Novel metrics based on Biogeochemical Argo data to improve the model uncertainty evaluation of the CMEMS Mediterranean marine ecosystem forecasts.
(2019)
The quality of the upgraded version of the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) biogeochemical operational system of the Mediterranean Sea (MedBFM) is assessed in terms of consistency and forecast skill, ...
BGC-Argo synthetic profile file processing and format on Coriolis GDAC. Version 1.1
(Ifremer, Plouzane, France, 2019)
The current V3.1 Argo netCDF format that produces a pair of core- and b- profile files per cycle, with N_PROF > 1, allows storage of all profile information returned from BGC floats, in a manner that is as close to float ...
Argo User’s Manual Version 3.3, 22 November 2019.
(IFREMER, 2019)
This document is the Argo data user’s manual. It contains the description of the formats and files produced by the Argo Data Assembly Centres (DACs).
A BGC-Argo Guide: Planning, Deployment, Data Handling and Usage.
(2019)
The Biogeochemical-Argo program (BGC-Argo) is a new profiling-float-based, ocean
wide, and distributed ocean monitoring program which is tightly linked to, and has
benefited significantly from, the Argo program. The ...
Biogeochemical Argo Cheat Sheets: Data distribution; Quality control and GDAC; Chlorophyll-a; Optical backscatter; pH; Irradiance; Oxygen; Nitrate.
(Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, Hobart, Australia, 2021)
Eight cheat sheets for users of Biogeochemical Argo data. The sheets describe data distribution, quality control in the Global Data Acquisition Center and the six core Biogeochemical Argo variables (chlorophyll-a, optical ...
SCOR WG 142: Quality Control Procedures for Oxygen and Other Biogeochemical Sensors on Floats and Gliders. Recommendation for oxygen measurements from Argo floats, implementation of in-air-measurement routine to assure highest long-term accuracy.
(Ifremer, Plouzane, France, 2015)
As Argo has entered its second decade and chemical/biological sensor technology is improving constantly, the marine biogeochemistry community is starting to embrace the successful Argo float program. An augmentation of the ...
Processing Argo oxygen data at the DAC level. Version 2.2. Octobre 22nd 2016. [SUPERSEDED by http://dx.doi.org/10.25607/OBP-117]
(IFREMER for Argo Data Management, Villefranche-sur-Mer, France, 2016)
This document does NOT address the issue of oxygen data quality control (either real-time or delayed mode). As a preliminary step towards that goal, this document seeks to ensure that all countries deploying floats equipped ...
SCOR WG 142: Quality Control Procedures for Oxygen and Other Biogeochemical Sensors on Floats and Gliders. Recommendations on the conversion between oxygen quantities for Bio-Argo floats and other autonomous sensor platforms. Version 1.1
(Ifremer, Plouzane, France, 2018)
As Argo has entered its second decade and chemical/biological sensor technology is improving constantly, the marine biogeochemistry community is starting to embrace the successful Argo float program. An augmentation of the ...
Processing Bio-Argo nitrate concentration at the DAC Level. Version 1.1, March 3rd 2018.
(IFREMER for Argo Data Management, Villefranche-sur-Mer, France, 2018)
The only method used to date to measure dissolved nitrate concentration (NITRATE) with sensors mounted on profiling floats is based on the absorption of light at ultraviolet wavelengths by nitrate ion (Johnson and Coletti, ...
Argo Quality Control Manual for dissolved oxygen concentration, Version 1.1. 28th September 2016. [SUPERSEDED by http://dx.doi.org/10.25607/OBP-118]
(IFREMER for Argo-BGC Group, Villefranche-sur-Mer, France, 2016)
This document is the Argo quality control manual for Dissolved oxygen concentration. It describes two levels of quality control:
• The first level is the real-time system that performs a set of agreed automatic checks.
• ...
