Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for GEOMAR Mooring Data Processing (2026). https://download.pangaea.de/reference/140750/attachments/Mooring_Processing_v2.pdf
This data set contains quality-controlled observations from a GEOMAR mooring deployment. Depending on the mooring configuration, measurements may include pressure, temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and current velocity recorded by oceanographic instruments throughout the deployment period.
During these times instruments equipped with pressure, temperature, conductivity, and oxygen sensors were not yet calibrated in situ immediately before deployment and after recovery by attaching them to the CTD frame during CTD/O2 casts. Hence these sensors could not be calibrated in the way described in the SOP. However, all instruments have a pressure time series associated with them, which was interpolated from available pressure measurements which seemed reasonable. ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.996306"! ** instrument = Label:kpo_0906_01 File:kpo_0906_instr_01.nc Type:Seabird MicroCat 37-SM SN:00056 depth/pressure data was at least partially derived and not directly measured, consult quality flags for details
