Methods & Sampling

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 (UTC), position (latitude and longitude), station and samples collected, activity (CTD cast), bottom depth, and a comment field to record additional information.

Data Processing Description

DMO Notes:

-Parameter names were converted to lowercase and/or to standard BCO-DMO naming conventions
-removed "consecutive sample number" "latitude (mm.mmm)" "Longitude (dd)" "Latitude (DD)" "Longitude (mm.mmm)" columns. "Consecutive Sample Number" was removed at the request of the Kim Thamatrakoln, PI.
-replaced all "," with ";"
-reformatted all column names, replacing spaces with "_" and changing names to comply with BCO-DMO standards.
-added "nd" to blank fields, and fields with "~" or "?" after clarifying their meaning with PI.
