Comparisons with the shipboard CTD casts were done for D0001, R0001, D0003, R0003, D0004, R0004, D0006, R0006, D0007, R0007, D0008, D0009, R0009. The shapes of the profiles generally look similar, however the values are often different (particularly at shallower depths). See attached plots for details. Comparison to the shipboard bottle data is outside the scope of this project.

Deployments 4 and 6:
Incomplete list of attributes for pressure variable 'int_ctd_pressure' (e.g., unit and long name are missing)

By Leila Belabbassi, on 3/12/19

The pressure coordinate (pressure_depth) is an array of all fill values. This variable should contain valid pressure data. There is another variable in the files called in_ctd_pressure that contains what appears to be valid pressure data. This is the case for every FLORTK on every WFP. https://opendap.oceanobservatories.org/thredds/dodsC/ooi/lgarzio@marine.rutgers.edu/20181218T161008-CP04OSPM-WFP01-04-FLORTK000-recovered_wfp-flort_sample/deployment0008_CP04OSPM-WFP01-04-FLORTK000-recovered_wfp-flort_sample_20171110T050202-20180103T093004.nc.ascii?pressure_depth[0:1:1000],int_ctd_pressure[0:1:1000]

Comparison with the shipboard CTD cast was done for D0001 and R0001. For both comparisons, the chl-a recorded from the profiler was higher compared to chl-a from the shipboard CTD cast. Further analysis using the shipboard bottle data should be conducted. This is outside the scope of this project.

By Lori Garzio, on 3/12/19

Comparisons with the shipboard CTD casts were done for D0001 and R0001. The profiles do not match the CTD cast for D0001, and more closely align with the CTD cast for R0001. This pattern is consistent with the profiler's DOFST (data do not match the shipboard CTD cast at deployment and match at recovery). Comparison to the shipboard bottle data is outside the scope of this project.

Comparison with the shipboard CTD cast was done for D0001 and R0001. For D0001, Chl-a recorded by the profiler was generally comparable to the CTD cast, with the exception of the chl-a maximum (~20 - 40 dbar) where the profiler recorded higher chl-a values. For R0001 the chl-a recorded from the profiler was higher. Further analysis using the shipboard bottle data should be conducted. This is outside the scope of this project.

Comparison with the shipboard CTD cast was done for D0001. The available science parameter values and patterns are comparable between the glider and CTD cast, however further analysis using the shipboard bottle data should be conducted. This is outside the scope of this project.

Comparison with the shipboard CTD cast was done for D0001. Salinity from the glider was lower at the surface and higher than salinity from the CTD cast between 100-200 dbar. Further analysis using the shipboard bottle data should be conducted, which is outside the scope of this project.

Comparison with the shipboard CTD cast was done for R0001. Salinity from the glider was higher than salinity from the CTD cast (the CTD cast was done >6km from the glider location). Further analysis using the shipboard bottle data should be conducted, which is outside the scope of this project.

Comparison with the shipboard CTD cast was done for D0001. Chl-a recorded by the glider was generally comparable to the CTD cast, with the exception of the chl-a maximum (~25 - 50 dbar) and at deeper depths (>100 dbar) where the glider recorded higher chl-a values. Further analysis using the shipboard bottle data should be conducted. This is outside the scope of this project.
