Please note that these data files are FINAL, bottle-corrected CTD data files.
Final CTD data are available after all CalCOFI 1304SH bottle data have been 
thoroughly point-checked. 
1304SH_CTDFinal.zip is distributed along with raw, unprocessed cast files. 
Eighty CTD stations were occupied 06 - 30 Apr 2013 on NOAA RV Bell M Shimada. 
Please refer to the 1304SH cruise summary, CTD Data Processing web pages & CTD 
hdr files for sensors-measurements collected and Seasoft modules applied. 
CTD data have been processed using Seabird's data processing suite, following their 
recommended methods for the SBE911+. Bottle corrected data are also included which 
improves the oxygen (SBE43) data quality, estimate nitrate data using ISUS 
measurements, & estimated chlorophyll from fluorometer voltages. 
Other sensors such as transmissometer are included but data quality control steps 
are not performed. Please refer to the metadata folder for bottle vs CTD sensor 
comparisons, regression coefficients and combined up and downcast csvs.
Please also note that these data were reprocessed in 2017 to update the final data
format, adding data quality code columns.
