Matlab routine (COMPUTE_new_CPcor_brian.m) is available on https://github.com/ArgoDMQC/DM_CPcor. Please, refer to section 3.10 of the Argo Quality Control manual for more information on Deep Argo delayed mode procedure.

The google sheet is available here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ai1I0gzyHHRv_n6t2M3BMWVBp1F9XO4L2XB1YhBni9U/edit?usp=sharing
