PM(12) Slices thickness of surface CTD measurements (dbar)
Thickness of the CTD slices for shallow depths (algorithm of data reduction).
PM(13) Slices thickness of bottom CTD measurements (dbar)
Thickness of the CTD slices for deep depths (algorithm of data reduction).
PM(14) Multiplying factor for descent DO measurements
This parameter is used to define the time interval between successive DO measurements during
descent according to the following formula:
Acquisition periodicity in seconds = multiplying factor (PM14) x acquisition periodicity of CTD sensor
(PM5) (example: if PM14 = 1, the acquisition periodicity will be equal to 10 seconds, if PM14 = 2,
the acquisition periodicity will be equal to 20 seconds, etc.).
If this parameter is set to 0 seconds, no profile will be carried out during the descent phase.
Nevertheless, due to the ARGO requirements, the first descent profile of the mission is automatically
done even if the parameter was equal to 0.
PM(15) Multiplying factor for drift DO measurements
This parameter is used to define the time interval between successive DO measurements during
PROV-CARBON'stay at the drift depth according to the following formula:
Acquisition periodicity in seconds = multiplying factor (PM15) x acquisition periodicity of CTD sensor
(PM6) (example: if PM15 = 1, the acquisition periodicity will be equal to 10 seconds, etc.).
PM(16) Multiplying factor for ascent DO measurements
This parameter is used to define the time interval between successive DO measurements during
ascent according to the following formula:
Acquisition periodicity in seconds = multiplying factor (PM16) x acquisition periodicity of CTD sensor
(PM7) (example: if PM16 = 1, the acquisition periodicity will be equal to 10 seconds, etc.).
PM(17) Multiplying factor for drift transmittance measurement
This parameter is used to define the time interval between successive transmittance measurements
during PROV-CARBON'stay at the drift depth according to the following formula:
Acquisition periodicity in seconds = multiplying factor (PM17) x acquisition periodicity of CTD sensor
(PM6) (example: if PM17 = 1, the acquisition periodicity will be equal to 10 seconds, etc.).
PM(18) Multiplying factor for ascent transmittance measurements
This parameter is used to define the time interval between successive transmittance measurements
during ascent according to the following formula:
Acquisition periodicity in seconds = multiplying factor (PM18) x acquisition periodicity of CTD sensor
(PM7) (example: if PM18 = 1, the acquisition periodicity will be equal to 10 seconds, etc.).
PM(19) Pressure threshold surface/bottom DO measurements
The isobar that divides shallow depths from deep depths for the purpose of DO data reduction.
PM(20) Slices Thickness of surface DO measurements
Thickness of the DO slices for shallow depths (algorithm of data reduction).
PM(21) Slices Thickness of bottom slices DO measurements
Thickness of the DO slices for deep depths (algorithm of data reduction).
PM(22) Pressure threshold surface/bottom Transmittance measurements
The isobar that divides shallow depths from deep depths for the purpose of transmittance data
reduction.
PM(23) Slices Thickness of surface Transmittance measurements
Thickness of the transmittance slices for shallow depths (algorithm of data reduction).
PM(24) Slices Thickness of bottom slices Transmittance meas.
Thickness of the transmittance slices for deep depths (algorithm of data reduction).
PM(25) Depth of DO Profile Start
Depth to begin DO profiling, if an ascending profile, and the ending depth, if a descend profile. If
PROV-CARBON is drifting at some shallower depth, it will first descend to the profile depth before
starting the ascent profile.
PM(26) Depth of Transmittance Profile Start
Depth to begin transmittance profiling. If PROV-CARBON is drifting at some shallower depth, it will
first descend to the profile depth before starting the ascent profile.
