CalCOFI 1104SH CTD Cast Notes:

Cast 1 = Cast 31; CalCOFI was the second leg of the 2011 Spring CalCOFI/DEPM cruise. NOAA Fisheries had performed 30 stations prior to our first CTD station so
order-occupied was continued for their book-keeping.

Cast 31 - 36 had a problem with the primary conductivity sensor discovered after the first salts were run on day 2. Different salinity offsets were applied to
the primary CTD salinities 31-35, 36, and 37-114. After cast 36, the conductivity sensor was replaced; casts 31-36 were processed with different xmlcon files
than 37-114 for this reason.

Cast 35+ - bottom depths off charts since bottom sounder isn't working below ~500m

MBARI-ISUS nitrate sensor had problems detecting nitrate values below 2M/L this cruise. Post-cruise investigation by MGS & Satlantic found that lamp replacement was necessary.

Console Ops Notes:

Cast 32 - winch operator started bringing the CTD back up immediately after he was told "stop". Yo-yo'd back down to ~15m (SCCOOS).
Cast 34 - switched out Deck Unit in hopes of rectifying rs232 problem. Salinity sensors disagree by ~0.6PSU.
Cast 35 - error light flashing on deck unit, primary conductivity low
Cast 36 - -0.250 pressure offset applied precast; deck pressure kind of high
Cast 37 - new conductivity sensor installed (#3568)
Cast 39 - bottle #9 mistrip
Casts 40-44 numbering changed to match NOAA Fisheries order occupied; trawls = 40, 41, 44; subsequent CTD casts numbered to match NOAA order occupied. 
	cast 40 renumbered to cast 42
	cast 41 renumbered to cast 43
	cast 42 renumbered to cast 45
	cast 43 renumbered to cast 46
	cast 44 renumbered to cast 47
Cast 43 - primary & secondary oxygen sensors disagree by ~0.03-0.05
Cast 46 - primary & secondary oxygen sensors disagree by ~0.05
Cast 47 - restarted after winch failure at 50m; CTD returned to surface, cast restarted; unusual 'feature' around 280-310m downcast.
Cast 48 - event log lat-lon not changing
Cast 50 - bottle 3 replaced
Cast 51 - severe wire angle, 580m of wire out to reach 515m
Cast 52 - CTD sent back down to get 78m, yo-yo'd - 86>70>78>70>63...
Cast 56 - moderate seas - big ship rolls
Cast 58 - file initially named improperly, resulting in loss of downcast; upcast good
Cast 61 - 3 trawls before cast
Cast 66 - trawled onto station; winch could not go down faster than ~35m/min; worked fine on upcast
Cast 73 - Santa Monica Basin; shallower than normal at ~700m; 24 bottles closed
Cast 74 - shallow ~30m nutricline & thermocline
Cast 80 - three chl maxes
Cast 84 - downcast & upcast different especially in upper 50m
Cast 86 - bottle 17 open upon retrieval
Cast 87 - unusual salinity & oxygen feature at ~180m
Cast 88 - winch problem on downcast at ~480m; stopped then down to 515m; weather calm
Cast 92 - strong deep current below ~380m
Cast 94 - windy, big swell and rolls
Cast 98 - deep 40m SCCOOS station; ship refused to go shallower
Cast 99 - Santa Barbara Basin station
Cast 102 - on downcast ~450m O2 & NO3 up, T & S down - feature
Cast 109 - 200m bottle closed at 220m by mistake
