Level 2 data (shear probes)

Level 2 data(shear probes)

Level 2 data are the full resolution, cleaned and despiked parameter from level 1. The initial data set is subdivided in sections and labelled accordingly in the parameter SECTION_NUMBER with integers. Level 2 data is ready for estimating spectra, which will be corrected in wavenumber/frequency domain for the spatial averaging of the shear probe and for vibration-coherent content. In addition to cleaned and despiked level 1 data channels, level 2 data comprises the following additional parameter.

Parameter Name	CF parameter	Standard name	Units of measurement	dimension	required
SECTION_NUMBER	0		dimensionless	[TIME_FAST]	1
FLOWPS	0	flow_past_sensor	m s-1	[TIME_FAST, n_shear_sensors]	1
PSAL	1 (0)	sea_water_practical_salinity water_practical_salinity	dimensionless	TIME_FAST	2
SIG0	1 (0)	sea_water_sigma_theta water_sigma_theta	kg m-3	TIME_FAST	2
