  • Abstract
    Since FY2000, we have been constructing the Argo network in cooperation with many foreign nations. We are monitoring the situation of about 200 JAMSTEC´s Argo floats early to detect whether they are working well or not. In this article, we present a variety of float performance and examples of abnormal profiles which we have experienced in everyday monitoring of Argo floats.
