I dug out the original P6 data and can verify that the data on the WHPO website ARE in the stated units of micromoles per kilogram. I pulled one station from each leg at random and in all cases, the phosphate, silicate, and nitrate concentations given in the WHPO site are approximately 97.56% of our original data. This is consistent with the conversion from micromoles per liter to micromoles per kilogram.
I am a PI of nutrients analysis on R/V Mirai BEAGLE cruise in 2003-2004 which revisited P06, A10, I03 and I04. I saw the temporal variation of nutrients on these regions, then I found a large decrease of nutrients concentration in the Pacific sector. It reminds me of a part of the cruise report as shown below. I wonder that the concentration is stated in the unit of micro mol per kilogram in the data file. However, the data originator may have submitted in micro mol per liter and nobody converted them to micro mol per kilogram. If so, the big difference I found becomes relatively reasonable because P06 data becomes ca. 1/1.026. Can you be track the nutrients data from the beginning? Do you have the paper version of data of P06? Or, would you let me know contact address of Dr. Joe Jennings who was a PI of nutrients data on P06?
tritum, helium, delhe3, tcarbn, pco2 Merged Tritium, TCarbon, and PCO2 into web bottle file. Made some Helium data corrections and described some unresolved data problems. Notes on P06E merging May 16, 2002 D. Muus 1. Merged Tritium from: http://www.soc.soton.ac.uk/soes/staff/wjj/p06trits.txt And TCARBN, PCO2 and PCO2TMP from: http://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/ftp/ndp077/p6e.dat into bottle file from web (20010925WHPOSIODM) (Missing value indicators changed from -999.9 to -9.0.) 2. QUALT2 same as QUALT1 for all merged values. 3. Tritium merge "Bottle" # in data set to SAMPNO in WOCE bottle file. 4. Added Station 3 data per Lynne Talley and Bob Key. Original documentation says Sta 3 was test cast for backup CTD #9 and ctd data not processed. But C14 samples taken and analyzed so data are included. 5. Changed Station 63, Cast 1 HELIUM from 1.9920 to -9.0000 DELHE3 from 24.71 to -999.00 HELIER from 0.0040 to -9.0000 DELHER from 0.15 to -9.00 and HELIUM & DELHE3 quality flags 1 & 2 from 2 to 9. Value from deepest bottle on Station 62 had been used for all samples on Station 63, but no samples had been collected from Station 63 per Bill Jenkins and Lynne Talley(msg Oct 31. 2001) 6. Per Lynne Talley message of May 9, 2002, Subj: p6 helium. HELIUM changed from 0.0000 to -9.0000, DELHE3 changed from 0.00 to -999.00, DELHER changed from .15 to -9.00 and quality flags changed from 2 to 9 on following samples: Sta Ca Samples 35 1 27 45 1 27 & 16 49 1 28 53 1 20 59 1 21 7. Examples of P06 sample identification problems. Other, similar, problems also found. No exhaustive search made. STA CA SMP Comments 20 1 25 ok 24 Sal, Oxy & Nuts ok; CFC, Trit, Tcarb look like deep samples.

