    • An Algorithm for Classifying Unknown Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) Instruments Based on Existing Metadata. 

      Palmer, Matthew D.; Boyer, Tim; Cowley, Rebecca; Kizu, Shoichi; Reseghetti, Franco; Suzuki, Toru; Thresher, Ann (2018)
      Time-varying biases in expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments have emerged as a key un- certainty in estimates of historical ocean heat content variability and change. One of the challenges in the development of ...
    • A Framework to Quality Control Oceanographic Data. 

      Castelao, Guilherme P. (2020)
      The ocean is an intrinsically challenging environment to collect data, which makes spurious measurements inevitable. Thus, the quality of oceanographic datasets is highly dependent on the ability to identify and remove ...
    • International Quality-Controlled Ocean Database (IQuOD) v0.1: The Temperature Uncertainty Specification. 

      Cowley, Rebecca; Killick, Rachel E.; Boyer, Tim; Reseghetti, Franco; Kizu, Shoichi; Palmer, Matthew D.; Cheng, Lijing; Storto, Andrea; Le Menn, Marc; Simoncelli, Simona; Macdonald, Alison M.; Domingues, Catia M. (2021)
      Ocean temperature observations are crucial for a host of climate research and forecasting activities, such as climate monitoring, ocean reanalysis and state estimation, seasonal-to-decadal forecasts, and ocean forecasting. ...
    • SalaciaML: A Deep Learning Approach for Supporting Ocean Data Quality Control. 

      Mieruch, Sebastian; Demirel, Serdar; Simoncelli, Simona; Schlitzer, Reiner; Seitz, Steffen (2021)
      We present a skillful deep learning algorithm for supporting quality control of ocean temperature measurements, which we name SalaciaML according to Salacia the roman goddess of sea waters. Classical attempts to ...
    • Benchmarking of automatic quality control checks for ocean temperature profiles and recommendations for optimal sets. 

      Good, S.A.; Mills, Bill; Castelao, Guilherme; Cowley, Rebecca; Goni, Gustavo; Gouretski, Viktor; Domingues, Catia M.; Boyer, Tim; Bringas, Francis (2023)
      Millions of in situ ocean temperature profiles have been collected historically using various instrument types with varying sensor accuracy and then assembled into global databases. These are essential to our current ...
    • Australian XBT Quality Control Cookbook Version 2.1. 

      Cowley, Rebecca; Krummel, Lisa (CSIRO, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 2023)
      Expendable Bathythermographs (XBTs) have been used for many years by oceanographers to measure the temperature of the upper ocean. These instruments are simple devices which are designed to be deployed from moving vessels, ...
