2000-06-06 Gould, Martin O18/O16/Iodine Submitted data and doc
I have got some delta oxygen-18 and iodine species data from the WOCE A11 cruise (Discovery 199).

I have attached all the files to this email. The iodine data are very few and so probably very easy to merge manually perhaps. So I've attached these as BODC received them (12256_12288.xls and methods_iodine.doc).

I have created a WHPO format file for the oxygen-18 data (DI199.O18.TXT). I have also included the original file (a11_o18.txt) that we received from the data originators incase there were bottle misfires (as I've said before, we average these).  I know your database currently has individual bottles, they were supplied by the data originator's.
1998-10-12 Anderson, Sarilee NO2+NO3 Data are OK see note to S. Sutherland
Re the A11 NO3+NO2 quality flags.   Only parameters with  ******* under them have quality flags and in this case NO3+NO2 is the 7th parameter so underscored and the corresponding quality flag isn't always 9.  
1998-08-13 Sutherland, Stew NO2+NO3 Update Needed see note:
 The original quality code for every bottle
for Nitrate+Nitrite is 9, while there are hundreds of non -9.0 data
points.
1998-04-25 Smythe-Wright, Denise CFCs Data are Public problems with CFC-12, see note
Thank you for your enquiry about A11 CFC data.  I have no objection to Ricardo Locarnini having the data and for them to be made fully public. However I must stress that the CFC-12 data required considerable reworking due to contamination and so I cannot say that I am fully confident with the CFC-12 data set.  Also as a result of some work I have been doing lately I fear that and error in one of my original spreadsheets may have been perpetuated into the final data set sent to you.  This means that SOME but not all of the deep CFC-12 data are askew by a factor of up to 1.43.  The error seems have originated in converting from the SIO 86 to 93 scale but rather than using the factor for CFC-12 the value for CFC-113 has sneaked in instead. Because the values are so small the error may have been overlooked. I think it is just a case of a wrong cell identifier in a spreadsheet and so hopefully it can be cleared up soon.

1997-09-16 Saunders, Peter M. SUM/BTL new files sent to Saunders see note
ftp'd a tar format archive with a README file that should
explain all of the particulars, except for the fact that there is another
tarfile within that contains CTD stations ---> 12292, 12293, 12294  12306
12308 and 12317.
1997-09-12 Saunders, Peter M. SUM/BTL Corrections needed on SAC webs full note

          
1997-08-13 Saunders, Peter M. SUM sum file on web is incomplete 35 stas. missing from SUM file on SAC

          
1997-08-13 Saunders, Peter M. SUM Data Update Needed 12303-12337 (35 stations) absent.
I have been looking on the WHPSAC for my A11 data.  Bernard Barnier discovered that the A11.SUM file was incomplete.  He is quite correct.  Stations 12247-12302 are present but 12303-12337 (35 stations) are absent.

So between you both Rplease come up with a complete SUM file.  If you cant find one Brian King will resupply but then you will have to check it I suppose.

The ctd files are all present, as are all the bottle observations and the csl file looks complete, which is reassuring.

But Kai the A11 data is not seen on the one time map as being at the SAC - after  SUM file fixed perhaps you would change this.