I'm looking at the data that is on the WHPO web site (at least a version of it that was on there earlier this year, please let me know if this is ok). I'm finding that there seems to be data in the file that actually shouldn't be there. I believe these were failed analyses that somehow got included in my data submission, whenever that was. For that, I apologize! Fortunately, these spurious data points have a clear signature: they have a zero (and hence unphysical) helium concentration value. Thus any delhe3 would naturally be undefined anyway. You can eliminate these points by selecting only those delhe3 values that have non-zero helium. Unfortunately, there is a bunch of them (45 to be exact). Below is a list of the spurious points : STNNBR CASTNO SAMPNO CTDPRS HELIUM DELHE3 NEON 35 1 27 307.5 0 0 -999 45 1 27 258.7 0 0 -999 45 1 16 1112.4 0 0 -999 49 1 28 254.1 0 0 -999 53 1 20 800.4 0 0 -999 59 1 21 652.8 0 0 -999 85 1 18 1063.9 0 0 -999 97 1 19 1614.6 0 0 -999 103 1 36 18.7 0 0 -999 109 1 4 1515.1 0 0 -999 109 1 3 1713.2 0 0 -999 109 1 2 1904.2 0 0 -999 115 1 36 23.6 0 0 -999 115 1 25 712.9 0 0 -999 115 1 24 812.1 0 0 -999 115 1 20 1217 0 0 -999 115 1 17 1615.6 0 0 -999 120 1 21 1192.7 0 0 -999 120 1 19 1581.2 0 0 -999 134 1 34 112.3 0 0 -999 134 1 31 262.6 0 0 7.664 139 1 30 318.1 0 0 -999 139 1 22 1216 0 0 -999 150 1 31 318.5 0 0 -999 150 1 21 1416.6 0 0 -999 172 1 36 21.4 0 0 -999 172 1 34 109 0 0 -999 172 1 32 305.2 0 0 -999 176 1 23 1514.6 0 0 -999 186 1 36 19.1 0 0 -999 186 1 35 59.3 0 0 -999 186 1 34 109.7 0 0 -999 186 1 32 207.4 0 0 -999 186 1 31 302.4 0 0 -999 186 1 30 400.1 0 0 -999 186 1 29 501 0 0 -999 186 1 28 601.9 0 0 -999 186 1 27 702.6 0 0 -999 186 1 19 1506 0 0 -999 209 1 8 297.5 0 0 -999 227 1 22 794.6 0 0 -999 234 1 35 27.9 0 0 -999 237 1 29 502.1 0 0 -999 237 1 16 1803.4 0 0 -999 240 1 23 783.2 0 0 -99
Alex, Dave and others: We are doing the last checks on the P6 sections, and have found a bullseye in total carbon at the following sample from P06E: 12 1 28 02-9545 250.9 9.5478 34.5545 30.5 9.5196 34.2819 229.7 2.65 5.06 0.09 0.81 -9.000 -9.000 -9.000 -9.0000 -999.00 -9.000 -9.0000 -9.00 -999.0 -9.0 2054.1 -9.000 -9.000 -999.0 -9.0 322444444999999299 32244444499999929 So someone flagged the bottle itself as questionable, and nutrients were then flagged as bad, but for some reason, bottle salinity, oxygen and total carbon have been given flags of 2. The TCARBN value at this bottle is quite low compared with the adjacent bottles. I haven't checked the CTD salinity profile to see if it's terribly contorted here, so that the sample might actually be OK. We are going to remove it from the vertical section since the bottle quality is 3. However, is this what you want us to do? And if so, then the value should be flagged in the online data set.
I have checked the flags at WHPO site against my data flags for CO2 data for P6E section and found that flags at WHPO are wrong. Please use the data and flags for this cruise from my data set at: http://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/ftp/ndp077/p6e.dat
Notes on P06E merging Mar 7, 2002 D.Muus 1. Merged TCARBN, PCO2 and PCO2TMP from: http://cdiac.esd.ornl.gov/ftp/ndp077/p6e.dat into bottle file from web (20010925WHPOSIODM) per Alex Kozyr message Feb 27, 2002. 2. Missing value indicators changed from -999.9 to =9.0. 3. No QUALT2 given so used QUALT1 codes for QUALT2. 4. Made new exchange file for Bottle data. 5. Checked new bottle file with Java Ocean Atlas.
created .ps files, check with gs viewer. Created *check.txt file.
CTD has been converted to exchange using the new code and put online.
P06E files submitted by Jane Dunworth-Baker (2001.09) were located in obsolete ftp INCOMING directory under a different name. Dave Muus is in the process of checking whether or not these new files are of better quality than the ones we have online. New CSL files were a part of this package.
