          1.  OVERVIEW 
          
          The first leg of OCEANUS 202 commenced on July 23, 1988 with departure from 
          Reykjavik, Iceland at 10:12 A.M. GMT. The first station was located just 
          offshore of southern Iceland at 63°19.7'N, 19°59.9'W to a depth of 195 meters. 
          The first leg ended at Station 65 on August 6, 1988 at 33°18'N, 21°37'W. After a 
          brief port stop in Funchal, Madeira, work resumed with a reoccupation of Station 
          65 (at 32°51'N, 21°20'W) on August 11, 1988, and continued through Station 129 
          on August 27, 1988.
          
          Station spacing was generally 30 nautical miles from Stations 1 to 71 with the 
          exception of reduced spacing over steep topography. Spacing from Stations 72 
          to 112 was about 46 nautical miles. Spacing was the reduced across the equator. 
          Stations 61, 62, 63, and 65 were repeated in order to complete the patchy 
          vertical sampling resulting from a pylon problem, discussed below.
          
          Each station consisted of a CTD/rosette cast to within 10 meters of the ocean 
          bottom, with the exception of the repeated casts at Stations 61, 62, 63 and 65 
          which were 1000 to 1500 meters. The rosette carried 24 4-liter bottles.
          
          Ship navigation was either Loran-C (to about 50°N), GPS or transit-omega, the 
          latter used only when GPS fixes were insufficient. Navigation was recorded on a 
          SAIL loop and was networked to ODF's computer system where it was used for 
          station positions and bathymetry. Bathymetry was recorded every five minutes 
          from the OCEANUS' PGR.
          
          An acoustic doppler current profiler (ADCP) was operated throughout the first 
          leg by Frederick Bingham of SIO. Water in the transducer well resulted in 
          termination of ADCP acquisition on August 21. Scripps Shipboard Technical 
          Support/Oceanographic Data Facility (ODF)ls/Neil Brown Mark 3 CTD #2, rosette 
          frame and General Oceanics pylon were used throughout. A set of new 2.5 liter 
          Niskin bottles were provided by John Bullister of WHOI; they were designed to 
          minimize 0-ring contact with the sample water so that CFC samples would be as 
          uncontaminated as those drawn from 10-liter bottles.
          
          Bob Williams and Forrest Mansir of ODF provided the at-sea support of the ODF 
          equipment. CTD data were acquired on an ODF deck unit and Integrated 
          Solutions computer, audio backups were recorded on video tape. Frank 
          Delahoyde of ODF provided the software support and shipboard CTD data 
          processing. Salinity samples were analyzed on a Guildline autosalinometer by 
          Forrest Mansir and Leonard Lopez of ODF. Oxygen samples were analyzed on 
          the ODF's titration rig by Ron Patrick of ODF and Bob Williams. Nutrient samples 
          were analyzed for NO3 NO2 PO4 and SiO3 on an Alpkem Rapid Flow Analyzer, by 
          Joe Jennings from Oregon State University. The OSU and ODF computer 
          systems were networked for data transfer and thus permitted complete 
          preliminary data reports at various points during the cruise.
          
          CFC samples were collected by John Bullister, Scott Doney, and Chris Johnston 
          and were processed at sea. Tritium/helium samples were collected by Scott 
          Doney for later processing by Bill Jenkins' group at WHOI. Because of the water 
          demands when tritium/helium and CFC samples were both being drawn, oxygen 
          samples were drawn from the copper helium tube rinse water.
          
          Preliminary CTD data processing was carried out at sea during and after the 
          casts. Subsets of CTD data comparable to the water samples were provided to 
          the bottle data files immediately after each station in order to facilitate 
          examination and quality control of the bottle data as the laboratory analyses 
          were completed. It was discovered relatively quickly at sea that one of the ODF 
          pylons was occasionally double-tripping and then skipping trips. This and other 
          tripping problems were persistent on this expedition, perhaps partly because of 
          the high profiling speeds and attendant stress on the terminations and slip 
          rings. The effects on the final data are documented later in this report. 
          (Appendices A and B).
          
          
          
          2.  NISKIN BOTTLE DATA COLLECTION, ANALYSES, AND PROCESSING
          
          After each rosette cast was brought on board, analysts drew water samples from 
          each sampler for various parameters and recorded the water sample bottle 
          assignment along with the Niskin sampler it was drawn from. STS/ODF data 
          checking procedures included verification that the sample was assigned to the 
          correct level This was accomplished by checking the raw data sheets, which 
          included the raw data value and the water sample bottle, versus the sample log 
          sheets. The raw data computer files were also checked for entry errors. 
          Investigation of data included comparison of bottle salinity and oxygen with CTD 
          data, and review of data plots of the station profile alone and compared to 
          nearby stations.
          
          If a data value did not either agree satisfactorily with the CTD or with other 
          nearby data (for example in a plot comparison), analyst and sampling notes, 
          plots, and nearby data were reviewed. If any problem was indicated the data 
          value was flagged or deleted. (However, ODF preserves in its archives all bottle 
          data values.)
          
          Problems with the rosette pylon and electrical harness caused tripping problems. 
          In most cases, ODF reports CTD data from scheduled bottle trip levels even 
          when there might not have been a water sampler closure. This has been done to 
          preserve a well-sampled discrete profile and hence better accommodate 
          investigators who prefer using bottle data files exclusively. Other extra CTD 
          levels were extracted from CTD data for purposes of reporting data at the 
          deepest point. Because there is only a small separation between the deepest 
          bottle and the deepest CTD level, we advise caution in use of this bottommost 
          level if the data are interpolated. The repeated stations 61, 62, 63 and 65 
          should not be merged as unacceptable offsets in most parameters results.
          
          
          2.1.  PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE
          
          All pressures and temperatures for the Niskin bottle data tabulations for 
          Oceanus Cruise 202 were extracted from the processed CTD data, usually those 
          from the corrected 10-second average bottle trip files collected during the up 
          cast. (See below.) 
          
