Description

Preserve a chemistry-monitor phase transcription and explicit clock reference.

Gas and aerosol records need explicit species, charge, reference state, concentration and wet/dry bases. A pressure correction to mass concentration differs from a change in mole fraction, and absolute uncertainty differs from a relative percentage. Blank-corrected negative values can expose discrepancies without proving physical concentrations.

Preserve a chemistry-monitor phase transcription and explicit clock reference.

When to use this tool

Use Chem Monitor Clock Phase Reference when you already have monitorId, phaseText, clockReference and need to preserve a chemistry-monitor phase transcription and explicit clock reference.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter monitorId, phaseText, clockReference. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read token. Use the output convention below.

Enter monitorId, phaseText, clockReference using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in token. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1

  "input": {
    "monitorId": "M17",

    "clockReference": "UTC"

}

Limitations and assumptions

  • The result records supplied values without inferring time zone. Sources and asserted relationships are not independently authenticated.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Review the complete sampling, calibration and chemical analysis with verified reference conditions. Check dilution, background, charge and uncertainty definitions before using local terms in an emissions, composition or compliance assessment.
