Changes
* Change PCO2 units from PPM@EQ to UATM. This choice requires some justification:
* PPM is a fractional unit, so this would be XCO2 if actually in PPM
* Data history indicate that FCO2 was merged in at some point prior, but the name was changed from FCO2 to PCO2 and the @EQ values were chosen over the @20c values.
* PCO2 or FCO2 are useless when the temperature of the equilibrator are not known or the data are not reported/corrected to some standard temperature
* A data restoration/rescue task exists because of the above.
* Rename NEONER_FLAG_W to NEON_FLAG_W (the flag goes on the primary variable, not the uncertainty)
* Change CFC113 flag from 4 to 5 at STN 264, cast 1, sample 2658

Notes on a08 changes.
March 13, 2003
A08, 06MT28-1
While checking the Data History I noted an entry by Millard about salinity quality code changes. I found a file with his notes, A08WSDQE.TXT in ...original/2000.07.05_A08_DQE_HYD.
I checked the online file and these corrections had not been made. While making the salinity changes I noted that there were also a lot of incorrect quality flags for oxygen.
The problem was not just that values for salinity and oxygen of -9.0 had quality flags of 2, but also that there were legitimate values for these parameters that had quality flags of 9.
On the stations where these problems occurred there was always a -9.0 value with a Q flag of 2 (or 4) and a legitimate value with a Q flag of 9 at approximately the same pressure. So I used the Q flag for the -9.0 value for the Q flag for the legitimate value.
I made lists of these inconsistencies, copied the QUALT1 flags to the QUALT2 flags and CHANGED ONLY the QUALT2 flags.

Total carbon (TCARBN) and FCO2 were merged into online bottle file. Previous file was renamed and moved to original directory. Exchange file was created.
Merging CO2 parameters into A08 bottle file:
CO2 bottle file obtained from: A08/original/2002_CO2_CFC_KOZYR_KLEIN_DATA/CARBON/a08.dat
WOCE bottle file obtained from parent A08 directory a08hy.txt
Copied a08.dat to current directory and renamed a08_cpy.dat edited out text at top of file.
Used mrgsea program to merge TCARBN and FCO2. Two measurements for FCO2 were taken (FCO2@EQTMP and FCO2@20C). FCO2@EQTMP was used because it had corresponding flag whereas FCO2@20C did not.
Mrgsea did not change the carbon files missing values from -999.9 to -9.0 as indicated it would, so these missing values were edited to correspond to WOCE standards.
Added date/name stamp.
Ran wocecvt on file with no errors (pressures are inverted though).
Final output file (output3_edt.txt) was renamed a08hy.txt and copied to parent directory. Previous online file was renamed and moved to original directory.
Exchange file was subsequently created. Program forced FCO2 to be renamed PCO2. Because FCO2 was a separate measurement from PCO2 in the carbon data file, this header was changed back to FCO2 in the exchange file. Units were unchanged and remain the same (PPM@EQ).
Also exchange code did not include parameter EQTMP which was included in merge of WOCE bottle file.
All actions were RCS'd.
Same here (Netcdf and inv) needed for A08 bottle.

CTD has been converted to exchange using the new code and put online
The exchange bottle file name in directory and index file was modified to lower case.
CTD exchange files were put online.
Bottle file in exchange format has been linked to website.
Replaced current A8 bottle file with new merged file from D. Newton File contains new values for delhe3/ tr and associated errors. All table entries have been updated.
Examination of the water sample salinities turned up a mismarking of duplicate level water sample salinities plus a series of salinities with "-9.0" values but labelled as good "2" in QUALT1.
Water sample salinities are quality controlled by comparing them to up cast CTD salinities. In the deep water two water sample salinity values were found to be mismarked in the Qual1, both at the same depth of 3762 dbars in station 209. Scans in the water sample data file with Qualt1 and modified Qualt2 flags are listed below.

I've finished a report on A08 CTD data with some jpeg figure files. - Bob
Again, I would like to declare all CTD and all bottle data including the tracer-data of the WHP one-time cruises A9/M15-3, A10/M22-5 and A8/M28-1 as ,public'. This has been done several times earlier, and I hope that by now this information will flow into your files.
Also please note, all CTD-data from repeat hydrography cruises / mooring cruises with chief scientists / PIs T.J. Mueller, W. Zenk, and / or O. Boebel / C. Schmid are ,public'.

