Description

SOIREE Summary of CTD profiles

These data were compiled to enable a comparison of the

extracted chlorophyll data with traces of fluorescence

and transmittance from the CTD profiles.

BCO-DMO Processing Notes

Generated from original CTD_Summary.xls file provided on the

Deep-Sea Research II 48 (2001) accompanying CD-Rom

BCO-DMO Edits

- parameter names modified to conform to BCO-DMO convention

- date reformatted to YYYYMMDD

- time reformatted to HHMM

- added 'nd' to blank cells

- Chlorophyll concentrations data at end of original sheet moved to separate spreadsheet

- Data plots in original spreadsheet removed

Instruments

CTD Sea-Bird 911

Supplied Name: CTD Seabird 911

Supplied Description:

NIWA's Seabird 911plus CTD and related instrumentation

Instrument Type

Generic Name: CTD Sea-Bird 911

Acronym: CTD SBE 911

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0035/

Generic Description:

The Sea-Bird SBE 911 is a type of CTD instrument package. The SBE 911 includes the SBE 9 Underwater Unit and the SBE 11 Deck Unit (for real-time readout using conductive wire) for deployment from a vessel. The combination of the SBE 9 and SBE 11 is called a SBE 911. The SBE 9 uses Sea-Bird's standard modular temperature and conductivity sensors (SBE 3 and SBE 4). The SBE 9 CTD can be configured with auxiliary sensors to measure other parameters including dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, fluorescence, light (PAR), light transmission, etc.). More information from Sea-Bird Electronics.
