Source: These data were downloaded from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis 
        Center (CDIAC): http://cdiac.ornl.gov/ftp/oceans/NACP_East_Coast_Cruise/

Action(s): The original data files were transferred to the directory of data/0-data/.
           NODC personnel extracted the longitude and latitude data, and plotted
           a sampling station map. Both the generated longitude latitude file and 
           the sampling station map are saved in the directory of about/. NODC 
           personnel converted all the .xls files under the directory of data/0-data/ 
           to .csv files, and saved them in their corresponding folders under 
           data/1-data/.

Files:

about/
This directory contains files generated by NODC with ancillary information about the 
data submission.

0083633_lonlat.txt - Contains sample locations for these data.  Each row
                     contains the geographical position where these data were
                     collected (longitude in the left column and latitude in the
                     right column, both in degrees).  NODC may have corrected
                     geographic positions that seemed to be in error when
                     generating this file.  However, NODC did not change the
                     original data files under the directory data/0-data/.

data/0-data/
This directory contains the original files that were downloaded from CDIAC. 

data/1-data/
This directory contains data and metadata files that were converted by NODC from 
their originally submitted format to an archival format.