Additional changes March 20, 2000 /D. Muus
1) Ran wctcvt on March 14th files. Made following corrections:
a) a08_0165.wct: Line 4 "CTDPRES" changed to "CTDPRS"
b) a08_0167.wct: Line 2 "2917" changed to "2017"
c) a08_0187.wct Dates do not match SUMMARY file dates.
a08_0192.wct In most cases .wct file used BE date
a08_0197.wct rather than BO date. Changed all dates
a08_0198.wct to match SUMMARY file.
a08_0259.wct
2) Ran wctcvt again. no errors.
EXPOCODE 06MT28_1 (WHP-ID A08) CTD data files were reformatted March 11 - 14, 2000:
1) Cast numbers in CTD data files were changed to match cast numbers in SUMMARY file.
2) The six header lines were reformatted to match the WHPO manual format. An WHPOSIO version-stamp was added.
3) A "NUMBER OBS." column was added with "-9.0"s.
4) CTD data file names were changed from M28sss.WHP to a08_0sss.wct where sss is Station Number.
5) EXPOCODE in data file was changed from 06MT28/1 to 06MT28_1.
6) TEMP label changed from "DEC C" to "ITS-90" based on description of calibration in CTD documentation.

stnnbr=270 cast=2 btlnbr=23 changed to cast 3.
stnnbr=274 cast=2 btlnbr=20 changed to cast 3.
Cast and bottle number and sample number were incompatible between the existing .hyd file and the originators new cfc file. So I had to use the following proceedure. Multiply originators CASTNO by 100 and add to originators BTLNBR. This sum can be matched with the .hyd file's BTLNBR. Temporarily swap the SAMPNO and BTLNBR column labels in the .hyd file. Use mrgsea program to merge keying on STNNBR and SAMPNO. Swap back column labels after all merging done.

I've just put a total of 13 files [carbon data measured in Indian (6 files) and Atlantic (7 files) oceans] to the WHPO ftp area. Please let me know if you get data okay.
I have put the final CO2-related data file for the Atlantic Ocean WOCE Section A8 (R/V Meteor Cruise 28) to the WHPO ftp INCOMING area. There are two CO2 parameters: Total CO2 and fCO2 with quality flags. Please note that all fCO2 measurements are given at 20 deg. C. It is very important to have this in WHPO file header as it is in carbon file.
I received the below msg of Robert Key while I'm working in Brazil for a week. It concerns with a problem that arose earlier with A9, and may arise with A8, too. The problem maybe identified as Robert Key suspected:
On all 3 sections A9, A10 and A8, the Kiel CTD group on-board counted casts increasingly, starting with 1 and ending with some high number. All other groups on-board were asked to keep these cast numbers for identification. To my knowledge, and J. Holfort may confirm this, the cast numbers as created on-board have been used in the CTD and SUM files we sent to the WHPO. Later (I do not exactly remember when) I got to know that someone at the WHPO changed the cast numbers in the SUM and CTD files to start with 1 for each station (as it is usual for the rest of the world). However, changing the cast numbers in the CTD and SUM files will cause problems with the rosette file as it will be completed with additional data flowing in. It seems to me that this is the problem the WHPO now is facing. The way out of it would be as recommended by Robert Key:
DO NOT CHANGE CAST NUMBERS BUT KEEP THEM KEEP THEM AS THEY ARE SENT IN BY THE PIs (besides obvious mistakes). To solve the problem, you may have to reconstruct the original cast numbers from the original SUM and CTD files as they were sent in by the PIs.
Juergen Holfort who has sent the CTD, SUM and part of the HYD files for A8, A9 and A10, and myself will assist if neccessary.

Thomas J. Mueller
I have checked the .sum and .sea/.hyd files for lines
A08, A12, I08S/I09S, and P14S.
The files on the web page for A08 and I08S/I09S adhere
to the WHP format specifications, and I have run them over
the programs wocecvt and sumchk without any errors.
I have replaced the A08 bottle file with a new one from Sarilee. I have
updated all tables and related files and include the notes from Sarilee
below.
-sd
a08hy_merged_all_values.19990219.txt
Changed the cast numbers from consecutive throughout the file
to conform with the cast numbers in the .sum file and reordered
the file into station and cast order. Used information given
by the PI in the .doc file. See below.
Ran over wocecvt with no errors, but I don't guarantee that
there are no errors.

