I've finally had a chance to look at the Indian Ocean (I1W) data.

We noted in our cruise report that Niskin 7 at Stn 910 was an obvious leaker and that the nutrients were flagged as 4.  I'm pretty sure that's the 3793 dbar bottle.

I don't know why the nutrients aren't flagged, as my notes say they were.

Re the odd deep nutrients at Stn 859: The original at-sea calculation of those nutrients was made incorrectly, using the wrong values for the standard concentrations. They were recalculated post-cruise and look as though they will fit within the envelopes of the property plots from the other Red Sea stations.  Again, I don't know why the corrected version wasn't part of the final data set.

I will dig out or create a digital version of stn 859 and send it to you, hopefully before the end of the week.

As noted by Sharon Escher, sta. 882 was missing from the ctd stations. I converted the oxygen to umol/kg on sta 882, added it to the ctd .zip file, made new exchange and netcdf files and put all files online.

The U.S. WOCE Indian Ocean Survey consisted of 9 cruises covering the period December 1,1994 to January 22,1996.All of the cruises used the R/V Knorr operated by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. A total of 1244 hydrographic stations were occupied with radiocarbon sampling on 366 stations.

Merged DELC13 decimal-2-data into bottle file. Merged new CTDPRS, CTDTMP, CTDSAL, CTDOXY, THETA, SALNTY & OXYGEN from WHOI into bottle file. Changed some quality flags per WHOI notes and results of Java Ocean Atlas check. Notes file sent to Jerry with details. 


Notes on I01W merging     Apr 11, 2003      D. Muus

1. Merged DELC13 from:

    /usr/export/html-public/data/onetime/indian/i01/i01w/original/
     20020401.095117_GERLACH_I01W/20020401.095117_GERLACH_I01W_whpo_i01w.txt

   into current web bottle file (20020815WHPOSIOSA)
   to replace 1 decimal place data with 2 decimal place DELC13 data.

2. Changed all Helium and Tritium quality flag "1"s associated with missing data to "1"s.

3. Replaced all BTNNBR, CTDSAL & CTDOXY quality flags with new flags received March 24, 2003, from Jane Dunworth, WHOI

4. Changed flag "1"s for Station 863 to "4"s per WHOI message:

From jdunworth@whoi.edu Tue Mar 25 06:21:13 2003 "found this is in the cruise summary info. it seems like this cruise had serious problems with calibration and instrumentation issues. you might want to change the ctdsal & ctdoxy flags to 3 (questionable) or 4 (bad) for sta 863.

STATION 863  Made the internally recording (IR) backup CTD, CTD 1338, the primary data for the station instead of CTD 9. CTD9's oxygen and salinity in the down profile were bad due to noisy pressure requiring heavy interpolation.  ICTD 1338 data was used to make the down 2-db file.  CTD 9's info was left with the bottle file. There were problems makeing the bottle file from the IR CTD.  Note, there are different up and down cals!, one for CTD1338, the other for CTD9."

Following note also found in Documentation: "Station 863: CTD9 with ICTD1338 in Memory mode. After Test station for CTD9, CTD 9 opened and found dessicant packs to be caught btw boards, causing components on board to short out. Thought was fixed, but everything dropped out twice during this station. -USE ICTD1338 DATA FOR THIS STATION"

5. Merged CTDPRS, CTDTMP, CTDSAL, CTDOXY, THETA, SALNTY, & OXYGEN from: Jane Dunworth, WHOI, email of March 24, 2004.

    email data can be found in:

     /usr/export/html-public/data/onetime/indian/i01/i01w/original/

      dunworth.email030324.i01w.btldata

Prior to merging, ITS-68 CTDTMP and THETA were changed to ITS-90 using ITS-90 = 0.99976(ITS-68) and CTDOXY and OXYGEN changed from ml/l to UMOL/KG using cvuwoce on minerva.ucsd.edu.


6. Station 863 Sample 36 was deleted because CTDTMP & CTDSAL = 0 at 16 N

7. 2001/01/23 ANFUSO, S.   note in Data History.
  "NUTRIENTS: Data was originally submitted in uM/L units, PI recalculated and resubmitted in uM/kg units. Also, original submission of nitrate data was actually nitrate nitrite. This error has been corrected in current data submission."

Nutrients unchanged this version since only small changes in CTD pressure, salinity and temperature for samples with nutrient values.

8. Following CTDSAL and CTDOXY values differ from bottle values. QUALT1 was 2.
    Sta/Ca/Smp  CTDPRS    Bottle - CTD            Changed QUALT2 to:
			  Salt     Oxygen
    890/1/1    2195.7db   No Btl S,No Btl o2          CTDOXY 4
	 /2    2195.2     No CTD S,No CTD o2

    902/1/4    1799.4     1.25     ok                 CTDSAL 4

No changes were made to quality flags of other parameters for these samples but conversions from /liter to /kg are suspect.

9. Made new exchange file for Bottle data.

10. Checked new bottle file with Java Ocean Atlas.

*See HE/TR entry.

KEY, ROBERT would like the following action(s) taken on the data: Merge Data, Place Data Online, Update Parameters

Any additional notes are: I've included the C14 from the French occupation of I6S.  All files are same format.  Tool does not accept mput syntax

Moved data from /usr/export/html-public/cgi/SUBMIT/INCOMING20020401.103636_GERLACH_I01W to /usr/export/html-public/data/onetime/indian/i01/i01w/original/20020401.103636_GERLACH_I01W. Directory contains a readme from the data submission page and a file called 20020401.103636_GERLACH_I01W_i01w_desc.txt which lists the individual flags for the replicate values, it is a detailed listing of those stataions which have c13 flags.

