Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO Processing Notes
Generated from original .xlsx file "AE0908 Event log final.xlsx" contributed by Ken Buesseler

BCO-DMO Edits

- Latitude and longitude values converted from degs, decimal minutes to decimal degrees
- All Longitude values signed negative for West
- "Event #" column entries completed
- "nd" (no data) value inserted in blank cells
- Parameter names modified to conform to BCO-DMO convention

- date reformatted to YYYYMMDD

- time_local reformatted to HHMM
- changed lat/lon of event 09268_1745 from 31/-64, which was not in the research area, to -64.12/31.589 a guesstimate situated between the adjacent event locations. [2020-12-09, NJC]