          
          2.2.   SALINITY
          
          Salinity samples were drawn into ODF citrate salinity bottles which were rinsed 
          three times before filling. Salinity was determined after sample equilibration 
          to laboratory temperature, usually within about 8-36 hours of collection. 
          Salinity has been calculated according to the equations of the Practical 
          Salinity Scale of 1978 (UNESCO, 1981) from the conductivity ratio determined 
          from bottle samples analyzed (minimum of two recorded analyses per sample bottle 
          after flushing) with a Guildline Autosal Model 8400A salinometer standardized 
          against Wormley P-108 standard seawater, with at least one fresh vial opened per 
          cast, or from the corrected CTD conductivity, temperature, and pressure.
          
          Accuracy estimates of bottle salinities run at sea are usually better than 0.002 
          psu relative to the specified batch of standard. Although laboratory precision 
          of the Autosal can be as small as 0.0002 psu when running replicate samples 
          under ideal conditions, at sea the expected precision is about 0.001 psu under 
          normal conditions, with a stable lab temperature. Still, because a small droplet 
          of fresh water, or the residue from a small evaporated droplet of seawater, can 
          affect a bottle salinity in the third decimal place, and because the Autosal 
          salinometer is sensitive to environmental fluctuations (such as experienced in 
          the van borrowed for this expedition), salinities from bottle samples have a 
          lower true precision under field conditions than in the laboratory. There was a 
          problem with temperature control in the van where the salinity analysis 
          occurred. Some of the missing bottle salinity values are attributed to this 
          problems. ODF typically deleted the Niskin bottle salinity from this report, and 
          substituted the corrected CTD salinity, whenever there was any question 
          regarding its validity (See Appendix B).
          
          
          2.3.   OXYGEN
          
          Samples were collected for dissolved oxygen analyses soon after the rosette 
          sampler was brought on board and after CFC and Helium were drawn. Nominal 
          100 ml volume iodine flasks were rinsed carefully with minimal agitation, then 
          filled via a drawing tube, and allowed to overflow for at least 2 flask volumes. 
          Reagents were added to fix the oxygen before stoppering. The flasks were 
          shaken twice; immediately, and after 20 minutes, to assure thorough dispersion 
          of the Mn(OH)2 precipitate. The samples were analyzed within 4-36 hours.
          
          Dissolved oxygen samples were titrated in the volume-calibrated iodine flasks 
          with a 1 ml microburet, using the whole-bottle Winkler titration following the 
          technique of Carpenter (1965). Standardizations were performed with 0.01N 
          potassium iodate solutions prepared from pre-weighed potassium iodate crystals. 
          Standards were run at the beginning of each session of analyses, which typically 
          included from 1 to 3 stations. Several standards were made up and compared to 
          assure that the results were reproducible, and to preclude basing the entire 
          cruise on one standard, with the possibility of a weighing error. A correction 
          (-0.014 ml/l) was made for the mount of oxygen added with the reagents. 
          Combined reagent/seawater blanks were determined to account for oxidizing or 
          reducing materials in the reagents, and for a nominal level of natural iodate 
          (Brewer and Wong 1974) or other oxidizers/reducers in the seawater.
          
          The quality of the KIO3 is the ultimate limitation on the accuracy of this 
          methodology. The assay of the finest quality KIO3 available to ODF is 100%, 
          ±0.05%. The true limit in the quality of the bottle oxygen data probably lies in 
          the practical limitations of the present sampling and analytical methodology, 
          from the time the rosette bottle is closed through the calculation of oxygen 
          concentration from titration data. Overall precision within a group of samples 
          has been determined from replicates on numerous occasions, and for the system as 
          employed on this expedition, one may expect ±0.1 to 0.2%. The overall accuracy 
          of the data is estimated to be ±0.5%.
          
          
          2.4.   NUTRIENTS
          
          The following section was contributed by Lou Gordon of Oregon State University. 
          Nutrient analyses were performed by Joe C. Jennings, Jr. and Lee Goodell of 
          Oregon State University using an Alpkem Corp. Rapid Flow Analyzer, Model 
          RFA-300 (RFA). The methods for silicic acid, nitrate plus nitrite and nitrite 
          were those given in the Alpkem manual (Alpkem, 1987). The method for phosphate 
          was an adaptation of OSU's hydrazine reduction method for the AutoAnalyzer-II 
          (Atlas et al., 1971). The adaptation consisted of scaling reagent concentrations 
          and pump tube sizes to duplicate final concentrations of reagents in the sample 
          stream used with OSU's AutoAnalyzer-II phosphate method. All of these methods 
          had been tested as implemented on the RFA-300 by comparison with an 
          AutoAnalyzer-II simultaneously running OSU's existing AutoAnalyzer-II methods. 
          The results were equal or better in all cases, with respect to accuracy, 
          precision, linearity and interferences.
          
          Sampling for nutrients followed that for the tracer gases, He, Tritium, CFCs, 
          and dissolved oxygen. Samples were drawn into 30cc high density polyethylene, 
          narrow mouth, screw-capped bottles. Then they were immediately introduced 
          into the RFA sampler by pouring into 4cc polystyrene cups which fit the RFA 
          sampler tray. Both the 30cc bottles and 4cc cups were rinsed three times with 
          rinses of approximately one third their volume prior to filling. Analyses 
          routinely were begun within twenty minutes after the 30cc bottles were filled 
          and completed within an additional hour and a half. When the RFA malfunctioned, 
          delays of up to several hours were experienced. If the delay was anticipated to 
          be more than one half hour, the samples were refrigerated. Samples were 
          refrigerated and stored up to 8 hours on stations 7-8. Station 13 was 
          refrigerated for ca. 6 hours. All samples from stations 1-6 were irretrievably 
          lost because of difficulties in starting up the RFA system at the beginning of 
          the expedition.
          
          During this cruise short-term precision was monitored by analyzing replicate 
          samples taken from the same Niskin bottle and by taking replicate samples from 
          Niskin bottles tripped at the same depth. Results from closely similar depths on 
          the same station were also compared. The results are shown in Table I. It is 
          emphasized that these data represent short-term precision, on order of minutes 
          to an hour.
          
