Note on adjusted parameters

Each parameter may be adjusted. Each adjusted parameter has an associated error.
  • PARAM : the original parameter
  • PARAM_ADJUSTED : the adjusted parameter
  • PARAM_ADJUSTED_ERROR : the error on adjusted parameter
Example for adjusted salinity : PSAL, PSAL_ADJUSTED, PSAL_ADJUSTED_ERROR.
