I didn't use the automatic system so I have to send this file manually.

It's generated at our end. (2) I attached a file showing the cruise track and you can see those that are on LAND....there are approximately 9 - 10 profiles on LAND. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ouellet, Mathieu" Date: Friday, July 29, 2011 3:29 pm Subject: RE: CTD April 2011 processing notes for GTSPP profiles > > Hi Melanie > > > > (1)There was indeed a suspicious interchange between FZVN and FVNM, > > but I'm not sure whether FZVN or FVNM is the right call sign for > > this cruise.