          To check accuracy results were compared with historical data taken from the 
          region. Selected, modern, high quality data sets were used for the comparison. 
          The present data set compares within OSU's accuracy estimated from identified 
          sources of error and estimates of their magnitude, i.e., silicic acid, 2%; 
          phosphate, 1%; nitrate plus nitrite, 1%; and nitrite, 0.02 micromoles per liter. 
          The fractional values are relative to the highest concentrations found in the 
          regional water columns.

          3.   CTD DATA COLLECTION, ANALYSES, AND PROCESSING
          
          CTD sensors and electronics have known response limitations in a dynamic 
          marine environment. To the extent that the instrument responses are stable and 
          repeatable, ODF and other groups can use an evolved set of sensor models, 
          calibration procedures, and algorithms to correct the output of the instrument. 
          ODF NBIS MkIII CTD data represents a successful application of these 
          procedures, with the possible exception of the oxygen sensor data. It is 
          possible under ideal circumstances to produce deep CTD data with an absolute 
          accuracy of about 2 dbar, 0.002°C, and 0.002 psu. (Absolute accuracies are 
          sometimes worse, especially in high gradient and/or high ship roll situations.) 
          
          During ODF CTDO operations, pressure, temperature, conductivity, dissolved 
          oxygen, elapsed time, altimeter, transmissometer and voltage signals were 
          acquired from the underwater unit at a maximum frequency (i.e., for P, T, and C) 
          of 25 Hz. The data were transmitted as an FSK signal which was demodulated 
          by an ODF-designed deck unit. The deck unit output a 9600 baud RS-232C data 
          stream. An Integrated Solutions UNIX workstation computer served as the real 
          time data acquisition processor.
          
          Data acquisition consisted of storing all raw binary data and also generating 
          and storing a corrected and filtered 0.5-second average time series. (Audio data 
          were recorded on video tape as an ultimate back-up.) An absolute value and 
          first-order gradient single-frame filter was applied to each channel. For each 
          0.5 seconds of data, a 4,2 sigma standard deviation filter was passed over each 
          channel The remaining data for the 0.5 second block were then averaged. 
          Conductivity was corrected for thermal and pressure effects. Pressure and 
          conductivity were lagged to match the PRT temperature response. Pressure was 
          corrected for thermal and pressure hysteresis effects. Data calculated in real 
          time from this time series were reported and plotted during the cast. Also, an 
          average of the time series data (usually 10 seconds) was calculated for each 
          water sample collected during the data acquisition (these CTD values 
          corresponding to rosette bottle closures were also be recomputed later when 
          necessary). If required, a spike/drop-out filter was employed to remove 
          remaining large pressure, temperature and conductivity spikes from the 0.5-
          second time series data. (These were the type due to cable and slip ring noise, 
          for example.) A ship-roll filter (disallowing pressure reversals) was used 
          during the transformation of the data to a 2.0 dbar pressure series.
          
          
          3.1   CTD LABORATORY CALIBRATIONS
          
          The CTD pressure transducer was calibrated pre- and post-cruise in a 
          temperature-controlled bath to the ODF Ruska deadweight-tester pressure 
          standards. In the pressure calibration the mechanical hysteresis loading and 
          unloading curves were measured pre-/post-cruise at 0.2/0.5°C to a maximum of 
          8830 psi, and at 28.5/28.1°C to a maximum of 2030 psi. The transducer thermal 
          response time is derived from the pressure response to a thermal step change 
          from the high to the low bath temperatures. For high latitude work, the "high 
          temperature" calibration is often performed at 5°C.
          
          The CTD PRT temperature transducer was calibrated pre- and post-cruise in a 
          temperature controlled bath with a NBLS ATB 1250 resistance bridge and a 
          Rosemount standard platinum resistance thermometer which is checked frequently 
          against the triple points of water and diphenyl ether. Seven or more calibration 
          temperatures between 0 and 31°C were measured pre- and post-cruise. 
          
          
          3.2.   CTD PRESSURE CORRECTIONS
          
          The dynamic response of the pressure sensor is typically quite different than 
          the published specifications. Pressure error contributes inaccuracies to 
          properties (especially salinity) calculated from pressure and other 
          measurements. The pressure transducers used by ODF exhibit both a thermal 
          response and a pressure hysteresis. These response characteristics are 
          repeatable and can be corrected by a model based upon calibration experiments. 
          Since this type of sensor is prone to a pressure hysteresis that is dependent 
          upon the maximum loading pressure, the model utilizes a single loading pressure 
          calibration and multiple unloading pressure calibrations (to various maximum 
          pressures). The calibration is repeated at various calibration temperatures (see 
          above). A lagged temperature (calculated from the CTD PRT sensor temperature) is 
          used to model the internal transducer temperature, based upon thermal step 
          change response calibration data. In this way ODF can produce final CTD 
          pressures from the up and down casts accurate to 2 dbars. While this degree of 
          accuracy is not critical per se to most oceanographers, it minimizes the effects 
          of pressure errors on salinity calculations. 
          
          Thermometric pressures were not measured on this expedition. The pre- and post-
          cruise laboratory pressure calibrations were compared. Other than a small 
          offset, which was automatically adjusted for each cast as the CTD entered the 
          water, there was no remarkable difference between the two calibration results 
          for CTD #2. The pre- and post-cruise calibrations agreed within 2.5 decibars, 
          and there was no significant slope difference. No change was made to the 
          shipboard CTD pressure data, to which the pre-cruise pressure calibrations had 
          already been applied. Oceanus 202 pressures from stations with low ship roll are 
          probably accurate to about ±3dbar, with some degradation probable at stations 
          with high ship roll. 
          
          
          3.3.   CTD TEMPERATURE CORRECTIONS
          
          CTD #2 had two PRTs. PRT #1 was the main temperature sensor and was used 
          exclusively in all data processing. PRT #2 was a secondary temperature sensor 
          installed to provide a check for the primary PRT. 
          
