MedFlux cruise: EN416 April 2006
CTD profile data processing notes

13 February 2007: Prepared for OCB data system by Terry McKee (PO Dept, WHOI) and Cyndy Chandler, OCB DMO (WHOI).

Details of CTD data processing steps:

The shipboard SeaBird CTD processing was done by Lynne Butler (URI), and she authored several documents providing details about the CTD and Niskin bottle data processing steps. The original MS Word documents have been converted to PDF files, but are otherwise identical to her original files.

Cast Log and Information (PDF file)
R/V Endeavor CTD station shipboard procedures (PDF file)
CTD system configuration details (PDF file)

Processing configurations/variables used for EN416 Cindy Lee,

Ship's Oceanographic Technician, R/V Endeavor.

Original set up of CTD: V0=Xmiss, V2=Altimeter, V3=PAR, V4=DO1, V5=DO2, V7=ECOFluor, V9=SPAR

Before CTD001 PAR removed from V3
Before CTD002 ECO Fluor moved from V7 to V3. Alt moved from V2 to V6, PAR moved from V3 to V7.
Before CTD003, 8, 12, 17, 18 & 19 - Alt & PAR removed. Niskins in positions 8-12 removed. HPSS canisters installed in their place. After cast, restored to normal w/ HPSS canisters removed & all Niskins reinstalled. See EN416/CTD/CTDLog416.xls or copies of Logsheets
Before CTD004 & 14 PAR installed on V6. After cast PAR removed.

416Filter_*
From SBE manual, "FILTER can be run before CELLTM to remove any residual response time between the temperature and conductivity sensors and to minimize digitization noise. On average, a low pass filter with a time constant of 0.03 sec reduces the noise in computed salinity slightly."
for SBE9/11 SBE9plus, older manualSBE4249.txt suggests
Low pass filter B = 0.15s for pressure
Low pass filter A = 0.03s for conductivity
New SBEDataProcessing_5.32a.pdf suggests only .15 for pressure
Used: B=0.15 for Press, Depth. A=0.03 for Cond 1 & 2 & Diff

OCB DMO processing note:

The OCB DMO used perl scripts to reformat semi-colon delimited (Seabird-processed .asc) files with Seabird parameter names to space-delimited files with OCB ontology parameter names. All data are from primary (T0 and C0) sensors; and a text file recorded the Seabird/OCB parameter name translation, see: ctd_EN416_params.txt

Important: station 19 is an uptrace (no downtrace data reported); These comments regarding stations 18 and 19 were recorded in the CTDCastLogandInfo416.xls file PDF version):

Station 18: "HPSS cast. Trip HPBottles then wait for 10min before ascending. FGP P0 = V6 went from 0 to ~0.77 at ~1300m to 2400m downcast then to 2.2 when tripped at 2400m. V6 decreased during upcast - leak in system for FGP Pressure 0. FGP P1 = V7. Fluorometer has high voltage values during downcast ~1600m+ then also on upcast to ~800m. Tripped carousel positions 9-13 two times because FGP1 didn't change when bottle should have tripped. Stopped acquisition at 500m bottle stop. The maximum of 24 positions had been tripped with still 5 bottles to trip. Those remaining 5 were tripped during CTD019."

Station 19: "HPSS cast. This cast started at 500m after ending CTD018 at 500m bottle-tripping stop during the upcast. The maximum of 24 bottle positions were fired during CTD018 to double check that High Pressure bottle tripped. Thus acquisition had to be restarted to trip remaining bottles. Niskin bottle GOEX109 bottom cap broke before CTD017, replaced w/OTE112."

1b:T1a43,The MedFlux collaborative research project will test two hypotheses of the influence of "ballast" on the flux of particulate matter through the water column. It either 1) acts as a physical shielding of the organic matter protecting it as it falls through the water column, or 2) is the ratio of mineral ballast to organic carbon that controls the sinking velocity and consequently the organic carbon flux to the deep sea. The project has two major objectives: To assess the extent to which settling velocity separation techniques accurately and reliably measure in-situ settling velocities and to devise mechanical improvements and/or statistical correction procedures to overcome any deficiencies. To develop perspectives and protocols that take advantage of the different sampling characteristics of in-situ pumps, sediment traps, and optical instruments, combined with radiochemical analysis, to assess the dependence of settling velocity and remineralization on particle size and the organic and inorganic composition of particles. Project description from the NSF award page: Collaborative Research: Mineral Ballast and Organic Matter Compositions as Determinants of Particle Settling Velocities and Fluxes in the Sea (MedFlux) Sinking particulate matter is the major vehicle for exporting carbon from the sea surface to the ocean interior. During its transit towards the sea floor, most (>90%) particulate organic carbon (POC) is returned to inorganic form and redistributed in the water column. This redistribution determines the depth profile of dissolved CO 2, which in turn determines the concentration of CO2 in the surface mixed layer, and hence the rate at which the ocean can absorb CO2 from the atmosphere. It also determines the depth profile of nutrient regeneration, which determines the time scale of return of mineral nutrients to the photic zone. The ability to predict quantitatively and mechanistically the depth profile of remineralization is therefore critical to predicting the response of the global carbon cycle to environmental change. Minerals typically constitute more than half the mass of particles sinking out of the ocean surface, and this fraction increases dramatically with depth. Marine plankton contribute biominerals, e.g., opal by diatoms and radiolarians, and CaCO3 by coccolithophorids and foraminifera. Detrital minerals (largely quartz and aluminosilicates) introduced from land by rivers and wind also can become associated with marine plankton (or their remains) through sorption and aggregation processes. Minerals are important for making less dense organic matter (OM) sink, and may also protect OM from degradation, allowing it to penetrate deeper into the ocean. Prior to the inception of MedFlux, investigators demonstrated that ratios of particulate organic carbon to mineral ballast converge to a nearly constant value (~3-7 wt% POC) at depths >1800 m (Armstrong et al. 2002), and Klaas & Archer (2002) demonstrated that the variability in the data can largely be explained by the chemical composition of the ballast (opal vs. carbonate vs. dust). The focus of MedFlux is to develop a better mechanistic understanding of this “ballast hypothesis”. In particular, given the many processes that could cause large deviations from this ratio, a fundamental goal is to understand why POC:mass ratios seem to be well-delimited, and to use this understanding to create, as fully as possible, a new mathematical description of remineralization to replace those currently in use. This last goal is of utmost significance if, for example, lowered pH causes carbonate minerals to dissolve preferentially, affecting both ballasting and the average remineralization depth of POC in the ocean. MedFlux is a collaborative research project that includes investigators from the U.S. and Europe.
