               Babin, an associate of Dr. Rabalais.

data/0-data/LAH2005.mdb - An MS Access database file that contains the data.
                            
data/0-data/LA_Hypoxia_Surveys_2005.txt - A plain ASCII/text file that contains

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

data/1-data/N05StationList.txt - These six plain ASCII/text files were created
data/1-data/N05Hydrolab.txt      from the six tables in the MS Access database
data/1-data/N05Pigments.txt      by using the export function in the database.
data/1-data/N05Nutrients.txt     The first part of each file name is the name of
data/1-data/N05SPM.txt           the table in the database (e.g., N05SPM.txt is
data/1-data/N05CTD.txt           from the N05SPM table).  A header row is followed
                                 by the data rows.  The columns are separated by
                                 pipes (i.e., "|").
