BCO-DMO Processing Notes

Generated from original file CTD_SF6.xls
provided on the Deep-Sea Research II 48 (2001) accompanying CD-Rom

BCO-DMO Edits

- Parameter names modified to conform to BCO-DMO convention

- removed all out casts data - See SOIREE_CTD_SF6_OutCasts for out cast data

- Added station column and populated it with station from a single header line in original and labeled as event

- added '#' to comments preserved from original file

- deleted blank lines and redundant station and column header lines

- padded Pot Density to 3 decimal places and other data to 2 decimal places

- date/time and lat/lon added from SOIREE_Stations_CTDSampling.xls
