CTD SAM Data Files Dataset Description: <p>SAM data - CTD profile sampling files used to calibrate the various sensors<br />
<br />
'sam' files are sampling files used to calibrate the various sensors for the CTD profile data<br />
The files contain information from the moment each Niskin bottle was closed for each<br />
measured parameter (salinity, temperature, oxygen, etc), as well as the salinometry<br />
bottle data and the discrete Winkler oxygen titration data which have been pasted into<br />
each sam file.<br />
<br />
These data have been included in these files as it should allow the calibration coefficients<br />
to be recalculated if necessary but more importantly also provides an accountable record<br />
of how the data were calibrated. It is worth noting that the sam files are created for<br />
the purpose of deriving calibration coefficients from uncalibrated datafiles. Once the<br />
calibration is derived the sam files are not recreated. This means that the salinity and<br />
oxygen values found in the sam files are based on the manufacturers calibration only.</p> Methods and Sampling: <p>In total 168 CTD profiles were completed on cruise KNOX22RR. The maximum<br />
depth of the profiles varied from less than 10 m for the collection of water for<br />
separate carboy experiments performed by other cruise participants to a maximum<br />
of 5204 m. Most casts, however, extended to ~1000 m offshore and were limited by<br />
topography along the shelf break and inshore.<br />
<br />
Profile casts down to 1000 m were interspersed with water collection casts to<br />
increase the along-track resolution of the hydrographic data and to resolve the<br />
deeper structure beyond the euphotic zone.</p>

Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry
http://us-ocb.org/
Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry
The Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry (OCB) program focuses on the ocean's role as a component of the global Earth system, bringing together research in geochemistry, ocean physics, and ecology that inform on and advance our understanding of ocean biogeochemistry. The overall program goals are to promote, plan, and coordinate collaborative, multidisciplinary research opportunities within the U.S. research community and with international partners. Important OCB-related activities currently include: the Ocean Carbon and Climate Change (OCCC) and the North American Carbon Program (NACP); U.S. contributions to IMBER, SOLAS, CARBOOCEAN; and numerous U.S. single-investigator and medium-size research projects funded by U.S. federal agencies including NASA, NOAA, and NSF.
The scientific mission of OCB is to study the evolving role of the ocean in the global carbon cycle, in the face of environmental variability and change through studies of marine biogeochemical cycles and associated ecosystems.
The overarching OCB science themes include improved understanding and prediction of: 1) oceanic uptake and release of atmospheric CO2 and other greenhouse gases and 2) environmental sensitivities of biogeochemical cycles, marine ecosystems, and interactions between the two.
The OCB Research Priorities (updated January 2012) include: ocean acidification; terrestrial/coastal carbon fluxes and exchanges; climate sensitivities of and change in ecosystem structure and associated impacts on biogeochemical cycles; mesopelagic ecological and biogeochemical interactions; benthic-pelagic feedbacks on biogeochemical cycles; ocean carbon uptake and storage; and expanding low-oxygen conditions in the coastal and open oceans.

