NPBY2 - Carr Inlet: L3 Climatology - Pressure Gridded - 1.00 dbar

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 climatology is based upon data taken from casts taken between the years 2010-2024. The data is averaged at each pressure level for each day of a calendar year. After the data is averaged, a 6-week smoothing filter is run over each data level to provide a smoother data record. Climatological averages and standard deviations are provided. When taking the averages, if there is not sufficient data coverage for a given day (i.e., greater than or equal to 80% of the time frame), then no average is taken, and the climatological value for that day at that pressure level is left blank.

details=This file contains climatological data records for all the sensors at the ORCA buoy at Carr Inlet. Each variable includes a climatological mean and a climatological standard deviation. The climatologies were constructed using data from the years between 2010 and 2023. For more information on how the climatology has been constructed, please refer to the data manual.

西北环境锚泊项目于普吉特湾地区布设了多个浮标，定期使用通过固定锚泊连接的绞车式CTD进行水质剖面测量。这些剖面测量包括水温、水压和电导率。根据锚泊配置的不同，还会添加额外的仪器进行进一步的测量，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）和混浊度。该气候学数据基于2010年至2024年间所采集的剖面数据。数据在每年的每一天的水压级别上进行平均处理。数据平均后，对每个数据级别应用6周的平滑滤波器，以提供更平滑的数据记录。提供气候学平均值和标准差。在计算平均值时，如果某一天的数据覆盖不足（即超过80%的时间段），则不计算平均值，并在该压力级别的那一天留下气候学值为空。
