 PI:              Nick Bates (Chief Scientist)
 of:              Bermuda Biological Station for Research (BBSR)
 dataset:         Cruise sampling event log
 dates:           02 August 2004 to 11 August 2004 
 location:        N: 31.817  S: 30.331  W: -66.406  E: -64.154
 project/cruise:  EDDIES/WB0413 2004 Transect 2 (EDT2)
 platform:        R/V Weatherbird II

 Methodology: processing notes are available with the full merged version 
 
 Change history:
   051220: create merged cruise log from OC404-4 and WB0413 CTD event logs
   060310: add date and time fields (cchandler, OCB DMO)
   070227: add all sampling events from complete event log created and 
           contributed by Courtney Ewart (UCSB); (added by cchandler)
   071030: extract WB0413 events from merged E1 cruise log
   
 DMO note:  The WB0413 cruise is also called EDDIES Transect #2 or EDT2
     (EDDIES Transects 1 and 2 were done in 2004, 3 and 4 in 2005)
     The dist_EC (distance from eddy center, ADCP eddy center trajectories) 
     was calculated by Valery Kosnyrev (WHOI).