          A comparison of the pre- and post-cruise laboratory PRT temperature transducer 
          calibrations showed an average +0.0035°C shift for PRT #1. and an average 
          +0.0030°C shift for PRT #2. There was a also very small slope difference between 
          the two PRT #1 calibrations. There were no thermometric temperatures measured to 
          check for drifts or shifts in the CTD temperature sensor during the cruise, and 
          no remarkable instances of drift were observed. Bemuse there was far less 
          scatter in the pre-cruise results, the pre-cruise calibration coefficients were 
          used, plus an additional +0.002°C offset to balance out the pre-/post-cruise 
          difference. 
          
          While the PRT laboratory calibration is thought to be accurate to within 
          ±0.001°C Oceanus Cruise 202 temperatures in low gradient regions, i.e. where the 
          CTD electronics have stabilized to the ambient water temperature and the 
          response time errors are small, are probably accurate in absolute terms to about 
          ±0.002°C. 
          
          
          3.4.   CTD CONDUCTIVITY CORRECTIONS
          
          Check-sample conductivities were calculated from the battle salinities using 
          corrected CTD pressures and temperatures. The differences between sample and CTD 
          conductivities from pressures less than 1500 decibars were fit to CTD 
          conductivity using a linear least-squares fit. Values greater than 2 standard 
          deviations from the fit were rejected. The resulting conductivity correction 
          slopes for each cast were fit to station number, giving a continuous smoothed 
          conductivity slope correction as a function of station number. Conductivity 
          differences were calculated for each cast after applying the preliminary 
          conductivity slope corrections. Residual conductivity offsets were then 
          calculated for each cast and fit to station number. The resulting smoothed 
          offsets were then applied to the data. 
          
          The conductivity sensor and/or electronics for CTD #2 displayed a sensitivity to 
          pressure change beginning about 1500 decibars. This effect was better isolated 
          by first applying the preliminary conductivity correction described above. After 
          careful examination, it was determined that the problem began about 1350 
          decibars, where the effect on conductivity was negligible. The distortion 
          continuously increased to the cast bottom, where the effect was approximately 
          0.03 mmhos/cm for a 6000-decibar cast. An additional first-order conductivity 
          slope as a function of pressure was determined using deep conductivity 
          differences:
          
                     newC = oldC - 6.34e-6*pressure + (Coffset at 1350 decibars)
          
          After applying this slope to the CTD data from 1350 decibars to the bottom of 
          each cast, the conductivity slope as a function of conductivity and conductivity 
          offset corrections were recalculated.
          
          All depth ranges were used to determine the final conductivity slopes as a 
          function of conductivity. The final smoothed slopes were determined in two 
          groups, with the first 69 stations grouped together and the rest of the 
          stations, with a constant slope, in the second group. Smoothed offsets were 
          applied to each cast, then manually adjusted to account for discontinuous shifts 
          in the conductivity transducer response, and/or to insure a consistent deep 
          theta-S relationship from station to station.
          
          The final bottle-CTD conductivity differences give the following results:

                 ("4,2rej" means a 4,2 standard-deviation rejection filter  
                 was used on the differences before generating the results)
          
          
          3.5   CTD DISSOLVED OXYGEN DATA
          
          Dissolved oxygen data were acquired using a Sensormedics (Formerly Beckman) 
          dissolved oxygen sensor. The same oxygen sensor was used during the entire 
          cruise. Sufficient (>12/cast) high-quality oxygen check samples were collected 
          to make CTD oxygen calibration feasible.
          
          CTD down-cast raw oxygen currents were extracted from the corrected pressure-
          series data at isopycnals corresponding to the up-cast check-samples. The 
          differences between CTD and check-sample dissolved oxygens were used to generate 
          coefficients for a sensor model on a station-by-station basis. In the ODF 
          software model of the response of the Beckman dissolved O2 sensor, filters are 
          employed to correct for temperature and pressure response. The temperature at 
          the surface of the sensor membrane is calculated and used to compute the 
          diffusion time constant for the membrane. A diffusion time delay is also 
          calculated. Pressure, temperature and salinity are found at the diffusion time 
          and modeled to match the O2 response. Oxygen partial pressure is then calculated 
          taking into account the dissolved O2 partial-pressure in atmospheres, the sensor 
          current, the offset current of the sensor, the pressure at response-time, the 
          pressure correction coefficient, the temperature correction coefficient, the 
          temperature at response-time, the salinity at response-time, the salinity 
          correction coefficient, the natural log of the slope of O2 conversion, and the 
          offset of O2 conversion. Modeling coefficients are determined by applying a non-
          linear fitting procedure to residual differences derived from Winkler titration 
          check sample data.
          
          The statistics below represent the final bottle-CTD oxygen differences:

                 ("4,2rej" means a 4,2 standard-deviation rejection filter 
                 was used on the differences before generating the results)
          
          
          Several casts in this cruise did not have any bottle data for an extensive 
          portion of the cast. Bottle oxygen values from nearby stations were matched up 
          to those down-casts in order to ensure a reasonable data fit. The following 
          casts were affected: station 61-63 cast 1 (used corresponding cast 2 oxygens for 
          missing bottles above 1200 decibars), station 64 cast 1 (used station 63 cast 1 
          bottle values between 3800 decibars and bottom), and station 127 cast 1 (used 
          station 126 cast 1 bottles, where reasonable, above 3800 decibars). These added 
          bottle differences were included when generating the final statistics in the 
          paragraph above.
          
          The oxygen sensor often requires several seconds in the water before it is wet 
          enough to respond properly; this is manifested as low oxygen values at the start 
          of some casts. Flow-dependence problems occur when the lowering rate varies, or 
          when the CTD is stopped, as at the cast bottom or bottle trips, where depletion 
          of oxygen at the sensor causes lower oxygen readings. CTD down-cast oxygen data 
          are typically better because of the more continuous lowering rate; any non-
          bottom CTD stops observed in the down-trace data are documented in the CTD 
          Processing Notes (Appendix A).
          
          Several casts without bottom oxygen bottle values did not have an appropriate 
          nearby-cast bottle to substitute. The bottom data of the CTD traces for such 
          casts tend to wander a little in the low direction. This may happen on other 
          casts because of slowing down the package for the bottom approach.
          
