***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0064331 Created on: 2010-05-15 05:24:36 UTC By: Automated Ingest Agent Source: Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) cruise data These data are part of an effort to obtain all available Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) cruise data sets 1998-present and make them publicly available through NODC. A cruise data set is a post-cruise download of shipboard computer as deposited at the WHOI library. For more information see "http://dlaweb.whoi.edu/DIG_RES/cruisedata.html". The cruise data sets consist of directories, each of which may contain scientifically valuable data from the cruise. The main identified directories and the data they contain are listed below. Each cruise data set may contain one or more of the following (note that the directory names are all capitalized here; in the cruise data set they may be all capitalized, all lower case, or a combination): Meteorological and thermosalinograph: ATHENA90 - contains meteorological data from the IMET (Improved Meteorological Package), which includes the following: SST, air temperature, wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, solar radiation, long wave radiation, humidity, precipitation, aerosol levels, sea surface conductivity (salinity). Comment: This is the same information found in ATHENA and/or CALLIOPE in a special format. ATHENA - see ATHENA90. This is the same information, in another format. CALLIOPE - see ATHENA90. This is the same information, in another format. ATHENA99 - same as ATHENA90. Currents: ADCP - Acoustic Doppler current profiler, measures current speed and current direction. ADCP75 - same as ADCP, different format (including binary). ADCP_DATA - same as ADCP Hydrographic profiles: CTD - Conductivity-Temperature-Depth. Measures profiles of ocean temperature, salinity, pressure and sometimes oxygen, transmissivity, and fluorescence. These data may be in a processed form (ASCII CSV format) or unprocessed binary files (output from the Seasoft software). SIPPICAN_XCTD - same data as CTD, different format (including binary). XBT - Expendable bathythermograph, used to measure ocean temperature profiles. The type of XBT is noted in individual files. These data may be in the form of processed ASCII files or binary files. XCTD - Expendable bathythermograph, used to measure ocean temperature and salinity profiles. Has the same ASCII and binary format as XBT data. SALT-O2 - Salinity and dissolved oxygen measurements from salinometers and oxygen titration hydrographic analysis instruments. MOCNESS - Multiple Opening and Closing Net, with an Environmental Sensing System: sensors report conductivity (salinity), temperature, depth, and chlorophyll, oxygen and light levels. Bathymetry: CENTERBEAM - SeaBeam multibeam echosounder, bathymetric and sidescan data. SEABEAM - SeaBeam multibeam echosounder, bathymetric and sidescan data. KNUDSEN - Knudsen echosounder for measuring bathymetry. Alvin submersible: ALVIN - photographic stills from Alvin. ALVIN_EXT_STILLS - photographic stills from Alvin. ALV_EXT_STILLS - photographic stills from Alvin. ALV_EXTERNAL_STILLS - photographic stills from Alvin. ALVIN_EXTERNAL_STILLS - photographic stills from Alvin. 3### - (any directory 3000 - 3999) dive information from numbered dive of Alvin. 4### - (any directory 4000 - 4999) dive information from numbered dive of Alvin. 5### - (any directory 5000 - 5999) dive information from numbered dive of Alvin. Gravity/magnetic field: MAGNETOMETER - measurements of Earth's magnetic field. MAGNETOMOETER - same as MAGNETOMETER MAGNETICS - same as MAGNETOMETER GRAVITY - measurements of Earth's gravitational field. GRAVITY_DATA - same as GRAVITY Miscellaneous: SHARE - shared files utilized on the cruise. SCRIPTS - shared resources; shells. DOCS - documents for cruise, instrumentation. SCIENCE - miscellaneous documents saved to disk by science team. SHIPTRACK - navigational information. TERASCAN - satellite data uploaded from another source. They are not unique cruise data. Cruise photographs: CRUISE_PARTICIPANTS - photos and biographies of cruise participants. CRUISE_PICTURES - cruise photographs. PICTURES - photographs from cruise. IMAGES - photographs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Contents of computer download for cruise: KN161L02 ADCP ADCP2 ATHENA CTD SHARE XBT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The following files were automatically removed from the Submission Information Package because they were artifacts of the collection system and contain no scientific data: CTD/SEASAVE/ALIGNCTD.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/ASCIIIN.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/ASCIIOUT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/BINAVG.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/BUOYANCY.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/CELLTM.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/CFGTOCON.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/CONTOUR.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/DATCNV.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/DERIVE.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/FILTER.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/LOOPEDIT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/MARKSCAN.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/OXFIT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/OXFITW.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/OXSAT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/PHFIT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/ROSSUM.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SEACALC.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SEACON.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SEAPLOT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SEASAVE.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SECTION.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SNMEAGGA.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SNMEAGLL.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SNMEARMC.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/SPLIT.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/STRIP.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TERM11.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TERM1621.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TERM17.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TERM19.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TERM25.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TERMAFM.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TMODEM.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/TRANS.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/WFILTER.EXE CTD/SEASAVE/WILDEDIT.EXE index.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The following metadata was extracted from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Research Cruise Database: Departed: Guadeloupe on 2000-01-23 Arrived: Guadeloupe on 2000-02-04 Chief Scientist(s): Michael McCartney, WHOI Operations Area: NA9, Guiana Basin Science Activities: CTD stations and mooring deployments ------------------------------------------------------------------------ A Cruise Synopsis was retrieved from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution web site, reformatted to plain text, and has been included herein.