P6 Station 3 data from Bob Key, Oct 31, 2001, is in the odf.ucsd.edu anonymous ftp site: jswift/P6Sta3/p06esu.txt (Complete p06e SUM file with additional Sta3 info) /p6eSt3hy.txt (.SEA file for Station 3 only) /p6eSt3_hy1.csv (Exchange file for Station 3 only) for anyone needing the data now. QUALT2 word is identical to QUALT1 so if anyone has any dqe type comments please let me know. I hope to included Station 3 in the next P06E version after the other problems are resolved.
I pulled the stripcharts for the P6 stations that Lynne had questions about. We did, indeed, have some problems with wandering baselines at a few stations and what appears to be a consistent leaking bottle at several others. The apparently leaking Niskin #24 was located at a depth at which there was a strong gradient in the other nutrients, so the leak is not readily apparent except as a persistent small nitrite peak at ca 1000 - 1200 db. Station(s) Problem 101, 103, 104 Non-linear baseline meander 150, 154 - 159 Small real NO2 peak, always at Niskin 24 at 1000 - 1200 db (36 bottle rosette) 167 Bottle 24 definitely a leaker. Other nitrite values from bottles 22 - 36 affected by a baseline meander. 193 This high nitrite was due to a fluke computer problem. The value should be 0.003 vs 0.32. (Don't know if it's better to flag or change this datum.) I would agree with Lynne that she should "zero them out" for the purposes of her plot(s), and we should ask her to flag them in the WHPO data set.
Documentation for this cruise has been updated.

I was looking at Jane Dunworth-Baker's Aug 29, 2001, message and her comment "sta 156 salt at 3db should be 35.5652" appears to be referring to CTD data not Bottle data. The shallowest bottle on 156 is 23.7db. CTD salt at 3db is now 38.5652. So this will be a correction not connected with the anticipated CFC merging.
I have a copy of an email dated Oct 6, 1998 from Maggie Cook to Lynne Talley where she lists all the corrections to the p6 summary files. They are: sta 7 end pos should be -72 01.22 sta 9 strt pos 32 28.73 sta 115 strt pos 32 29.97 sta 32 all pos 86 00.00 sta 55 strt pos 101 20.11 sta 91 end pos 123 59.85 sta 165 end pos 32 29.35 and to the data: sta 156 salt at 3db should be 35.5652. Maggie also had some concern as to whether the "latest and greatest" data was at SIO-WOCE. Jim, I still have copies of Maggies "latest and greatest", in case you want them.
I was looking through the P06E .sum file and found a couple of suspicious longitudes. 1. Station 7. The present .sum records for Stations 6-8: 316N138_3 P06E 6 1 ROS 050492 2107 BE 32 30.01 S 71 49.97 W 316N138_3 P06E 6 1 ROS 050492 2157 BO 32 30.34 S 71 50.14 W 316N138_3 P06E 7 1 ROS 050592 0108 BE 32 29.45 S 71 59.91 W 316N138_3 P06E 7 1 ROS 050592 0200 BO 32 29.58 S 71 01.22 W 316N138_3 P06E 8 1 ROS 050592 0558 BE 32 29.95 S 72 10.29 W 316N138_3 P06E 8 1 ROS 050592 0653 BO 32 29.83 S 72 11.18 W The corrected Station 7 "BO" almost certainly should be: 316N138_3 P06E 7 1 ROS 050592 0200 BO 32 29.58 S 72 01.22 W Please verify that. 2. Station 32. The suspect erroneous longitude record is more subtle than for Station 7. But I think Station 32 has one or more longitude errors. Here is the present version: 316N138_3 P06E 31 1 ROS 051292 1604 BE 32 29.83 S 85 20.03 W 316N138_3 P06E 31 1 ROS 051292 1720 BO 32 30.18 S 85 19.99 W 316N138_3 P06E 32 1 ROS 051292 2258 BE 32 29.79 S 86 19.73 W 316N138_3 P06E 32 1 ROS 051392 0002 BO 32 30.06 S 86 33.00 W 316N138_3 P06E 33 1 ROS 051392 0520 BE 32 30.02 S 86 40.00 W 316N138_3 P06E 33 1 ROS 051392 0634 BO 32 30.81 S 86 40.38 W I cannot tell for certain what the error is, but I think there is one. Can you please check the navigation files and advise? The WHPO will make the necessary changes to the .sum file (& WHP-Exchange files) on receipt of your reply.