Coccolithophores of the Patagonian Shelf 2008
http://www.bigelow.org/research/srs/william_m_balch/barney_balch_laboratory/
Coccolithophores of the Patagonian Shelf 2008
<p>A main focus of the COPAS project is to study coccolithophores at the fringes of the Southern Ocean on the Patagonian Shelf (PS) east of Argentina. Some of the most extensive coccolithophore blooms in the world occur on the PS but the remoteness of the region has impeded their study. In this part of the southern ocean, the most basic knowledge is lacking about a) the relationships between coccolithophores and other species of phytoplankton, b) the impact of coccolithophores on the carbon cycle and c) how environmental changes affect bloom taxonomy and function.</p>
<p>This will be the first multi-disciplinary ship-based investigation of these mesoscale blooms, building on an understanding of coccolithophore ecology derived almost exclusively from northern hemisphere bloom studies. This study will document the ecological factors regulating the spatial-temporal distribution of the coccolithophore blooms (the largest recurring coccolithophorid bloom in the sounthern hemisphere) using a combination of underway, satellite and discrete sampling. Satellite measurements will provide quantitative estimates of particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) and particulate organic carbon (POC) in coccolithophore blooms while underway hydrographic and optical sampling will allow real-time evaluation of coccolithophores in both bloom and surrounding non-bloom waters. Vertical casts across the shelf front will provide depth resolved coccolithophore abundance as well as estimates of phytoplankton species richness.</p>
<p>Another goal is to examine the effects of ocean acidification on algal optical properties, coccolithophore concentrations and PIC concentrations (to be determined from deck experiments). Dilution experiments will provide key estimates on phytoplankton growth rates, coccolithophore growth rates and calcification rates, plus the intrinsic loss rates (i.e. phytoplankton grazing, coccolithophore grazing and dissolution associated with zooplankton grazing). PIC has not been examined in dilution experiments heretofore. The project will yield fundamental insights into a) our understanding of coccolithophore ecology (not just Emiliania huxleyi) and b) the utility of the "functional group" concept to describe coccolithophore variability over the PS. Such knowledge is critical to model complex biogeochemical processes that regulate phytoplankton production and the biological pump. It is also worthy of note that the PS coccolithophore populations are at the western edge of a southern hemisphere belt of enhanced coccolithophores thought to extend from the southern tip of South America to waters south of Australia, (~180 degrees of longitude).</p>
<p>The burning of fossil fuels is predicted to increase atmospheric CO2 to 750 p.p.m.v. or more under various future scenarios. As a large fraction of the anthropogenic CO2 diffuses into seawater, the ocean is becoming more acidic; it is predicted that the pH of the surface ocean will drop by up to 0.7 units by year 2300, a 5-fold increase in the proton concentration. A major goal is to examine the effects of ocean acidification on coccolithophores, in a region of low calcite saturation. This study will provide the first detailed analysis of the coccolithophores in this enormous area of high suspended calcite water. The results will be highly relevant to our basic understanding of the marine carbon cycle.</p>
<p>Financial support for the participating UK scientists was also provided by the Luminescence and Marine Plankton project funded by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory under the Joint Grant Scheme programme via Proposal Ref. 1166 to Dr. John Allen.</p>

