ANDRO: An Argo-based deep displacement dataset

a world deep displacement dataset comprising more than 1600 000 argo floats deep displacements, has been produced from the global argo float database (gdac). andro dataset was completed over the period 2000-2009, then was partially but yearly updated since 2010. andro actual contents and format is described in the user guide, which must be carefully read before using andro (andro format is also described in ollitrault m. et al (2013)).one important feature of andro is that the pressures measured during float drifts at depth, and suitably averaged are preserved in andro (see figure 2). to reach this goal, it was necessary to reprocess most of the argo raw data, because of the many different decoding versions (roughly 100) not always applied by the dacs to the displacement data because they were mainly interested in the p,t,s profiles. the result of our work was the production of comprehensive files, named dep (for déplacements in french), containing all the possibly retrievable float data.for detailed information and status of the last released andro product, please visit the dedicated argo france web page: https://www.umr-lops.fr/sno-argo/products/andro-argo-floats-displacements-atlas

一个由全球 Argo 浮标数据库（GDAC）构建的全球 Argo 浮标深位移动数据集，该数据集包含超过 160 万个 Argo 浮标的深位移动数据。ANDRO 数据集的收集工作始于 2000 年至 2009 年间，自 2010 年起，尽管更新不完整，但每年均有所补充。ANDRO 的实际内容和格式在用户指南中有详细描述，使用 ANDRO 之前务必仔细阅读（ANDRO 格式亦在 Ollitrault M. 等人（2013）的研究中有所阐述）。ANDRO 的一个重要特性在于，它保留了浮标在深度漂移期间测量的压力值，并进行了适当的平均处理（详见图 2）。为了实现这一目标，有必要重新处理大部分 Argo 原始数据，因为数据解码版本（大约 100 种）并非总由 DACs 应用到位移数据中，这主要是因为他们主要关注 P、T、S 剖面。我们工作的成果是生成了包含所有可能可检索浮标数据的综合文件，这些文件命名为 DEP（法语中的 déplacements）。有关最新发布的 ANDRO 产品详细信息及状态，请访问 Argo 法国专用网页：https://www.umr-lops.fr/sno-argo/products/andro-argo-floats-displacements-atlas