The precision of CFC-12 for p06e was estimated at 3%, outside the original standards for precision, but within the relaxed standards (3% or 0.015 pmol/kg overall precison).
CTD and Bottle files in exchange format have been put online.
STUART, DANA would like the data PUBLIC. Sorry about excluding the headers... should have included them in the body of the last message. Here they are: Lab ID (WHOI NOSAMS = 1, U-Wash/Quay = 3 WOCE line/WHPID Station Cast Niskin del-C13 value del-C13 Quality Flag Please also note for those P6 files that the default value is -9, for those which do not have a REAL C13 value.
2000.12.11 KJU File contained here is a CRUISE SUMMARY and NOT sumfile. Documentation is online. 2000.10.11 KJU Files were found in incoming directory under whp_reports. This directory was zipped, files were separated and placed under proper cruise. All of them are sum files. Received 1997 August 15th.
Merged PCO2TMP data from A. KOZYR into hyd file. Updated hyd file is on-line.
(tcarbn, pco2) Merged TCARBN and PCO2 data into hyd file. Updated hyd file is on line. Merging notes in original subdir 2000.08.24_P06_CO2_KOZYR. A. Kozyr data for p06c, p06w, p06e were placed together in the original subdir 2000.08.24_P06_ALL_LEGS_CO2_KOZY. Copied each data set to related p06 subdir for merging. Specific notes on merging TCARBN and PCO2 on p06e: After merging data, had to extract all values from hyd file and convert previously existing missing data values from -9.0 (flag1) to -999.0 (flag9). Remerged.
Bottle: (delc14, c14err) Merged delC14 and c14err data into hyd file. Updated hyd file was put on line. Merging comments are in original subdir 2000.05.10_P06_C14_KEY. All C14 data/notes for P06 legs p06c, p06e, p06w came in one dir. from Bob Key (2000.05.10_P06_All_LEGS_C14_KEY).This data dir. was copied to each cruise leg subdir. The edited data file, p06_c14_edt.dat, was reformatted and prepared for merging, then copied into each cruise subdir. NOTE: One entry in this file was erroneous. The entry had a station value of b2532. I reviewed the bottle data file and determined this was meant to be station 32, cast 1, sample 25; edited this entry for merging. Also, the Key data file header reports the file format is station, cast, bottle....; This format does not match the bottle file format. C14 data was merged as station, cast, sample.... Specific notes on p06e: Some c14 data existed in the hyd file before merging. This data matched the data to be merged (except it wasn't a complete data set, only partial). Data existed on stations 17,24,44,54,69.Merged new data over existing data.
Moved files p06ehy.txt and changes from ftp-incoming.2000.02.14/. changes is a text file that has comments on several bottle files, p06ehy.txt is one of them. File was received November 11, 1999. Data appears to be the same as the one online, except the online data has an older time stamp than the file. The website stamp is 19990216WHPOSIOSCD. The file has a time stamp of 19991129WHPOSIODMN. According to Website, all data for this cruise is public. Path is p06/p06e/original/1999.11.30_PO6_BOTTLE_DMN.
I have moved all three legs of P06 CO2 data into the parent P06 original directory. Data (TCARBN, and PC02, PCO2TEMP) were sent by Alex Kozyr on 2000.08.24. Email accompanies data in /onetime/p06/original/2000.08.24_P06_ALL_LEGS_CO2_KOZYR. Data are public and have not yet been merged. "to merge" table has been updated to reflect this.