          
          3.6.   ADDITIONAL PROCESSING 
          
          A software filter was used on half of the casts to remove various conductivity, 
          temperature, or oxygen spiking problems. These spiking problems were due to 
          signal reception problems caused by slip rings, pylon noise (numerous new end 
          terminations and signal problems on this expedition) and ship-roll generated 
          spiking not solved by the roll filter. Overall, less than 0.4% of the time-
          series data in those casts were affected. Pressure did not require filtering. 
          The down-cast (up-cast for Stations 10, 115, and 125) portion of each time-
          series was then pressure-sequenced into 2-decibar pressure intervals. A ship-
          roll filter was applied to disallow pressure reversals on every cast except 
          station 11 cast 2: a 17 percent reduction in the number of missing data levels 
          for this cast resulted from not using the filter.
          
          Density inversions which still remain in high-gradient regions cannot be 
          accounted for by a mis-match of pressure, temperature and conductivity sensor 
          response. Detailed examination of the raw data shows significant miring 
          occurring in these areas as a consequence of ship roll. The ship-roll filter 
          resulted in a reduction in the amount and/or size of density inversions.
          
          Several shipboard time-series data sets had problems with large areas of missing 
          or noisy data. Many of these casts were partially or fully recovered by re-
          digitizing the raw signal from analog tape. Those casts which could not be fully 
          recovered by filtering or re-digitizing are documented in the CTD Processing 
          Notes (Appendix A). All other remaining problems are documented in the inventory 
          as well.
          
          
          3.7.   GENERAL COMMENTS/PROBLEMS 
          
          There is one pressure-sequenced CTD- data set, to near the ocean floor, for each 
          of 129 stations, numbered 1 through 129. There were also 4 stations - 61, 62, 
          63, and 65 - which had two casts (deep and shallow) in order to recover 
          shallower bottle data information missed on the deep casts because of rosette 
          malfunctions, there were two shakedown stations, and there was one aborted cast, 
          for a total of 136 CTD casts. The first three of the two cast stations were 
          collected during re-occupations of the stations (about 22 hours later). These 
          four shallower casts were originally given a cast number of 11 but are now 
          called cast 2. The aborted cast was carried out at Station 11, and another CTD 
          cast was done immediately afterward at the same location (and called cast 2). 
          The data from the shakedown stations are not included in any distributions of 
          the data.
          
          The data reported are all from down-casts with the exception of stations 10, 115 
          and 125 (all cast 1), which are up-casts. The up-cast was used for Station 10 
          cast 1 because the down-cast had significantly more noise/gaps than the up-cast. 
          Station 115 cast 1 down-cast had one large 280-decibar data gap, and the up-cast 
          was fine. Station 125 cast 1 down-cast had several large data gaps (40-300+ 
          decibars) which were not recoverable from analog tape, the up-cast was recovered 
          with no gaps and without the signal-noise problems experienced shipboard.
          
          Other casts with notable problems are as follows: Station 10 cast 1 up-cast, 
          although better than the down-cast, has 1% missing data; its largest 
          interpolated gap is 5 consecutive levels. Station 35 cast 1 down-cast was 
          recorded from 14 decibars in-the-water; the up-cast showed this area to be 
          within a good mixed layer. The down-cast, with the surface levels extrapolated, 
          was used because of the benefit of using down-casts for oxygen processing. 
          Station 11 cast 2 had many gaps: 5% of its data, including one 50-decibar gap, 
          were missing and interpolated. Its down-cast was used because the up-cast was 
          just as bad. Station 112 cast 1 also had gapping problems: 4%of its data were 
          missing and interpolated, much of it concentrated in one 110-decibar gap. In 
          general, missing data levels have been extrapolated/interpolated. All pertinent 
          comments/problems from shipboard and post-processing notes are documented in the 
          CTD Processing Notes (Appendix A).
          
          Most gaps in Oceanus 202 CTD data were caused by signal interruption between the 
          CTD and shipboard equipment, i.e. from slip ring and/or end termination 
          problems. When possible, missing data were recovered from the raw data 
          (videotape) backup, i.e. when the problems were caused by deck unit 
          maladjustment. Low recording volume on the video backup prevented data recovery 
          for the Station 125 down cast.
          
          The 0-decibar level of some casts was extrapolated using a quadratic fit through 
          the next three deeper levels. Recorded surface values have been rejected only 
          when it is fairly obvious that the drift is due to the sensors adjusting to the 
          in-water transition; if there is any doubt or a possibility that the data is 
          real, it is left alone. Extrapolated surface levels, as well as other single 
          interpolated levels which fill in for missing data, are documented in the CTD 
          Processing Notes. The interpolated levels for the three stations with multiple 
          problems, mentioned above, are documented in the CTD Processing Notes (Appendix 
          A).
          
          During post-cruise conductivity data calibrations it was noticed that there was 
          an apparent +0.002 conductivity offset in the deep data for some stations. This 
          apparent offset appeared in both the down-casts and up-casts for the affected 
          stations. A similar phenomenon has been noticed before in this and other CTDs 
          where the raw conductivity value crosses from 32.768 to 32.767, that is, when 
          the most significant bit in the 16 bit number is turned off. On some stations, a 
          -0.002 shift back appears yet deeper, where the raw conductivity value crosses 
          back over to 32.767 from the other direction. This problem indicates need for 
          instrument service. It is most noticeable in Atlantic Ocean data because this 
          particular conductivity "crossover" value typically occurs in deep water, where 
          salinity is fairly stable over many hundreds of meters.
          
          There were various winch, wire and rosette problems throughout the cruise. This 
          resulted in numerous stops, pauses or yoyos during casts. Only the most 
          significant of these have been noted. As mentioned above, these severe changes 
          in the lowering rate can affect oxygen data in particular.
          
