Real-time quality control (qc) of oceanographic data is usually accomplished by testing data points against a variety of conditions to identify the quality of the data. Since 2012, the U.S. Integrated Observing System (U.S IOOS®) Program Office Quality Assurance/Quality Control of Real-Time Oceanographic Data (Qartod) Project has worked with the ocean-observing community both nationally and internationally...
Transgenic mice are widely used for the study of basic visual function and retinal disease, including in psychophysical tests. Mice have a robust pupillary light reflex that controls the amount of light that enters the eye, and the attenuating effects of the pupil must be considered during such tests. Measurement of the size of pupils at various luminance levels requires that mice remain stable over...
A current focus of the Integrated Ocean Observing System's National Glider Data Assembly Center (NGDAC) is on the adoption and implementation of quality control (QC) methods in use by the broader oceanographic community. In 2015, U.S. IOOS, soliciting input from this community, began drafting a glider specific QC manual focusing on temperature and salinity measurements made by autonomous underwater...
The U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS®) Quality Assurance/Quality Control of Real Time Oceanographic Data (QARTOD) project approaches a five-year anniversary in 2017. The highly successful protocol already used to generate quality control manuals for nine specific oceanographic variables continues to serve the project well. It was recently used to create a high frequency radar QC manual,...
The Quality Assurance/Quality Control of Real-Time Oceanographic Data (QARTOD) project was formally adopted in 2012 as a part of the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) Data Management and Communication (DMAC) system. A well-established process has resulted in eight manuals that provide specific quality control tests for a variety of U.S. IOOS core variables of interest. Specifically, the...
Our simple tests and early working experience with the CastAway have shown it to be a versatile tool, useful for quickly and easily obtaining temperature and conductivity profiles in shallow waters. It also seems to meet and may even exceed its stated specifications. We look forward to conducting further tests to perform a more in depth evaluation of the systems technical qualifications.
