Notes regarding oxygen calibration, Pandora Cruise A. Ganachaud, 2013. Non-public.

 


Sensors

Calibration sheets: main primary: 1506 (pre calibration 5-may-2012; same with Tcor); main secondary: 0514 (pre calibration 28-oct-2011; post calibration 15-dec-2012; same with Tcor)

Primary and secondary sensors: " Généralement le circuit primaire est meilleur. Sur le secondaire il y a souvent du bruit en conductivité. Donc je prendrais systématiquement le primaire. cas particulier, le cast 6801, que Jacques a récupéré après inversion des circuits, à vérifier même si les capteurs sont maintenant dans le bon ordre. Et toujours les problèmes en surface pour 1301,1302, 3903,3904.

Unit deck setting: "le scan average dans le deck unit était réglé à 24, j'ai corrigé ensuite (mis à 1, cad tout les cycles)" Conséquence: trous dans les données de quelques mètres

Bottle depths and leak detection (all-stat-depth.xlsx)

Residuals before interpolation:

  1. With upcasts: depth deviation; oxygen deviation
  2. Without upcasts: depth deviation; oxygen deviation

1: all stats 1-82 regular LS 0.03 (1.64) (fig) See linear structure with station after 12
2: all stats 1-82 linear stat 0.02 (1.13) (fig) Much better but remaining struct stat 1-10; removed more outliers
3: stats 12-82 linear stat 0.02 (1.05) (fig) Very nice fit. Deviation at stat 60 below 4000m
4: stats 1-10 linear stat -0.095 (1.011) (fig) Ok but bias looks large
5: stats 1-10 regular LS 0.003 (1.17) (fig) Much better without slope
6: only deep reaching (>3000m) stats regular LS 0.02 (1.20) (fig)

Still 3.5 umol/kg at 5500m/ stat 60

Not sufficient. G. Johnson recommends using fit 3; then fit on station 60, only one coefficient (poor): experience 9

7: try wswitch to 1 (weight on deep measurements)

** DOES NOT CONVERGE **

linear station dependent bias and weight on deep measurements give a good residual

0.023 (1.056) (fig) little difference with experience 3 (see in situ T-S-O2)
14: stats 12-82; same as exp 12 but ws=1 because saw about 1umol/kg deep bias

Bias analysis

  • T-S-O2 for experiments 11 and 12 (fig) (but since 11 does not converge…)
  • T-S-O2 for experiments 15 and 12 (fig)

Secondary circuit

Used oxygen from secondary sensor

T/S from primary

Residuals before interpolation:

  1. With upcasts: depth deviation; oxygen deviation: similar to primary circuit (linear slope 12-82)

0.001 (1.23) (fig(bydepth)

Optimal as for circuit 1

*** FINAL CHOICE FOR CALIBRATION *** 

Experiment 12. Did not re-calibrate stats 1-10.

Choice between Primary and Secondary

  • Use secondary O2 only for profiles 4201 4202 4204 4205 4207 4208 4209 6001. **WATCH OUT**  for calibration purpose we used TS from primary, but we use T and S from secondary: (they remain flagged at 3)
  • Comparison primary/secondary for 6001 (compare_primary_secondary_station60.m)
  • All profiles with only those from secondary: Theta-O2 for all; isolating secondary
