Comment:


This will dictate the data required at the final processing level, where we store the estimated dissipation estimates [math]\displaystyle{ \varepsilon }[/math] along with quality metrics.

Dimensions

Short name Standard name Dimensions Comments
TIME time TIME Units in Days since 1950-01-01T00:00:00Z. Provide a bounds attribute to designate the variable containing the limits of each segment (see CF-compliant example).
R_DIST distance_from_sensor_along_beams R_DIST Along-beam bin centre distance (in meters) from the transducer
N_BEAM unique_identifier_for_each_beam N_BEAM Array of 1 to number of beams (3 to 5 typically)
Optional dimensions for 5-beam ADCP
R_DIST5 distance_from_sensor_along_beam_5 R_DIST5 Along-beam bin centre distance (in meters) from the transducer for the 5th vertical beam
