Abstract

Multi-cruise sampling event log from R/V Oceanus OC404-01 and R/V Weatherbird II WB0409 cruises in the Sargasso Sea in 2004.

 PI:              Dennis McGillicuddy and Nick Bates
 of:              WHOI and BBSR
 dataset:         multi-cruise sampling event log
 dates:           12 June 2004 to 03 July 2004  (20040612-20040703)
 location:        N: 37.934  S: 28.641  W: -68.703  E: -58.754
 project/cruise:  EDDIES 2004 Survey 1 OC404-1 and Transect 1 WB0409
 platform:        R/V OCEANUS and R/V WEATHERBIRD II
 
 
 Methodology: processing notes are available
 
 Change history:
   051213: create merged cruise log from OC404-1 and WB0409 CTD event logs
   060313: 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)
 
 Related information:
   070227: Courtney Ewart (UCSB) contributed a merged CTD map for OC404-1 
           and WB0409 that may help to determine relative CTD station locations  
           (PDF file of 3 maps)
 
 DMO note:  The WB0409 cruise is also called EDDIES Transect #1 or EDT1
     (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).
