CTD Sea-Bird 9

The Sea-Bird SBE 9 is a type of CTD instrument package. The SBE 9 is the Underwater Unit and is most often combined with the SBE 11 Deck Unit (for real-time readout using conductive wire) when deployed from a research vessel. The combination of the SBE 9 and SBE 11 is called a SBE 911. The SBE 9 uses Sea-Bird's standard modular temperature and conductivity sensors (SBE 3 and SBE 4). The SBE 9 CTD can be configured with auxiliary sensors to measure other parameters including dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, fluorometer, altimeter, etc.). Note that in most cases, it is more accurate to specify SBE 911 than SBE 9 since it is likely a SBE 11 deck unit was used. more information from Sea-Bird Electronics

Processing Description
BCO-DMO Processing Notes - Awk written to reformat original .cnv files contributed by Jamie Pierson to BCO-DMO formatted records - AWK: NGOMEX_2010_CTD_2_BCODMO.awk - Header data for CTD data generated from .cnv files - space delimited reformatted to tab delimited - all records with "#" or "*" ignored - blank lines ignored - BCO-DMO header o/p from routine - Additional Awk written to reformat BCO-DMO formatted records to NGOMEX common format records - AWK: NGOMEX_2010_CTD_2_BCODMO_common_format.awk - O/P data with a set of parameters common to all the years of NGOMEX data - Some data values "nd" (not reported for that year)
