Argo Float Measurements — ERDDAP Variable Metadata

One row per ERDDAP variable or variable attribute for the ArgoFloats core profiling-float dataset. The metadata describes the global Argo temperature, salinity, pressure, oxygen, chlorophyll, turbidity, and nitrate profile fields, including quality-control and adjusted-value variables. This table documents 60 variables and 414 metadata rows from the Ifremer ERDDAP information endpoint; it is schema and attribute metadata, not the full pressure-level measurement corpus.
