JCOMM SOT-4 April 2007 Cruise Purpose/Participants Assess the impact of changing two elements of the standard xbt data collection system by comparing the results from six distinct systems with each other and with a higher accuracy Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) system. NOAA/AOML, SIO, CSIRO

JCOMM SOT-4 April 2007 Partitioning XBT Error XBT differs from the CTD due to : A: inaccurate depth measurements B: inaccurate temperature measurements A B Probe fall rate error Thermistor calibration error Signal digitization error Geophysical noise

JCOMM SOT-4 April 2007 Magnitude of Expected Errors Temperature accuracy 0.1 deg C (red curve) Depth (m) Depth accuracy is 2% of the total depth

JCOMM SOT-4 April 2007 XBT/CTD Profiles

JCOMM SOT-4 April 2007 Temperature Error: Isostads Attempt to isolate the temperature error by concentrating on depths where the temperature gradients are minimal After Heimiller et al 1983

JCOMM SOT-4 April 2007 Conclusions Temperature error is within manufacturer specs for all instruments (In the deepest thermostad the mean offset was less than degC for all instruments). There is a detectable bias that is in part due to fall rate error. Correcting the fall rate equation reduces the mean differences well below manufacturer specs and published results in all cases. Two instruments (aomlauto, and devilhand) had mean offsets that were appreciably lower than the other four instruments.