2. The bottle data
------------------
2.1 Non WHP stations included in bottle file:
Stat. 164 - 168: Teststations
165, 166 : muliple bottle closing at large depths
245, 247 : extra CTD's for biological measurements; no bottles
275 - 286 : CTD/LADCP only; no bottles; waiting for clearance for Angola
2.2 About STNNBR, CASTNO, SAMPNO, BTLNBR
The data cycles are organized to increasing STNNBR. CASTNO's are
counted consecutively (1, 2, 3, 4, 5,...) regardless which CTD was
used; one station may have several casts (mostly two). BTLNBR's are
within 301 and 324 for the rosette with the main (deep) CTD NB3, and
within 201 and 224 for the shallow CTD NB2.
Within a STNNBR, cycles are organized to increasing CTDPRS. Therefore,
the CASTNO needs not to be a monotonically increasing function in the
file.
The SAMPNO is counted with time for each CTD separately (with an offset which
makes them unique).
I have another data set ready for you. This time it is the CFC measurements (CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC-113, CCl4) for Meteor cruise M28 (A8). The data file is called M28_1.woc, the corresponding documentation is in file m28doc.txt. Helium and neon measurements from this cruise have been submitted earlier and have been declared public. Our lab has also been responsible for the tritium measurements from the cruise. The measurements have been finished, but the tritium data still need a final qulaity controll. I will send the tritium data to you as soon as possible. CFC data for the cruise can be public.
I have submitted CFC data at 1999/03/11 and declared them public.
A08 (Mueller: 06MT28_1) now has Helium and Neon (and associated parameters) in the bottle data file. Since we have no word on these data, they are masked out of the on-line file pending approval from the Chief Scientist.

As Tom Mueller announced, we were finishing the A08 data. I transfered it (using gzip ant tar to make an archive) to 132.239.92.151, director INCOMING.
The CTD, oxygen and nutrient data are 'public' and 'preliminary until evaluation of the WHPO'.
As with A10, please ask Wolfgang Roether and Doug Wallace for public availability of tracers and CO2, respectively.
1. General remarks:
The bottle data file has STNNBR, CASTNO, SAMPNO, BTLNBR, CTDRAW, CTDPRS, CTDTMP, CTDSAL, THETA0, SALNTY, OXYGEN SILCAT, NITRAT, CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC113, CCL4. Units are as requested by the WHP (dbar, ITS90, ISS78 and mass units.
The CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC113 and CCL4 still need qualification by the PI (A. Putzka, Bremen) and are not public.
The carbonate system data are still with the PI's (K. Johnson & D. Wallace, BNL).
The -SUM file is pending. W. Erasmi <werasmi@ifm.uni-kiel.de> has been asked to prepare it for the WHP-O soon; Jane is aware of this.
The CTD-files are pending. The calibration coefficients are ready. W. Erasmi will be asked to prepare the files.

2. The bottle data:
2.1 Non WHP stations included in bottle file:
Stat. 164 - 168: Test stations
165, 166 : multiple bottle closing at large depths
245, 247 : extra CTD's for biological measurements; no bottles
275 - 286 : CTD/LADCP only; no bottles; waiting for clearance for Angola
2.2 About STNNBR, CASTNO, SAMPNO, BTLNBR
The data cycles are organized to increasing STNNBR. CASTNO's are counted consecutively (1, 2, 3, 4, 5,...) regardless which CTD was used; one station may have several casts (mostly two). BTLNBR's are within 301 and 324 for the rosette with the main (deep) CTD NB3, and within 201 and 224 for the shallow CTD NB2.
Within a STNNBR, cycles are organized to increasing CTDPRS. Therefore, the CASTNO needs not to be a monotonically increasing function in the file.
The SAMPNO is counted with time for each CTD separately (with an offset which makes them unique).
2.3 Oxygen
Conversion from Umol/l to Umol/Kg using potential temperature at depth where bottles were closed.
2.4 Nutrients
Phosphate not measured due to problems with standardization (see report above).Conversion of units from Umol/l to Umol/Kg with mean laboratory temperature (20˚C) to calculate density.
