| Column Header | Description |
|---|---|
| WHOI SER# | WHOI Serial Number |
| WMO ID# | World Meteorological Organization Identification Number |
| CPU_CTD | Hardware: Processor and CTD type |
| Comm | Satellite communications system |
| Modem ID # | Satellite communication modem Number |
| Launch Date | Date which float was launched Note: floats with date 1950-01-01 are in pre-deployment test phase |
| Date of Most Recent | Date of most recent profile in the GDAC archive |
| Longevity | Elapsed time from launch to most recent profile |
| Alive | Estimate of whether float is still active based on date of most recent profile. 'Y' if within past 30 days; 'n' if no reports in past 120 days. |
| flt_dict Status | Status of float as listed in internal WHOI database |
| Mean Position | Mean location of all reported profiles |
| WHOI PLOTS | A link to a directory of plots generated from WHOI processing of Real-time Data. The number indicates how many of the real-time plots are available. |
| Profile Qualities | An estimate of float performance based on salinity profile quality flag. A:all data is good; F:all data is bad. Indeterminate grades (B-D) are not displayed. |
| Profiles at GDAC | Number of profiles located in the GDAC archive: R:Real-time data; D:Delayed-Mode data Links to a plot displaying data return as a function of cycle # and pressure Good data is shown in green; bad data is red; Darker shaded data is Real-time; lighter shade is Delayed-mode. |
| Fraction Processed | Fraction of the profiles which are Delayed-Mode |
| Calibration Correction | Indicates whether a salinity correction was or was not applied to Delayed-Mode profiles. Links to a plot of calibration correction (if required) Calibration is expressed as a multiplier to the conductivity. |
| Calibration Plots | Link to a PDF of plots created by the Owens & Wong salinity calibration method. |
