Stack report – dune2_1

(1) Processing history

Step 1 stack 22 instruments onto 3600s grid
fast instruments (dt<=3600s) subsampled (nearest-neighbour in time), slow instruments interpolated (linear in time)

(2) Instruments (deep-first)

HAB = height above bottom (m).

(3) Hydrography

Pressure, temperature and salinity for the full deployment — one row each on a shared time axis. One colour per instrument (shared across rows, ordered by height) so a line can be followed through all three panels; the single legend spans the union of instruments. Values with QC flag ≥ 3 (suspect/bad) masked to NaN; ADCP excluded from pressure.

show / hide

(4) Velocity

Eastward (U), northward (V) and upward (W) velocity in the ENU frame — one row each on a shared time axis, one colour per instrument (shared across rows, ordered by height) with a single legend over the union of instruments. Values with velocity_flag ≥ 3 masked to NaN; instruments without velocity data omitted.

show / hide

(5) Particle trajectories

Pseudo-Lagrangian particle trajectories integrated from each Aquadopp's east/north velocity. Start at the origin; coloured by time through the deployment.

show / hide

(6) Aquadopp speed profile

Aquadopp current-speed profile: median and interquartile range of speed against height above bottom across the deployment.

show / hide

(7) T-S diagram

Left: scatter coloured by pressure. Middle: 2-D count heatmap. Right (when oxygen data present): scatter coloured by O₂ saturation (%). Bad (flag 4) and missing (flag 9) excluded; interpolated pressure (flag 8) retained.

show / hide

(8) Current rose diagrams

Magnetic declination applied: -13.97°

Direction the current flows toward (oceanographic convention, 0°=N). Speed coloured light→dark blue (slow→fast). QC-flagged samples excluded. Title shows serial number and height above bottom (m).

show / hide

(9) Aquadopp tilt (|pitch| / |roll| / pressure estimate)

|pitch| / |roll| / pressure-estimate tilt per Aquadopp, sharing a y-axis. Horizontal lines mark the suspect and fail thresholds from the file attributes.

show / hide

(10) Adjacent instrument spacing

Distribution of pressure differences between adjacent instrument pairs (pairs < 2 dbar apart excluded as co-located).

show / hide

(11) Clock alignment check

One temperature trace per instrument, zoomed to the first and last 30 min of the deployment, to check clock alignment across instruments.
