NPBY2 - Carr Inlet: L3 Depth Gridded Data - 1.00 meter

The Northwest Environmental Moorings program maintains
a number of buoys thoughout the Puget Sound region, taking regular profiling
casts with a winched CTD attached to a fixed mooring. These profiles measure
water pressure, water temperature, and conductivity. Depending on the mooring
configuration, additional instruments are added to take further measurements,
which can include dissolved oxygen, nitrate concentrations, fluoroescence
(a proxy measurement for chlorophyll concentrations), and turbidity.

This data has converted raw profiles into a gridded data product. Data from the downcast (i.e., from surface to maximum depth) is extracted, and used to grid each variable to pre-defined pressure levels. Quality control flags are used to improve gridded data quality. Bad data is removed during gridding, while suspect data is flagged. Using the pressure-gridded data, corresponding hydrostatic depths are calculated. From these hydrostatic depths, the data is then interpolated onto fixed depth levels.

This dataset has historical data, and adds new data shortly after any additional casts
have been performed. Data quality delay is usually less than 6 hrs.

西北环境锚泊计划于普吉特湾地区维护了一系列浮标，通过固定锚泊使用绞车连接的CTD进行定期的剖面测量。这些剖面测量包括水压、水温以及电导率。根据锚泊配置，还会增加额外的仪器以进行进一步的测量，这可能包括溶解氧、硝酸盐浓度、荧光（作为叶绿素浓度替代指标的测量）以及混浊度。该数据集已将原始剖面数据转换为网格化数据产品。下投（即从水面至最大深度）的数据被提取出来，并用于将每个变量网格化到预先定义的压力水平。质量控制标志被用于提升网格化数据的质量。在网格化过程中，不良数据被移除，而可疑数据则被标记。利用压力网格化数据，相应的静水深度被计算得出。基于这些静水深度，数据随后被插值到固定的深度水平。该数据集包含历史数据，并在任何额外的测量完成后的短时间内添加新的数据。数据质量延迟通常不超过6小时。
