Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Map:  cruise track

Related information:
 Descriptions of SOFeX cruise sampling event types
 
 Brief cruise plan description:
 The R/V MELVILLE sailed several weeks after the R/V REVELLE to arrive in the 
 study area just as the 'patches' were forming in response to iron fertilization. The
 MELVILLE's team planned to make detailed measurements of phytoplankton physiology and 
 rate processes, and to sample daily for phytoplankton growth rates and biomass, soluble 
 and particulate iron and zooplankton biomass. A cruise logbook includes daily entries
 filed by the Chief Scientist aboard each vessel.
 
 A comment on the 'patch_loc' field:
 The 'patch_loc' field is usually one of four abbreviation codes indicating the 
 sampling location relative to the 'iron fertilized patches'; N indicates North Patch, 
 S = South Patch, and whether the location is within or outside the patch area or on
 the edge of the patch.

DMO notes: event log prepared from original 7-Sep-2002 version of SOFeX/Melville 
            Activity Log authored by Mark Brzezinski (UCSB),
            and downloaded 06 February 2006 from MBARI Melville data site;
            added to OCB, 08 February 2006 by Cyndy Chandler (cchandler@whoi.edu)
 
 Modifications to original version by OCB DMO:
 event: 0310935  longitude -66.611  (changed from 666 deg)
 event: 0422313	changed from event 4223113 
 added CTD079 and TEST station info from BTL hdr (had not been entered in event log)
 fixed miscellaneous typos in text strings for person activity and patch_loc fields
 - only changed most obvious typos (very conservation QA pass)
 added: date, time and ev_type 
 
 Cruise dates retrieved from UNOLS
