Plots of pressure checks for each DAC (APEX floats only):

The Argo DM group should refer to the Smoothed Surface Pressure (brown squares  ) on each plot.

Description of how smoothed and calculated surface pressures are derived.

Lists of WMO IDs (APEX only, not sorted by DAC):

Insufficient surface pressure data Negative surface pressure drift

No technical file available Unknown float type

Negative drifting floats - when 80% of the surface pressures are zero.
Insufficient pressure data - when the surface pressure record is more than 60 days shorter than the profile record or the length of the surface pressure is less than half that of the profiles.