I have put the long waited and finally released by Doug Wallace final CO2-related data files for the Pacific Ocean WOCE Sections P6E, P6C, and P6W to the WHPO ftp INCOMING area.
After looking at P6E cfcs again, we have a couple of changes to make to P6E quality bytes. They are listed below. Please make these changes to your current file.

I updated the bottle quality flags in p06ehy.txt as per Rana Fine's email today. I placed the file in the ftp on whpo.ucsd.edu in my subdirectory TALLEY. Please acknowledge receipt and that the file online has been replaced by the edited file.
The C-14 section captures most of the features for P6, however, I think that you only have about half the data. The details of how this could happen are too long to worry about, but it is probably my fault. I have attached an ascii file with all of the results. One problem is that the current hydro file at WHPO does not include data for station 3. Early versions of the sea file included stations 1-3, but these locations were re-sampled and subsequently 1-3 declared "test". As early as 1995 I lobbied to get station 3 data added back into the official files, and it was for awhile. When the far eastern portion of the secion was re-sampled, some of the tracers which had been sampled originally were not re-collected. The reasons varied. With respect to C-14, cutting station 3 is equivalent to discarding ~10K worth of analyses and it creates a very important hole in the section. The problem is less severe (due to sampling density) for carbon parameters, but it exists. I do not know the whether or not H-3 was collected on any of station 1-3. I found no glaring problems with the bottle data from station 3 and think that the C-14 data alone justifies keeping this station in the official WOCE data file. When the section is remade, it is important that the contour labels be attached to the C-14 minimum around 2300m at the eastern end of the section. The fact that the minimum is segregated into eastern and western lobes is one of the most important results from the deep Pacific radiocarbon program. I also believe that the deep/abyssal relative max around 102W is real and probably indicative of a weak western boundary flow along the flank of the ridge. WHPO: I have ftp'ed a copy of the attached file to your INCOMING directory called P6-C-14.dat
This is a follow-up to last month's message requesting that all of our Pacific and Indian Ocean CFCs be made accessible to the public. Our cruises are; (Pacific) P17C, P1716S, P06E, P19C, P17N, P21E, and (Indian) I09N, I05W/I04, I07N, I10.
My name is Danie Bartolacci, and I'm a programmer/analyst working for both theWHPO and Lynne Talley. I'm trying to track down information about C-13 measurements taken for some WOCE Pacific lines. I've recently corresponded with Bob Key who directed me to you. My understanding from Bob is that processing of C-13 for these lines is finished. Is it possible to obtain the data and/or an update on their status for the following cruise lines? Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time!

P06E (316N138/3) CFCs have been updated/merged with the bottle data file. All tables and associated files have been updated as well.
I just ftp'd our cfc files to the /INCOMING/RFine_cfcs directory. The files named *.sea are hydro files with our final cfc values and quality bytes merged in. The files named *_cfcs.dat are files that include station, cast, bottle, cfcs and quality bytes. EXPOCODE 31WTTUNES/2 WHP-ID P17S,P16S EXPOCODE 31WTTUNES/1 WHP-ID P17C EXPOCODE 316N138/12 WHP-ID P19C EXPOCODE 318MWEST_4_5 WHP-ID P21E/W EXPOCODE 316N138/3 WHP-ID P6E Each file looks fine and has been placed in the proper archived directory on our machine so that they can be merged in with the rest of the values. -Steve Diggs Steve- I just ftp'd our cfc files to the /INCOMING/RFine_cfcs directory. The files named *.sea are hydro files with our final cfc values and quality bytes merged in. The files named *_cfcs.dat are files that include station, cast, bottle, cfcs and quality bytes. Please let me know if you have any problems and I'll let you know if we have any changes (hopefully not...). We are still working on P17N and I'll get it to you as soon as we finish.
My policy has been to get any data I have to WHP within 1wk of receiving the preliminary data report from NOSAMS. This includes Quay and Schlosser data as well. According to my records: Public: All of P6 (E,C,W)
