DARK allows the visualization of the time series of minima of an argo float. It is meant to help the Delayed Mode operator decide on a method for the correction of bias or drift by introducing DARK_OFFSET.
By default DARK plots the minima and their median, as well as the offset that was applied in the automatic computation of CHLA_ADJUSTED. But it also allows the user to plot offsets computed by a running median on minima, by DMMC, or by a Kalman filter on minima (experimental). All computed offsets can be extracted in text files that can directly be used in DMMC.
- Clone the repository where you want it (
$ git clone https://github.com/qjutard/dark_offset_chla) - You will need to have R installed as well as the libraries called in main.R
- Get the latest profile index and greylist if necessary
- Adapt pathway definitions in pathways.R, DARK.sh, and main.R
- Create an alias in your .bashrc or .bash_aliases (
alias DARK="~/path/to/repository/DARK.sh") - Go to the working directory (where you want outputs to be written)
- READ THE HELP (
$ DARK -h) - Updates can then be obtained with
$ git pull - Feel free to contact me directly for help and to open issues for bugs or desired features
