APP FY 1980 Task I and II Report.
Abstract
This report consists of two major parts. Part (I) is titled, 'Comparison of 'on-board' In-situ Vertical Sound Speed Profiles from the SIMAS and ICAPS Environmental Data Bases with High Quality CTD and STD Data'. The purpose of Part I was to compare the SIMAS and ICAPS sound speed profiles with sound speed profiles from assumed oceanography (CTD or STD observations). Part (2) is titled, 'Evaluation of the SIMAS and ICAPS Environmental Data Bases, Data Handling Procedures, and Merge Methodology'. The purpose of Part (2) was to compare and recommend the data bases, algorithms, merge techniques of either SIMAS or ICAPS. The major causes for the 'significant' differences in the SIMAS vs. ICAPS sound speed comparisons were found to be in the merge methodologies and historical environmental profiles.
