Data from the SBE19Plus were processed using Sea-Bird's SBE Data Processing software, v. 7.23.2.
SBE processing modules were applied in the following order: Data Conversion, Filter, Align CTD, Cell Thermal Mass, and Loop Edit were applied to the input variables using the parameters identified in the .cnv file header shown below. Oxygen data were first processed using the raw sensor voltage, then converted to units of umol/kg using the Derive module. Finally, Wild Edit was used to remove extraneous values and data were binned by depth into 1 m bins using Bin Average and converted to ASCII format using ASCII Out.
Sea state during the cruise and issues with the block used to deploy the TMR did not allow full in-water equilibration of the CTD sensors and pumping system prior to each cast. As a result, we recommend using data from the upcasts (designated with the prefix 'u' in the filename).
