Source:   Original data was collected as part of the response to the MC252
         Deepwater Horizon oil spill event.  The data was provided to the
         Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU) in accordance with documentation
         provided by the SMU in "Guidance for Shipboard Data Management
         Coordinator".

Actions: The original data were copied into the data/0-data/ directory.
         Subsequent processing was performed on the CTD data set at the
         National Coastal Data Development Center using Sea-Bird SEASOFT
         software (http://www.seabird.com/software/softrev.htm) as documented
         below:
         - Steps to Process CTD data
         - Steps to Reprocess CTD data for upcasts and bottles
         - Steps to Reprocess CTD data including the wild-edit option

         Processed data (bin-averaged ASCII files) were transformed into NetCDF
         format.

         All transformed data were then copied into the data/1-data/ directory.

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

DWH_JF_Cruise03.xml -
  Metadata record for the archived data, in Federal Geographic Data Committee
  (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (FGDC-STD-001-1998)
  XML format with remote sensing extensions.

DWH_JF_Cruise03_processedCTD_NODC.xml -
  Instrument level metadata record for the archived data, in Federal Geographic
  Data Committee (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata
  (FGDC-STD-001-1998) XML format with remote sensing extensions.

CTD_Process_CTD_Data.pdf -
  These document describes the steps used by NCDDC personnel to process the
  data in the ctd/ directory.

JF_Cruise_03.md5 -
  This file lists all the files submitted by the data provider to NODC along
  with the MD5 has value for each file, to enable validation of the content of
  the files.

0069074_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/.

0069074_map.jpg -
  Sample location map for these data.

dirinfo.txt -
  A text file, which contains the ship's call sign and cruise ID of data
  collection, to facilitate NODC's online dissemination of this data set.

plugin-SMU+Data+Management+Guidance+v4_04.pdf -
  This document provides guidance to research vessel data managers to fulfill
  Area Commands data management requirements and data specifications including
  deliverables, data flow, information management and data specifications.  By
  ensuring consistency between vessels, cruises and samples of recorded
  datasets, post sampling processing and analysis can be accelerated.

data/0-data/
This directory contains the data files as submitted to NOAA by various ships in
accordance with SMU Guidance.  Various levels of compliance with SMU guidance
were achieved, with increased compliance over time.  Some data may be in
Sea-Bird proprietary formats (e.g., hexadecimal files).  There is little or no
precise documentation as to shipboard processing steps.

data/1-data
This directory contains the data files processed at NODC/NCDDC in accordance
with documented standards.  Sea-Bird hexadecimal files processed with SEASOFT
software and transformed to NetCDF are in this directory.  Documentation or
processing specifications is provided in the about/ directory for reference.
