correction.factor.do: Compute dissolved oxygen correction factors

In rosalieb/rhobo: Quality control assistant for HOBO data

Compute dissolved oxygen correction factors

Description

Compute dissolved oxygen correction factor pre- and post-deployment by calculating the ratio between the theoritical dissolved oxygen concentration at saturation with the measured oxygen concentration. Requires the atmospheric pressure and the time the calculation can be made for (i.e., when the sensors are taken out their bubble bath, where the oxygen saturation should be at the maximum).

Usage

correction.factor.do(
  filename,
  TC_pre,
  TC_post,
  Pbaro_mbar_init,
  Pbaro_mbar_end,
  n = 4
)

Arguments

filename	path to file we need to calculate the correction factors for. The file is a raw HOBO file, with temperature and oxygen.
TC_pre	datetime of end of the "initialization" calibration (pre-deployment)
TC_post	datetime of end of the "end of deployement" calibration (post-deployment)
Pbaro_mbar_init	Atmospheric pressure in millibars during the "initialization" calibration (pre-deployment)
Pbaro_mbar_end	Atmospheric pressure in millibars during the "end of deployement" calibration (post-deployment)
n	number of observations PRIOR to TC_pre and TC_post used to compute the oxygen mean for computing correction factor. Default to n = 4.
