3. Depurate data with the following criteria: % good > 90% |error| < 8 cm/s discharge < 100 m3/s ship speed or bottom track speed > 1 m/s
Identify each transect repetition from start and ending times
4. Calibrate Compass Method of Joyce (1989, Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 6, 169-172) and Method of Pollard & Reid (1989) tan =< ubtvsh - vbtush>/<ubtush + vbtvsh> 1 + = [<ush2 + vsh2>/<ubt2+ vbt2>]1/2 ucorr = [1 + ][u cos - v sen ] vcorr = [1 + ][u sen + v cos ] where ubt is the East component of the bottom track velocity ush is the East component of the navigation velocity (from GPS) u is the East component of the current velocity measured by the ADCP ucorr is the corrected East component of velocity < > indicates average throughout one transect repetition Carry out the correction for each transect repetition
5. Generate a regular matrix for u, v, and t corresponding to each transect repetition Identify each transect repetition according to the time of beginning and end of each repetition
Draw each repetition placing the data (u, v, andt) on a regular grid (distance vs. depth) The origin of the matrix (zero distance) is arbitrary (e.g. a point at the coast) Calculate the distance from that origin to the location of each profile in order to generate the regular grid The end result is a group of Nregular grids, whereNis the number of transect repetitions. Each grid point has a time series ofNvalues foru,v, t, andbackscatter.
