Description

Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Hydrographic data collected during casts with a CTD-rosette system (SBE11plus equipped with a fluorometer, transmissometer, oxygen sensor, and a PAR sensor. Individual sensor details and calibration info provided in the "en614-ProfileNotes" supplemental document.

Data Processing Description

Dataset Processing Description

Data were processed using SeaSave v 7.26.7.107.

BCO-DMO Processing:
- modified parameter names (replaced ".", "-", and "/" with underscores; removed parentheses);
- renamed the second "DepSM" column to "DepSM2";
- replaced blank/empty cells with "nd" (no data);
- removed the blank rows interspersed throughout the file;
- in site names, replaced spaces with underscores and removed commas;
- saved the "en614-ProfileNotes" Excel sheet as a PDF to attach to metadata as a supplemental doc.

Instruments

CTD Sea-Bird SBE 911plus

Supplied Name: Sea-Bird SBE 9, 11plus V 5.2

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: CTD Sea-Bird SBE 911plus

Acronym: CTD SBE 911plus

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0058/

Generic Description:

The Sea-Bird SBE 911 plus is a type of CTD instrument package for continuous measurement of conductivity, temperature and pressure. The SBE 911 plus includes the SBE 9plus Underwater Unit and the SBE 11plus Deck Unit (for real-time readout using conductive wire) for deployment from a vessel. The combination of the SBE 9 plus and SBE 11 plus is called a SBE 911 plus. The SBE 9 plus uses Sea-Bird's standard modular temperature and conductivity sensors (SBE 3 plus and SBE 4). The SBE 9 plus CTD can be configured with up to eight auxiliary sensors to measure other parameters including dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, fluorescence, light (PAR), light transmission, etc.). more information from Sea-Bird Electronics
