Glacier Bay oceanography 2020 data quality evaluations (OC_M)
Murdoch CC. 2021. Glacier Bay oceanography 2020 data quality evaluations (OC_M). NPS Southeast Alaska I&M Network, Juneau, Alaska.
At the end of each survey year, a review is done to determine if post-season calibration data (OC_G) indicate that sensor drift over the cruise year is significant. The original log sheet images (OC_H) are also reviewed for annotations regarding data exceptions. The raw and processed vertical profile data plots are reviewed both separately and jointly for irregular instrument readings. The Project Leader flags questionable and unusable casts for the year using the data quality report spreadsheets. Inoperable individual sensors encountered during a cast are also noted on the sheets. The Data Manager, after validating the spreadsheet forms, publishes the forms to the Data Store and then updates appropriate columns in the cumulative database (OC_D) to reflect quality levels of all observations.
