Note for Phase 5:
On February 23, 2011, JAMSTEC deployed the
fifth surface buoy JKEO5 at JKEO site (38-05.06' N, 146-26.87' E) during
the R/V Mirai MR11-02 cruise. The design of JKEO5 buoy is a little modified
from JKEO4 buoy with adding sensors of barometric pressure, precipitation,
and two acoustic current meters. MIO of JAMSTEC had set a CO2
measurement system on JKEO5 buoy. The meteorological data has been provided to institutions for
weather forecast and re-analysis numerical model calculation through GTS
since February 24, 2011 (WMO Buoy No. 21210).
The daily average and
hourly meteorological and oceanic data transmitted from JKEO5 buoy system
are publicly available in this web page together with spot values of buoy
location fixed opportunistically by ARGOS and the noon positions derived
from them.
1)
Since 00
UTC on February 26, 2011, the long wave radiation data were wrong.
2)
Since 07
UTC on March 7, 2011, the current meter data (U, V, T) at 125 m depth
indicated sometime zero value.
3)
Since 13
UTC on March 12, 2011, the current meter data (U, V, T)
at 10 m depth indicated sometime zero value.
4)
Since 00
UTC on March 13, 2011, the wind direction data were wrong,
5)
Since 22
UTC on May 7, 2011, the Relative Humidity data were wrong.
6)
On August
16, the sensors for wind, relative humidity and long-wave radiation were
replaced by new ones, and began again transmitting good quality data.
7)
Since
October 14, sea surface salinity data were wrong.
8)
Since
November 15, the wind data are being missed.
9)
Since
November 28, seasurface temperature and salinity
are being missed.
10) Since
February 9, the wind sensor began again transmitting the data of which quality
is uncertain.
