Review of Argo data performance on GTS Anh Tran ADMT10 Sept 30 – Oct 2, 2009
Argo TESAC received on GTS from various data centers • AMMC – Australia • CWOW – Canada • EGRR – Exeter • RKSL – Seoul • KWBC – Washington & Landover • LFPW – Toulouse • RJTD - Japan
Number of Argo TESAC duplicates on the GTS from various bulletin headers
Summary • There are still small number of Argo TESAC duplicates on the GTS. • There aren’t any Argo TESAC with depths greater 2500 db • There is no Argo TESAC with instrument code error. • Volume of BUFR message is still much lower than volume of TESAC • No Bufr messages on GTS from AMMC, EGRR, KWBC, LFPW, and RKSL
Information • BUFR encoded Pressure • In section 1, you need to record your data center code. The information can be found in Common code table document available at: http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/WMOCodes/OperationalCodes.html • Argo BUFR template can be found at: http://www.wmo.ch/pages/prog/www/WMOCodes/TemplateExamples.html • GTS information can be found at: http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/ois/Operational_Information/index_en.html
BUFR template for Temperature and salinity profile observed by sub-surface profiling floats • It is proposed to represent this template by a descriptor 3 15 003. • 3 15 003: • 001087 - WMO Marine observing platform extended identifier • 001085 - Observing platform manufacturers model • 001086 - Observing platform manufacturers serial number • 002036 - Buoy type • 002148 – Data collection and/or location system • 002149 - Type of data buoy • 022055 - Float cycle number • 022056 - Direction of profile • 022067 - Instrument type for water temperature profile measurement • 301011 - Date • 301012 - Time • 301021 - Latitude and longitude (high accuracy) • 008080 - Qualifier for quality class • 033050 - Global GTSPP quality class • 109000 - Delayed replication of 9 descriptors • 031002 – Extended delayed descriptor replication factor • 007065 – Water pressure • 008080 - Qualifier for quality class • 033050 - Global GTSPP quality class • 022045 - Subsurface sea temperature • 008080 - Qualifier for quality class • 033050 - GTSPP quality class • 022064 - Salinity • 008080 - Qualifier for quality class • 033050 - GTSPP quality class
