Details of Deepwater ADCP + ADV deployments

Headline: Sub-facility/Station_name, latest position
Column headings:
i: counter (if boldface, click to read about issues with the processing or file metadata)
iz: z position (for multi-instrument moorings), inferred from
zc: the central depth of the sensed zone
z: instrument_nominal_depth. h: site_nominal_depth
dz: difference of instrument depth (according to the pressure data) from nominal:- (0 5 50 95 100) percentile values.
lat, lon: position
start time: first good data
dt av shift:sampling interval, averaging interval, time attribute seconds_to_middle_of_measurement, added here to TIME
length: time interval between: 1) start and end dates in the filename, 2) start and end of the time record in the file (time_all), and 3) deployment and retrieval detected in the pressure record (time_good)
dt_start: [min(time_all) min(time_good)]-t_start_filename,
dt_end: [max(time_good) max(time_all)]-t_end_filename,
min-T-max: temperature range,
mag: correction for magnetic declination
Tidal analysis (summary): Major axis amplitude a(cm/s), direction θ(°T) and Greenwich phase g(°) for the constituents listed, analysed for each deployment and for the whole record (using the depth-average data from instruments with iz=1).
cor err: time correction applied (by us) to the data, and time error (re-)estimated from lagged u_tr = rms(obs-tide). u_tr(lag) before and after corrections.
TBv Toolbox version that produced the netcdf file.
deployment name: station-time-ADCP_type-depth (click to see time-series plot of u,v, etc).
