20050107 report
CW-CCW Inclinometry update
Inclinometry had been done as follows :
Datasets El Dirn HST mean leg temperatures Humidity
start start middle end %
20050106 90 cw 22:00 -1.5 -1.6 -1.6 60
20050107 90 ccw 02:00 -1.6 -1.7 -1.6 45
and the use of the CW data in updating the track mode has been described
elsewhere.
The difference between the CW & CCW models resulting
from these new data is shown below:

previously. The CW-CCW difference remains
incredibly stable, as shown in the plot below, which compares this
new difference with the CW-CCW (difference) template used throughout 2004
in the creation of the hybrid track models
we now use.

There were only a few CW,CCW pairs of inclinometry runs taken
during 2004 (
22 March
12 May
02 August
), and the latter two had complications that mitigate against using
them in generating a CW-CCW template, as was done using several
CW,CCW pairs in 2003. It's about time
an updated template was created. Although the new
hybrid model created today
from these data used the 2003 template, future hybrid track models
will use the new CW-CCW difference, augmented (averaged), as time
proceeds, with future CW-CCW differences as they are collected.
