Description

The science party maintained a digital event log, recording all instrument deployments and significant events during the KN210-04 cruise.

Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

The event log was created using the Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) event log application (ELOG). The log includes a record of all scientific sampling events from the cruise. In addition to event identification numbers unique for the cruise, the scientific sampling event log includes date and time (GMT), position (latitude and longitude), station and cast identifier as appropriate to the sampling event, sampling instrument name (e.g. CTD911, planktonNetTow, McLanePump), name of person responsible for the sampling event, and a comment field to record additional information. See more information about the R2R event log: http://www.rvdata.us/about/eventlog

Data Processing Description

Dataset Processing Description

Date/time and lat/lon corrections, including those indicated in the comment column, have been made:
- First pass at date/time & position corrections made using script by C. Sellers;
- Additional date/time corrections made by E. Kujawinski, K. Longnecker, & C. Breier;
- Additional position corrections made by S. Rauch.

BCO-DMO made the following modifications to the data display:
- parameter names were converted to lowercase and/or to standard BCO-DMO naming conventions;
- values of 'NaN', 'N/A', and blanks were replaced with 'nd' to indicate 'no data;
- commas in the comment field were replaced with semi-colons;
- the original dateTimeUTC field was separated into two columns: date_utc and time_utc.
