Bottle dissolved oxygen

The registry carries no authored label for this measurement, so the name above is the canonical series' own description in metadata/measurement_type.csv (variable.csv holds the authored labels, five today).

Heads-up The oxygen_btl_ml_l series from CTD Cast Files carries no flag at this grain, so its values cannot be screened this way.

Measured in

  • CTD Cast Files 141,750 values · 9,018 sampling events · 1993–2025 · 1–3,510 m · 91 grid cells · 126 cruises
    series oxygen_btl_ml_l · source column ox_b no flag at this grain

One row per series, one cell per year, darker with more values — the same strip the front door draws per dataset and a species page draws per taxon. Each row is one dataset's own measurement_type; the label is written once, in the title above.

By depth

Values per depth band at the release grain, one thin bar per series. The bands are the record's own (0-102000+ m).

By month

Values per calendar month, one row per series: CalCOFI's quarterly cruises show as peaks in the months the ships sail.

Range & quality

bounds
The registry declares 0 … 15 ml/L for oxygen_btl_ml_l; a value outside it is dropped at the ingest (drop_out_of_bounds()).
observed
CTD Cast Files oxygen_btl_ml_l 0 · median 4.09 · 14.84 ml/L (5th–95th percentile 0.48–6.092)
flags
CTD Cast Files oxygen_btl_ml_l carries no quality code at the release grain; qual_ok keeps all 141,750.
baseline
A monthly climatology exists for this measurement (the release's climatology table: 1993–2013, dataset × grid cell × calendar month × 10 m bin), so the Explorer can draw anomalies against it rather than values.

The same quantity from another platform or another kind of sample, each its own page and never merged into this one: a dataset's own bottle samples would count that dataset twice, an underway intake is not a cast, and a replicate is not a mean. The reason is the record's (related[].why).
