File 1. NRT2_SVD_ARCHIVE_2006.zip contains 24 Sound Velocity vs Depth (SVD) files. The headers in the files contain Project, Survey, Date, Time, Latitude, Longitude, and Instrument information. Depth and Sound Velocity were obtained directly from an ODOM Digibar Velocimeter. All the filenames in this zip file have format YYDDDHHMM.ssD where: YY = 2-digit year DDD = day-of-year HHMM = time of day (UTC) ss = AB or N2 both of which indicate the data collector, NRT-2 D indicates that the archive file is of type SVD File 2. NRT2_CTD_ARCHIVE_2006.zip contains 24 CTD files. The headers in the files contain Project, Survey, Date, Time, Latitude, Longitude, and Instrument information. Pressure and Temperature were obtained directly from an SBE 19 Seacat Profiler. Salinity was derived using Sea-Birds's software, SBEDataProcessing. All three variables have been averaged into depth bins and then fitted to 1-decibar intervals by means of parabolic fitting. All the filenames in this zip file have format YYDDDHHMM.ssA where : YY = 2-digit year DDD = day-of-year HHMM = time of day (UTC) ss = AB or N2 both of which indicate the data collector, NRT-2 A indicates that the archive is of type CTD Best regards, Ruby