          
          
          4.   DATA TABLES AND PLOTS 
          
          4.1.   STATION AND CAST DESCRIPTION 
          
          Latitudes and longitudes were read from the ship's navigation system. The "Start 
          Up" time is the time (GMT) at the beginning of the CTD up cast. The bottom depth 
          was read from the PGR, and corrected according to Carter Tables (Carter, 1980). 
          The value (in meters) in the column "DAB" (Distance above bottom) was obtained 
          from the PGR, unless the "Comments" column reports altimeter, as was the ocean 
          depth. If one adds the reported distance above bottom to the maximum sampling 
          depth (reported in the CTD data) to calculate the ocean depth, there is often a 
          difference, due to the difference in method of measurement of maximum sampling 
          depth versus ocean depth. Also note that the maximum sampling depth is 
          calculated from the corrected CTD data since the deepest bottle may not have 
          been closed at the deepest CTD sampling point. If less than 24 bottles were 
          sampled, the number of samples taken are reported in the comments. The 
          complementary programs are reported in the "Samples" column.
          
          
          4.2.  TABULAR DATA, CTD AND NISKIN BOTTLE
          
          Station numbers are consecutive from the beginning to end of the crime, without 
          interruption, except for two unreported test stations. Cast numbers are 
          consecutive at each station, including aborted casts. However, at stations 61, 
          62, and 63, the second cast took place during reoccupations about 18 hours to 4 
          days later. Meteorological data were collected by the shies officers and were 
          copied from the Oceanus Bridge Log.
          
          The headings in both the CTD data and NISKIN bottle data have been abbreviated 
          to PRESS, TEMP, and O2 for pressure (decibars), temperature (degrees Celsius), 
          and oxygen (milliliters per liter). In the CTD data listings, specific volume 
          anomaly (centiliters/ton) was abbreviated SVA and calculated according to 
          Millero et al. (1980) and Fofonoff et al. (1983), Dynamic Height (dynamic 
          meters) to DYN HT, (Sverdrup et al, 1942), Sound Velocity (meter per second) to 
          SVEL, (Chen and Millero, 1977), Vaisala Frequency (cycles per hour) to VAIS FREQ 
          which uses a subroutine by Bob Millard modified by Lynne Talley to incorporate 
          Gaussian weighting after formulation of Breck Owens and N. P. Fofonoff. In the 
          bottle data listings, the headings have been abbreviated to O2 SAT, (Weiss, 
          1970), SIO3, PO4, NO3, and NO2 for oxygen saturation (percent saturation), 
          silicate, phosphate, nitrate, and nitrite (micromoles/liter), respectively. 
          Density anomalies in sigma-notation follow the usual practice; e.g. sigma-theta 
          (or sigma-0) is the potential density in kg/m3 referenced to pressure=0, from 
          which 1000 has been subtracted. Potential temperature, theta, (degrees celsius) 
          has been calculated according to Fofonoff (1977) and Bryden (1973) and depth 
          (meters) by Saunders (1981) and Mantyla (1982-1983).
          
          Throughout the battle data report alphabetic characters may be found in the 
          tabular data. These characters have the following meaning.
          
            D   A salinity value, tormally (default) from a bottle sample, 
                has been taken from CTD records.
          
            U   A data value is suspect, although no obvious reason has been found.
          
          Comments and investigation of these values are reported in APPENDIX B
          
          
          4.3.  STATION PLOTS
          
          The hydrographic station plots provide a visualization of the data that is not 
          possible from listings. For each station, the upper plots are CTD data, the 
          lower two plots are bottle data.
          
          
          4.4.  VERTICAL SECTIONS
          
          The vertical sections were contributed by Mizuki Tsuchiya and Lynne Talley and 
          are being published by Tsuchiya, Talley and McCartney (1991). The potential 
          temperature, salinity and potential density sections are based on CTD data. Note 
          for the potential density section that sigma-theta is contoured on the 0-1500 
          meter panel, while sigma2 is contoured from 0-3000 meters and sigma4 is 
          contoured from 3000-6000 meters on the full-depth panel. The oxygen, silica, 
          nitrate and phosphate sections are band on discrete data; the CTD profiles were 
          used to resolve some difficulties in contouring oxygen.

          7.  CHLOROFLUOROCARBON ANALYSIS METHODS
              (John Bullister) 
          
          Specially designed 2 liter water sample bottles were used on the cruise
          to reduce CFC contamination.  These bottles have a modified end-cap
          design to minimize the contact of the water sample with the end-cap
          O-rings after closing.  The O-rings used in these water sample bottles
          were vacuum-baked prior to the first station. Stainless steel springs
          covered with an epoxy powder coat were used inside the bottles (instead
          of elastic tubing) used close the bottles.
          
          Water samples for CFC analysis were usually the first samples collected
          from the 2 liter bottles.  Care was taken to co-ordinate the sampling
          of CFCs with other samples to minimize the time between the initial
          opening of each bottle and the completion of sample drawing.  In most
          cases, dissolved oxygen, helium/tritium and nutrient samples were
          collected within several minutes of the initial opening of each
          bottle.  To minimize contact with air, the CFC samples were drawn
          directly through the stopcocks of the 2 liter bottles into 100 ml
          precision glass syringes equipped with 2-way metal stopcocks.  The
          syringes were immersed in a holding tank of clean surface seawater
          until analyses.
          
          For air sampling, a ~100 meter length of 3/8" OD Dekaron tubing was run
          from the analytical system to the bow of the ship.  Air was sucked
          through this line using an Air Cadet pump.  The air was compressed in
          the pump, with the downstream pressure held at about 1.5 atm using a
          back-pressure regulator.  A tee allowed a flow (~100 cc/min) of the
          compressed air to be directed to the gas sample valves, while the bulk
          flow of the air (>7 liter/minute) was vented through the back pressure
          regulator.
          
