GFI CTD

1. DESCRIPTION

This manual page describes how to create CODAS databases from CTD data files and bottle samples, with emphasis on the instrumentation at GFI.

2. LOADING CTD DATA

The following input format with corresponding utilities are implemented:

• NODC (see load_ctd(1))
• WOHI (see load_ctd(1))
• WOCE (see load_ctd(1))
• C78 (see load_ctd(1))
• SBE (see load_sbe(1))
• ODF (see load_odf(1))

Post-processed CTD SeaSoar data acquired with xacq on M/S Hâkon Mosby are in C78 format. To load processed CTD data aquired with SeaBird's SEASOFT package, use scan_sbe(1) and load_sbe(1). The former is used to check the syntax in header files for use in the latter.

3. LOADING BOTTLE SAMPLES

Loading bottle samples can be performed with load_btl(1) and load_sbe(1). For bottle samples acquired with with SeaBird's SEASOFT package, use load_sbe(1).
