OOCL LE HAVRE(VRGE3), PX11
Observation period : 2019/1/5 to 2019/1/9

This page shows results for the PX11 line based on monitoring by the OOCL LE HAVRE and comparison with the result of assimilation by MOVE-NP.

Overall statistics

Number of profiles	Number of data	AVE	RMSD	MAXD	MIND
16	4413	0.03	0.79	3.51	-3.91

Abbreviations in the table indicate:
AVE: average difference (observation value minus assimilation value)

Results of QC

A total of 16 profiles (520 data, reported by BATHY or TESAC) were received from the OOCL LE HAVRE.
The results of JMA quality control are as follows.

Grounded test

Error data: 0 of 520

Position on land test

On land: 0 of 16

Invalid position: 0 of 16

Regional range test

Error data (low): 0 of 520

Error data (high): 0 of 520

Gradient test

Error data: 0 of 520

For details of JMA's quality control procedures, please refer to this page.

Summary of QC

QC detected no unnatural profiles.
There were differences above 2°C at the depths of less than 300 m. The observation data showed sharper thermocline better than the assimilation data.
