Flag=3 (Suspect): Small spike detected (1-2 degrees C difference), could be real thermocline crossing or minor sensor noise.

Flag=1 (Good): No rollover pattern detected in the data. Flag=3 (Suspect): Pattern resembles possible rollover but could be real environmental change. Flag=4 (Bad): Clear rollover signature detected - sudden large jump that resets to near-zero or sensor minimum, indicating sensor range exceeded or firmware bug. |

Flag=4 (Bad): Temperature is completely constant (zero variance) over many consecutive readings, indicating sensor malfunction, frozen/stuck sensor, or data transmission repeating same value. |

Unlike the spike test which looks at isolated points, this test examines sustained trends. Flag=1 (Good): Temperature change rate is within expected oceanographic bounds (typically less than 1 degree C per 10m depth or per minute). Flag=3 (Suspect): Rate of change is elevated but possible in strong thermoclines or frontal zones. Flag=4 (Bad): Rate of change exceeds physical possibility, indicating sensor drift, calibration issues, or data corruption. |

| attribute | qc_response_time | comment | String | Response Time Test: Checks the sensor response time during profiling (descent and ascent). The rate of pressure change over time is calculated to identify if the sensor is descending or ascending too fast for accurate temperature measurement. Flag=1 (Good): Descent/ascent rate is less than 1 dbar/s, allowing adequate sensor response. Flag=3 (Suspect): Descent/ascent rate is between 1-2 dbar/s, temperature readings may lag behind actual values. Flag=4 (Bad): Descent/ascent rate exceeds 2 dbar/s, sensor cannot respond quickly enough for reliable measurements. |

| attribute | qc_calibration_date | comment | String | Calibration Date Test: Checks if the sensor is being used beyond its recommended calibration period. For ZebraTech/MOANA sensors, calibration is recommended every 2 years. Flag=1 (Good): Sensor is within calibration period. Flag=2 (Not evaluated): Calibration date is unknown or not available. Flag=3 (Suspect): Sensor is more than 2 years past its last calibration date, measurements may have drifted from true values. |

| attribute | qc_flag | comment | String | Overall Quality Flag: The master QC flag representing the worst (highest) flag value from all individual QC tests applied to this data point. This provides a single flag for users who want to filter data without examining each individual test. Flag=1 (Good): All QC tests passed. Flag=3 (Suspect): At least one QC test flagged the data as suspect. Flag=4 (Bad): At least one QC test flagged the data as bad/failed. |
