Description
We need to update the current QC for gfsv17: profiles that "look OK" but have probably been wrongly geo-located in the original file or have a constant bias throughout the entire profile are not being QC'ed out. This results in very large, unphysical, localized increments, see example below.
QC update
Addition of a profile backround check:
Remove the entire profile if the RMSE of O-B for the profile is greater than a specific threashold.
# Reject profiles with large differences from background

# Reject obs where MetaData/depth > GeoVaLs/sea_floor_depth_below_sea_surface + maxvalue