          Concentrations of CFC-11 and CFC-12 in air samples, seawater and gas
          standards on the cruise were measured by shipboard electron capture gas
          chromatography (EC-GC), using the techniques described by Bullister and
          Weiss (1988).  For seawater analyses, a ~30-ml aliquot of seawater from
          the glass syringe was transferred into the glass sparging chamber.  The
          dissolved CFCs in the seawater sample were extracted by passing a
          supply of CFC-free purge gas through the sparging chamber for a period
          of 4 minutes at ~70 cc/min.  Water vapor was removed from the purge gas
          while passing through a short tube of magnesium perchlorate desiccant.
          The sample gases were concentrated on a cold-trap consisting of a
          2-inch section of 1/8-inch stainless steel tubing packed with Porasil C
          (80-100 mesh) backed by a 2 inch section packed with Porapak T (80-100
          mesh) immersed in a bath of isopropanol held at -20 degrees C.  After 4
          minutes of purging the seawater sample, the sparging chamber was closed
          and the trap isolated.  The dewer full of cold isopropanol was removed
          and the trap was submerged into a dewar of boiling water.  The sample
          gases held in the trap were then injected onto a precolumn (12 inches
          of 1/8-inch O.D. stainless steel tubing packed with 80-100 mesh
          Porasil C, held at 90 degrees C), for the initial separation of the
          CFCs and other rapidly eluting gases from more slowly eluting
          compounds.  The CFCs then passed into the main analytical column (10
          feet, 1/8-inch stainless steel tubing packed with Porasil C 80-100
          mesh, held at 90 degrees C), and then into the EC detector.
          
          The CFC analytical system was calibrated frequently using standard gas
          of known CFC composition.  Gas sample loops of known volume were
          thoroughly flushed with standard gas and injected into the system.  The
          temperature and pressure were recorded so that the amount of gas
          injected could be calculated.  The procedures used to transfer the
          standard gas to the trap, precolumn, main chromatographic column and EC
          detector were similar to those used for analyzing water samples.  Two
          sizes of gas sample loops were present in the analytical system.
          Multiple injections of these loop volumes could be done to allow the
          system to be calibrated over a relatively wide range of CFC
          concentrations.  Air samples and system blanks (injections of loops of
          CFC-free gas) were injected and analyzed in a similar manner.  The
          typical analysis time for seawater, air, standard and blank samples was
          about 8 minutes.
          
          Concentrations of CFC-11 and CFC-12 in air, seawater samples and gas
          standards are reported relative to the SIO93 calibration scale
          (Cunnold, et. al., 1994).  CFC concentrations in air and standard gas
          are reported in units of mole fraction CFC in dry gas, and are
          typically in the parts-per-trillion (ppt) range.  Dissolved CFC
          concentrations are given in units of picomoles of CFC per kg seawater
          (pmol/kg).  CFC concentrations in air and seawater samples were
          determined by fitting their chromatographic peak areas to multi-point
          calibration curves, generated by injecting multiple sample loops of gas
          from a CFC working standard (cylinder 9944) into the analytical
          instrument.  The concentrations of CFC-11 and CFC-12 in this working
          standard were calibrated before and after the cruise versus a primary
          standard (36743) (Bullister, 1984).  No measurable drift in the
          concentrations of CFC-11 and CFC-12 in the working standard could be
          detected during this interval.  Full range calibration curves were run
          at intervals of ~ 3 days during the cruise.  Single injections of a
          fixed volume of standard gas at one atmosphere were run much more
          frequently (at intervals of 1 to 2 hours) to monitor short term changes
          in detector sensitivity.
          
          The small volume (~2 liter) water sampling bottles were designed and
          constructed prior to this cruise because of the small rosette package
          used.  The inner surfaces of the bottles may not have had adequate time
          to desorb any excess levels of CFCs present in the PVC pipe used to
          construct the bottles, and this may have contributed to the relatively
          high and variable CFC-11 blanks observed in some samples.
          CFC blanks were estimated from samples collected in regions where low
          or CFC-free water was expected.  Measured CFC-12 concentrations were
          consistently low and near the detection limit for depths between
          2000-4000 meters from 30N -14N, and these samples were used to
          estimate the mean CFC blanks for the expedition.  A CFC-12 blank
          correction of 0.001 pmol/kg was applied to the entire cruise.  The
          CFC-11 blanks were higher and more variable with an average of ~0.06
          pmol/kg (see listing of replicate samples given at the end of this
          report).  In some cases, applying these blank corrections to low
          concentration samples yields negative reported concentrations.
          
          On this expedition, we estimate precisions (1 standard deviation) to be
          the greater of about 0.018 pmol/kg or 1.8% for dissolved CFC-11 and
          0.004 pmol/kg or 1.5% for CFC-12.
          
          A number of water samples had clearly anomolous CFC-11 and/or CFC-12
          concentrations relative to adjacent samples.  These anomolous samples
          appeared to occur more or less randomly during the cruise, and were not
          clearly associated with other features in the water column (eg.
          elevated oxygen concentrations, salinity or temperature features,
          etc.).  This suggests that the high values were due to individual,
          isolated low-level CFC contamination events. These samples are included 
          in this report and are give a quality flag of either 3 (questionable 
          measurement) or 4 (bad measurement).  A total of ~116 analyses of CFC-11 
          were assigned a flag of 3 and ~46 analyses of CFC-12 were assigned a flag 
          of 3. A total of ~112 analyses of CFC-11 were assigned a flag of 4 and ~89 
          CFC-12 samples assigned a flag of 4.
          
          In addition to the file of mean CFC concentrations reported for each
          water sample in the data tables (keyed to the unique station: sample
          ID), tables of the following are included in this report:
          
          
          TABLE 1a. A16N Replicate dissolved CFC-11 analyses
          TABLE 1b. A16N Replicate dissolved CFC-12 analyses

          TABLE 3.  A16N CFC air measurements (interpolated to station locations)
          
          
          A value of -9.0 is used for missing values in the listings.

          APPENDIX B:  REMARKS FOR DELETED OR MISSING SAMPLES 
          
          Investigation of data may include comparison of bottle salinity and oxygen with 
          CTD data, review of data plots of station profile and adjoining stations. CTD 
          data is reported instead of bottle salinity when the comments refer to deleted 
          salinity samples or no samples. There was a problem with the shies wire which 
          caused many of the tripping problems. There was also a problem with temperature 
          control in the van where the salinity analysis occurred. This caused many of the 
          problems with salinity. Extra levels may occur for each station. These levels 
          were extracted from CTD data for purposes of reporting deepest sampling level.
          