I have placed the updated dqed CFC data sent by Wisegarver in the following directory
.../onetime/indian/i01/i01w/original/ 2001.09.18_I01W_CFC_DQE_WISEGARVER

included are data file and submission form README file. Data are in need of merging at this time.

The .sea file with the results of Arnold Mantyla's data quality evaluation and QUALT2 flags has been put online. 
Corrected a couple of error in the .sum file and put new file online.
Jerry Kappa has been sent the DQ report.

CTD has been converted to exchange using the new code and put online.

I took another look at the exchange format for I 01E. The nutrient conversion back to UM/L appear to be OK, I had misread one station. However, the O2 data, listed as ML/L, should carry two more decimal places. The conversion is going from a 4 significant firure to only 2.

What is supposed to be listed under the "depth" column? Since it appears with each sample and is next to the CTD pressure, I would assume that the sample depth would be listed there. However, what is showing up is the bottom sounding for every sample.

At 08:55 AM 8/23/01 -0700, James H. Swift wrote: WHPO - Would someone kindly create a new bottle exchange file for I01E (316N145_12). There is a clear problem with the oxygens and nutrients in the present exchange file on line for this cruise (i01e_hy1.csv) and I want to see if it goes away when we create a new file.

Bottle exchange file was put online.

Merged updated TCARBN and ALKALI data and quality codes into hyd file. Merged over preliminary version of data. Updated hyd file is on-line. Merging notes are in original subdir 2000.06.19_I01W_CARB_KOZYR/00_Readme.

*See DELHE3/NEON entry.

Bottle: (tritum, helium, delhe3, neon, triter, helier, delher, neoner)

Merged TRITUM, TRITER, HELIUM, HELIER, DELHE3, DELHER, NEON, NEONER data into hyd file. Updated hyd file is on-line.

NOTE:  The following NEON data (sta/cst/samp) had a -9.000 data value, with a -0.045NMOL/KG NEONER value.  This doesn't make sense.  Assumed samples were never drawn, NEONER value changed to -9.000.

866/1/28, 26, 24, 22, 21; 873/1/9; 874/1/2

Also, the following TRITUM and TRITIER had duplicate data values submitted, only merged first value into hyd file:  880/1/9;885/1/1;945/1/1;951/1/21

Files tritfrmt.txt, savetrit.dat,  witrit.dat, heformat.txt and wihe.dat  were moved from Jenkins' original data directory.  witrit.dat contians tritium data for the indian cruises.  wihe.dat contains helium data for indian cruises.  These files contain original data that was later re-formatted by S. Anderson.  Files received by Jenkins on October 17th, 2000.

I have put the Jenkins tritium data into WOCE format.  There were no quality codes so I set the TRITUM to 2. 

*Files for Tritium Data: 

        WOCE Indian Ocean = WITrit.dat   Contains all legs
        WOCE Pacific P10 = WP10Trit.dat
        WOCE Pacific P13 = WP13Trit.dat
        WOCE Pacific P14c = WP14cTrit.dat
        WOCE Pacific P18 = WP18Trit.dat
        WOCE Pacific P19 = WP19Trit.dat
        WOCE Pacific P21 = WP21Trit.dat
        SAVE South Atlnt = SAVETrit.dat

*Column Layout as follows:  Station, Cast, Bottle, Pressure, Tritium, ErrTritium

*Units as follows:  Tritium and ErrTritium in T.U.

*All data are unfortunately still preliminary until we have completed the laboratory intercomparision and intercalibration that is still underway.

Moved file i01hy.txt from incoming file in /usr/export/. Website indicated i01e was equivalent to i01w.  File stamp is WHPOSIO19980928LDT. Online stamp is WHPOSI019980204SA. This indicates file data to be more recent than online version.  Path is i01/i01e/original/1998.09.28_HY_LDT.

pdf version pending

Since the splitting of I01 into east and west lines, the ctd files for this cruise have remained as one zip file containing all stations for both east and west lines.  As per Lynne Talley, I have split the east stations from the total zip file (stations 962-1014 according to the sumfile) and rezipped them. They have replaced the original file which was renamed to indicate it contains all stations and moved to the original directory.

I just uploaded the revised CFC data for WOCE I1.  It should be made public once it is merged.  I have also included a report to be merged (eventually) into the metadata files.

I need to know from you which parts of I01 are public.  CTD?  All bottle params?  Zafer Top sent a note making his He/Tr public, but we should have some sort of blanket statement from you.

Bottle Params to consider: Salts, OXY, NUTS, CO2-related params, CFCs

I have just placed the final, corrected data for WOCE Indian Ocean Leg I1 on your server.  All of the calibration documention is in the directory DOC.

As you can see, the WOCE I1 dataset has some problems with the CTD data in that it was necessary to use Falmouth Scientific CTD's for the cruise (all of the WOCE Neil Brown WHOI CTD's were not working when the ship left Muscat, Oman.

This is Ashwanth Srinivasan from Noble Gas Isotope Lab , RSMAS, Univ of Miami. We have submitted four files, i7he.txt, i9he.txt and i1he.txt and readme.he to the incoming directory at your ftp site. These files contain tritium, helium and neon data from WOCE I7N, I9N and I1 cruises. These data are preliminary and proprietary and the format is explained in the readme.he file.  In case of problems or questions please email to one of the following addresses.

Following changes ftp'd to WHPO.  Replace older HYD file with this one (OK'd by PI):
1. Combine i01e and i01w into one line: i01
2. Change expocode from 31ka45 to 316N145
3. Bottle flag for station 1005, 1, 23 at 349.7 dbar is 3 and salinity is 4.
It looks like all nutrients are bad here as well.  I suggest that they all be flagged 4.  Oxygen doesn't look out of place, but maybe for consistency, it should be flagged 3.
