cgc90sta.inv (File 4)
This file provides station inventory information for each of 63 stations occupied during the R/V Malcolm Baldrige CGC-90 Cruise. There is one entry for each station. Each line contains a section number, cast number, latitude, longitude, sampling date (day/month/year), sampling time, and sounding depth of the station. The file is sorted by station number and can be read using the following FORTRAN 77 code [contained in stainv.for (File 2)]:
INTEGER sta, cast, dep REAL lat, lon CHARACTER date*8, time*4 read (1, 10, end=999) sta, cast, lat, lon, date, time, 1 dep 10 format (6X, I2, 5X, I3, 2X, F7.3, 2X, F8.3, 2X, A8, 4X, 1 A4, 4X, I4)
Stated in tabular form, the contents include the following:
Variable | Variable Type | Variable Width | Starting Column | Ending Column |
---|---|---|---|---|
sta | Numeric | 2 | 7 | 8 |
cast | Numeric | 3 | 14 | 16 |
lat | Numeric | 7 | 19 | 25 |
lon | Numeric | 8 | 28 | 35 |
date | Character | 8 | 38 | 45 |
time | Character | 4 | 50 | 53 |
dep | Numeric | 4 | 58 | 61 |
where
- sta - is the station number;
- cast - is the cast number;
- lat - is the latitude of the station (in decimal degrees) (Stations in the Southern Hemisphere have negative latitudes);
- lon - is the longitude of the station (in decimal degrees) (Stations in the Western Hemisphere have negative longitudes);
- date - is the date the station was sampled (day/month/year);
- time - is the time the station was sampled (Greenwich Mean Time);
- dep - is the sounding depth of the station (in m).