          Station 001
          
               106-17  Sample log: No salinity or oxygen per sampling schedule. 
                       Duplicates @ 120db include water samples; therefore CTD trip 
                       information for these 12 bottles deleted. No nutrients or 
                       freon sampled.
                  119  delta-S .006 @ 120db, sample high as compared with duplicate 
                       samples. Oxygen agrees with CTD and duplicates. Suspect 
                       salinity problem with drawing or analysis. Delete salinity 
                       sample (35.139).
                  120  Sample log: No salinity or oxygen per sampling schedule. 
                       Duplicates @ 120db that include water samples; therefore CTD 
                       trip information deleted. No nutrients or freon sampled.
          
          STATION 003
          
                  102  Sample log: Not closed, no water. Level not included in data tables, 
                       not necessary duplicate @8db.
                  119  delta-S @820db is .059. Salinity was 35.110, salt bottle #3813. Oxygen 
                       fits station profile. Bottle could have leaked, salinity and oxygen 
                       value could fit higher in the water column, but for now, will assume 
                       that there was only a problem with salinity. Delete salinity value.
          
          STATION 004
          
                  117  delta-S @810db is .060. Salinity was 35.065, salt bottle #3636. 
                       Appears to be a sampling error, value close to shallower 
                       level. Oxygen agrees with station profile- Delete salinity 
                       value leave oxygen 
                  124  Sample log: Bottle drained before salinity was sampled. CTD 
                       salinity @ 1246db reported.
          
          STATION 005
          
                  122  delta-S @ 1293db is .0060. Salinity is 34.993; salt bottle 
                       #3526. The first inclination was to leave salinity data; 
                       there are salinity changes reflected in CTD data. Salinity @ 
                       1293db shows slight deviation from the distribution at 
                       adjoining stations. - M. Tsuchiya. After further review and 
                       from the comments by M. Tsuchiya; delete salinity value.

          CTD DATA CONSISTENCY CHECK
          
          The WHP-Exchange format bottle and/or CTD data from this cruise have been 
          examined by a computer application for contents and consistency. The parameters 
          found for the files are listed, a check is made to see if all CTD files for this 
          cruise contain the same CTD parameters, a check is made to see if there is a 
          one-to-one correspondence between bottle station numbers and CTD station 
          numbers, a check is made to see that pressures increase through each file for 
          each station, and a check is made to locate multiple casts for the same station 
          number in the bottle data. Results of those checks are reported in this 
          '_check.txt' file.
          
          When both bottle and CTD data are available, the CTD salinity data (and, if 
          available, CTD oxygen data) reported in the bottle data file are subtracted from 
          the corresponding bottle data and the differences are plotted for the entire 
          cruise. Those plots are not available for this cruise

                    read off several years ago, but none of them have the A16 (MCTT) 
                    documentation and so I suspect it is on one of the existing 9-
                    tracks, which we no longer can read since there is no equipment 
                    here to do it.  so it will have to be typed or scanned in. Lynne

          03/13/00  Sandborn     BTL              Update Needed; See note:
                    Because of the problems that were found in the distribution of 
                    OCEANUS 202 on the WHPO site, I am proposing to send John 
                    Bullister the data transmittal file that ODF has in it's archives.  
                    I have reformatted the file to be similar to the WHP format.
                      Differences are:
                        CTDTMP ODF file is to 3 decimal places
                        THETA  ODF file is to 3 decimal places
                        SALNTY ODF file is to 3 decimal place
                        QUALTI ODF file has no coding
                    I believe my solution will assist John and not hold up his data 
                    submission.  I had reviewed the WHPO data file with ODF data file 
                    and was at a point that  I could easily have added the bottle 
                    numbers.  I opted not to do that because of the pressure 
                    differences.  If it is not a problem that the temperature and 
                    salinity are reported to thousandths and someone at WHPO must add 
                    the data coding, then all is good.  I tried to download the "raw" 
                    data files and create a WHP format report.  Unfortunately, some of 
                    the archive tapes were unreadable. 
                    
                    Listed below are problems that I found in the WHPO file.
                    1. The pressures in the WHPO file are off by ~5db at ~4000db.  The 
                       pressures are also reported to tenths, the current transmittal 
                       file reports the pressure to whole values.
                       >> I was able to cut and paste in the pressures to tenths from 
                          an ODF file.
                    2. Theta is calculated to 4 decimal places. ODF's current file is 
                       to 3 decimal places.
                    3. The oxygen and nutrients do not match ODF files. It appears 
                       that WHPO converted liter units to kilograms and this accounts for 
                       the difference.
                    4. There are added levels, one at the bottom evidently from the 
                       CTD data. Some stations have extra levels also appears to be from 
                       the CTD that are not in ODF's current data set. 
                       >>I was able to add these extra levels from an ODF file.
                    5. The WHPO file has lost part of Station 122 and all of Stations 
                       123-129. 
                       >> These are in the file sent to John.
                    6. It appears that the data on the WHPO was from an older 
                       distribution of the data. Fortunately, it appears that there were 
                       no major changes in the data that is archived by ODF other than 
                       the added levels. Unfortunately, the conversion from depth to 
                       pressure was done incorrectly and the conversion from liters to 
                       kilograms resulted in differences. This conversion resulted in 
                       data that was reasonable unlike pressure.

                      (e.g. sample #01 was called 201, not same nomenclature as hyd 
                      file) on stations 11, 61, 62, 63, 65 (all cast 2).

                    *** Ran ~danie/tools/wocecvt on updated bottle file. (2000.08.15 SRA)
                    *** NOTE: SANBORN bottle data file and CFC data file both had data 
                              for station 11 cast 02, but WHOI .sum file only listed 
                              station 11 cast 01 (no cast 02).  Will leave as is and 
                              document.

                    accompanying the file:
                    • Reformatted to conform with the accepted WHPO format.
                    • Latitude and longitude minutes were xx.x changed to xx.x0.

          12/20/01  Uribe        CTD              Website Updated  EXCHANGE File Added
                    CTD has been converted to exchange using the new code and put 
                    online. Sumfile has a station 11 cast 2 and CTDs have a file for a 
                    station 11 cast 1 only. For this reason and for the purpose of the 
                    conversion, the 2 was made a 1 to allow for the code  to work.
