This data has converted raw profiles into a gridded data product. Data from the downcast (i.e., from surface to maximum depth) is extracted, and used to grid each variable to pre-defined pressure levels. Quality control flags are used to improve gridded data quality. Bad data is removed during gridding, while suspect data is flagged. Using the pressure-gridded data, corresponding hydrostatic depths are calculated. From these hydrostatic depths, the data is then interpolated onto fixed depth levels.

This dataset has historical data, and adds new data shortly after any additional casts
have been performed. Data quality delay is usually less than 6 hrs.

The Pacific Northwest Environmental Sample Processor Program (PNW ESP) maintains automated and near real-time collection and analysis of water samples for particulate domoic acid approximately thrice weekly. The ESP data, coupled with other Northwest Association of Networked Ocean Observing Systems (NANOOS) and ORHAB datasets, informs timely updates on harmful algal bloom (HAB) events, and aids in understanding HAB dynamics and their impacts on marine resources and coastal communities.

This climatology is based upon data taken from casts taken between the years 2010-2024. The data is averaged at each pressure level for each day of a calendar year. After the data is averaged, a 6-week smoothing filter is run over each data level to provide a smoother data record. Climatological averages and standard deviations are provided. When taking the averages, if there is not sufficient data coverage for a given day (i.e., greater than or equal to 80% of the time frame), then no average is taken, and the climatological value for that day at that pressure level is left blank.

This data has converted raw profiles into a gridded data product. Data from the downcast (i.e., from surface to maximum depth) is extracted, and used to grid each variable to pre-defined pressure levels. Quality control flags are used to improve gridded data quality. Bad data is removed during gridding, while suspect data is flagged. Using the pressure-gridded data, corresponding hydrostatic depths are calculated. From these hydrostatic depths, the data is then interpolated onto fixed depth levels.

This dataset has historical data, and adds new data shortly after any additional casts
have been performed. Data quality delay is usually less than 6 hrs.

This climatology is based upon data taken from casts taken between the years 2010-2024. The data is averaged at each pressure level for each day of a calendar year. After the data is averaged, a 6-week smoothing filter is run over each data level to provide a smoother data record. Climatological averages and standard deviations are provided. When taking the averages, if there is not sufficient data coverage for a given day (i.e., greater than or equal to 80% of the time frame), then no average is taken, and the climatological value for that day at that pressure level is left blank.

This data has converted raw profiles into a gridded data product. Data from the downcast (i.e., from surface to maximum depth) is extracted, and used to grid each variable to pre-defined pressure levels. Quality control flags are used to improve gridded data quality. Bad data is removed during gridding, while suspect data is flagged. Using the pressure-gridded data, corresponding hydrostatic depths are calculated. From these hydrostatic depths, the data is then interpolated onto fixed depth levels.

This dataset has historical data, and adds new data shortly after any additional casts
have been performed. Data quality delay is usually less than 6 hrs.

ORCA3 - Hansville: L3 Climatology - Pressure Gridded - 1.00 dbar


ORCA3 - Hansville: L3 Depth Gridded Data - 0.25 meter

The Northwest Environmental Moorings program maintains
a number of buoys thoughout the Puget Sound region, taking regular profiling
casts with a winched CTD attached to a fixed mooring. These profiles measure
water pressure, water temperature, and conductivity. Depending on the mooring
configuration, additional instruments are added to take further measurements,
which can include dissolved oxygen, nitrate concentrations, fluoroescence
(a proxy measurement for chlorophyll concentrations), and turbidity.

This data has converted raw profiles into a gridded data product. Data from the downcast (i.e., from surface to maximum depth) is extracted, and used to grid each variable to pre-defined pressure levels. Quality control flags are used to improve gridded data quality. Bad data is removed during gridding, while suspect data is flagged. Using the pressure-gridded data, corresponding hydrostatic depths are calculated. From these hydrostatic depths, the data is then interpolated onto fixed depth levels.

This dataset has historical data, and adds new data shortly after any additional casts
have been performed. Data quality delay is usually less than 6 hrs.

This climatology is based upon data taken from casts taken between the years 2010-2024. The data is averaged at each pressure level for each day of a calendar year. After the data is averaged, a 6-week smoothing filter is run over each data level to provide a smoother data record. Climatological averages and standard deviations are provided. When taking the averages, if there is not sufficient data coverage for a given day (i.e., greater than or equal to 80% of the time frame), then no average is taken, and the climatological value for that day at that pressure level is left blank.
