We would like to let you know about the publication of eight cheat sheets for users of Biogeochemical Argo data, available from the Ocean Best Practices repository (see citation below). The sheets describe data distribution, quality control in the Global Data Acquisition Center and the six core Biogeochemical Argo variables (chlorophyll-a, optical backscatter, pH, Irradiance, oxygen and nitrate) which account for five GOOS EOVs. The cheat sheets aim to guide users by displaying information on data processing, quality control and sensor performance for education purposes. They also provide links to peer-reviewed publications addressing the scientific details. Among the co-authors of the cheat sheets are Kim Baldry (IMAS, Australia) and Marin Cornec (LOV, France) who attended the 2019 IOCCP & BONUS INTEGRAL Training Course on a Suite of Biogeochemical Sensors.
