摘要: Abstract Satellite altimeter measurements are used to check the quality of Argo profiling floats time series. The method compares collocated sea level anomalies from and dynamic height calculated temperature salinity profiles for each float Different kinds (sensor drift, bias, spikes, etc.) have been identified on some real-time but also delayed-mode floats. About 4% should probably not be until they carefully checked reprocessed by principal investigators (PIs). appears very complementary existing control checks performed in real or delayed mode. It could quantify impact adjustments made mode pressure, temperature, fields.
