Cycle quality | During this cycle mispointing levels are quite low and slightly impact data quality. 2.28% of ocean data is rejected during the validation process because of out of threshold off nadir, leading to an overall percentage of 21.72% of rejected data once all criteria applied. |
Missing data | Cycle 171 has no missing pass but, Pass 906 is partially missing (21.85% of missing measurements on this track but none are over ocean) due to the station keeping maneuver that occurred the 26/05/2023. |
