1 J. Willis altimetry testing for pressure bias:
1. Construct Tmean for 1/2005 – 12/2007, using only floats deployed 1/2004 or later and excluding “bad” and “Bad but correctable” floats, plus floats from the 3 WHOI lists (WHOI/FSI correctable, WHOI/FSI not correctable, WHOI/SBE) and 4 CSIRO lists (insuff. p0, -p0, no tech file, unknown type). 2. Remove the same time mean from temperature and altimetric height data. Essentially this assumes that pressure from PROVOR, SIO SOLO, and APEX positive p0 (corrected), are unbiased. 3. Calculate regression coefficients for SSH vs T’. 4. Use SSH to estimate <T’> for each collection. 5. Convert <Terror> = T’-<T’> to <perror> using climatological dT/dp.

2 Number of profiles APEX neg p0, pre-2004: APEX neg p0, 2004 and later: 54404 APEX pos p0, NO CND: APEX pos p0, SBE: APEX pos p0, FSI: Number of profiles SOLO FSI (corrected): SOLO SBE (corrected): SOLO SBE (non-WHOI): PROVOR SBE: PROVOR FSI:
