Zusammenfassung |
The French program Coriolis, as part of the French operational oceanographic
system, produces the COriolis dataset for Re-Analysis (CORA) on a yearly
basis. This dataset contains in-situ temperature and salinity profiles from
different data types. The latest release CORA3 covers the period 1990 to
2010. Several tests have been developed to ensure a homogeneous quality
control of the dataset and to meet the requirements of the physical ocean
reanalysis activities (assimilation and validation). Improved tests include
some simple tests based on comparison with climatology and a model
background check based on a global ocean reanalysis. Visual quality control
is performed on all suspicious temperature and salinity profiles identified
by the tests, and quality flags are modified in the dataset if necessary. In
addition, improved diagnostic tools have been developed – including global
ocean indicators – which give information on the quality of the CORA3
dataset and its potential applications. CORA3 is available on request
through the MyOcean Service Desk (http://www.myocean.eu/). |