<p>In total 168 CTD profiles were completed on cruise KNOX22RR. The maximum<br />
depth of the profiles varied from less than 10 m for the collection of water for<br />
separate carboy experiments performed by other cruise participants to a maximum<br />
of 5204 m. Most casts, however, extended to ~1000 m offshore and were limited by<br />
topography along the shelf break and inshore.<br />
<br />
Profile casts down to 1000 m were interspersed with water collection casts to<br />
increase the along-track resolution of the hydrographic data and to resolve the<br />
deeper structure beyond the euphotic zone.</p>
Specified by the Principal Investigator(s)
<p><em>SeaBird CTD Processing</em><br />
Data was acquired using SeaBird SeaSave for SBE 911 software (v7). Following each cast, data acquisition was stopped and saved to the deck unit PC. The logging software output four files per cast with the following forms: nnnnn.hex (raw data file), nnnnn.con (data configuration file), nnnnn.bl (contained record of bottle firing locations and nnnnn.hdr (header file), where 'nnnnn' was the 3-digit station number followed by the 2-digit cast number. Raw data files were processed using SeaBird SBE Data Processing software version 7.18b according to Scripps Oceanographic Institute protocols. Output files from the SeaBird processing were of the form nnnnn.cnv (binary up and down casts),<br />
nnnnn.btl and nnnnn.ros (bottle firing information). Instrument manufacturer calibrations are used in these processing stages.<br />
<br />
Additional data processing was continued within Mstar, a Matlab based data processing system developed at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton. A brief summary of the processing steps and relevant scripts is provided below. Intermediate processing files have not been submitted to the BCO-DMO database. Only the final calibrated downcast data has been submitted (so called 2db files)<br />
<br />
<em>Basic CTD data processing</em><br />
<em>ctd0:</em> This converts the SBE processed 24Hz SeaBird .cnv file into netCDF format, setting the required header information. Output: ctd22RRnnnnn_24Hz<br />
<br />
<em>ctd1:</em> This carries out a de-spike on the .24Hz data and averages it into a 1Hz file, (ctd22RRnnnnn_1Hz).<br />
Salinity, potential temperature and density are derived from the primary and secondary temperature and conductivity sensors using the international equation of state. Finally a 10 second averaged file is created, (ctd22RRnnnnn_10s).<br />
<br />
<em>ctd2:</em> Requires the user to find the first in-water, deepest and last in-water data-cycle from the .1Hz file. This script then extracts data to correspond to the full up and down casts (ctd22RRnnnnn.ctu file) and purely the downcast (ctd22RRnnnnn.2db), averaged into 2db bins.<br />
<br />
<br />
<em>Advanced data processing for calibration purposes</em> <strong><em>See dataset SAM Data Files</em></strong><br />
<em>fir0:</em> This converts the SBE processed .ros file into netCDF format. It then takes relevant data-cycles from the .10s averaged file and pastes them into a new file fir22RRnnnnn containing the mean values of all the variables at the bottle firing locations.<br />
<br />
<em>samfir:</em> This creates a master file (samnnnnn) for the cast from a blank template file and pastes in selected variables from the fir22RRnnnnn file. Variable selection depends upon the variables listed in the template file.<br />
<br />
<em>sal0:</em> Converts and reformats the salinity bottle data from salinometry measurements from Excel text files into NetCDF format. Output file: salnnnnn.bot<br />
<br />
<em>passal:</em> Pastes salinity bottle file values from salnnnnn.bot into sam22RRnnnnn file.<br />
Output file: sam22RRnnnnn.<br />
<br />
<em>botcond:</em> Bottle salinities are twice converted to conductivity values using temperature from the primary and then secondary CTD sensors. This allows independent calibration of the two sensors.<br />
Result added to sam22RRnnnnn files.<br />
<br />
<br />
<em>CTD calibration</em><br />
<em>Conductivity calibration</em><br />
Calibration of the CTD conductivity (salinity) and oxygen sensors was performed on the data.<br />
The calibration of the two Seabird conductivity channels to the salinometry results revealed a generally good agreement in both cases but also highlighted the presence of a drift on the primary conductivity channel, as shown by plots of conductivity difference against station number (i.e. time). This suggests that conductivity 2 and temperature 2 (from the secondary CTD sensor) provide more reliable estimates of salinity although the overall impact of the drift on the primary channel remained small.<br />
<br />
SeaBird claims that the correct in-situ calibration for their conductivity sensors is a linear function of conductivity with no offset. Plots of conductivity difference against conductivity added support to this and therefore the calibration coefficients A and B were calculated as<br />
<br />
<em>conductivity = A* ( primary conductivity)</em><br />
<br />
<em>conductivity = B* (secondary conductivity)</em><br />
<br />

<p>and <em>cond2<sub>bot</sub></em> is the sample bottle conductivity determined with the secondary temperature variable.<br />
Coefficient A was determined to be 1.000186 and coefficient B was determined to be 1.000098.<br />
Corrected Seabird conductivities were calculated through the application of coefficient A to primary conductivity and coefficient B to the secondary conductivity channel.<br />
<br />
Residual conductivity differences calculated as bottle conductivity minus corrected Seabird conductivity (btc-uc) were typically ±0.003 mS/cm for both channels but considerable scatter was present within the data.<br />
<br />
The mean (±stdev) conductivity residuals were -0.000051±0.0027 mS/cm and 0.00000051±0.0019 mS/cm for conductivity channels 1 and 2 respectively.<br />
<br />
<br />
<em>Oxygen calibration</em><br />
The linear regression between Seabird 43 oxygen concentrations (in ml/l) and manual Winkler titrations produced a regression equation of<br />
y = 1.048204 * SBEoxy + 0.058575<br />
where y = corrected oxygen concentration.<br />
<br />
The typical range of residual values (i.e. corrected Seabird oxygen concentration - bottle titration estimate) was ±0.06 ml/l.<br />
<br />
The mean (±stdev) residual estimate however was 0.0036±0.0395 ml/l.<br />

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.).
