摘要:

2023年12月,崂山实验室“深海Argo区域观测网建设”项目在菲律宾海盆布放了1台国产4 000 m级HM4000型剖面浮标(世界气象组织编号为2902895),该浮标携带了加拿大RBR公司生产的RBRargo3 deep 6k CTD传感器(以下简称RBR CTD)。布放后发现,该浮标返回的盐度观测数据与船载CTD结果以及气候态盐度值相比存在系统性的偏差。为了校正浮标盐度数据,使用现场盐度计分析结果和船载CTD测量的盐度,计算了RBR CTD电导率的偏移率,进而对浮标盐度剖面进行了校正。经检验,校正后的结果与邻近浮标和气候态盐度数据基本一致。随着我国 “深海Argo区域观测网建设”项目的启动实施,越来越多的国产深海Argo浮标将被布放,相比观测水深为0~2 000 m范围内的核心Argo(Core-Argo,仅观测海水温度和盐度),深海Argo(Deep-Argo)需要更高的观测精度才能分辨出深海更小的变化。当前,Deep-Argo使用的CTD传感器仍存在技术问题,一些浮标和传感器在存储、运输和使用过程中难免会存在不当操作,导致观测数据特别是盐度数据存在较大误差。为此,本文提出了一种使用现场比测资料对深海Argo浮标观测资料进行校正的方法,可为我国深海Argo区域观测网资料质量控制提供重要的技术支撑。

Abstract:

In December 2023, the project “Construction of Regional Deep-Argo Observation Network” sponsored by Laoshan Laboratory deployed a domestically-produced HM4000 profiling float with the maximum profiling depth of 4 000 m (the World Meteorological Organization number is 2902895) in the Philippine Sea, which was equipped with an RBRargo3 deep 6k Temperature-Conductivity-Depth (CTD) sensor produced by RBR, Canada. It was found that the salinity observation data reported by the float exhibited a systematic deviation compared to the shipboard CTD and climatological salinity. In order to correct the salinity data of the float, the conductivity slope of the RBR CTD was calculated by using bottle salinity measured by the Autosal 8400B salinometer and salinity measurements from the shipboard CTD cast. Salinity profiles of the float were then calibrated, and the calibrated salinity was found to be basically consistent with the nearby float and the climatological data. With the implementation of the “Construction of Regional Deep-Argo Observation Network” project, an increasing number of domestically-produced deep Argo floats will be deployed. Compared to the Core Argo floats that measure temperature and salinity profiles in the upper 2 000 m of the ocean, Deep-Argo requires higher accuracy to resolve smaller variations in deep waters. Currently, technical problems are still found in deep CTD sensors, and improper handling and operation during storage, transportation, and usage of some floats and sensors are inevitable, resulting in large errors in the observations, especially the salinity data. Therefore, this study proposes a method of calibrating Deep-Argo floats’ observation data using in-situ shipboard CTD cast, which can provide essential technical support for quality control of the Deep-Argo floats.

Key words: Deep-Argo, HM4000 profiling float, RBR CTD sensor, Autosal 8400B salinometer, shipboard SBE 911 CTD, conductivity drift, salinity calibration
