  • Shipboard profiling measurements in the equatorial Pacific reveal both defining DC properties, albeit over only the cruise periods and only when profiling was rapid enough to resolve the diurnal cycle.

    “Shipboard profiling measurements 76 in the equatorial Pacific (Gregg et al., 1985;Moum & Caldwell, 1985;Moum et al., 1989) 77 reveal both of the defining DC properties, albeit over only the cruise periods (typically 78 a few weeks) and only when profiling was rapid enough to resolve the diurnal cycle.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
