Detailed Notes
HE/TR (A06/A07):

He/Tr file is in: a06/original/TRACERS_19990311/WOCE_A6A7.dat and it's a CSV file.

CFC: in a06 & a07 (in original) under 2002_KLEIN A6hy.txt & A7hy.txt

Here's what Birgit had to say about these data:

a6: the bottle data files we used and the one at your side are identical. The CFC data (F11,F12) are from a french group, we have notified them for minor changes we made to the quality flags. The quality byte 2 now contains the revised quality flags for f11 and f12. We also controlled the tritium and helium data set for this cruise. But it seems they have not been submitted to you yet. I will write to Jean-Baptiste and ask him, if he wants to submit the data. The helium data for this cruise turned out to be very poor quality and we have flaged them 3 for the entire data set anyway.

a7: the same comments as for a6. the bottle data files we used and the one at your side are identical. The CFC data (F11,F12) are from a french group, we have notified them for minor changes we made to the quality flags. The quality byte 2 now contains the revised quality flags for f11 and f12. We also controlled the tritium and helium data set for this cruise. But it seems they have not been submitted to you yet. I will write to Jean-Baptiste and ask him, if he wants to submit the data.

2001/09/05 Uribe, K. CTD Update Needed Yes CTD files have bad OXYGEN values, see note:

Detailed Notes
Email from Andreas Thurnherr indicates 5 CTD files of the WOCE A07 section have ranges of erroneous oxygen values. In those files (stations 000, 007, 068, 069, 075) some or all oxygen data appear to be replaced by (rounded) temperature data. Both the original and the exchange formats are affected. This problem has not been addressed at this time.


Date Entered Person Data Type Data Status Public Summary
2001/07/19 Thurnherr, A. CTD Update Needed Yes Incorrect pressure values

Detailed Notes
I have noticed that the CTD files of the WOCE A07 section have erroneous pressure values of 2222dbar instead of 2220dbar. E.g. station 007 contains the following records

press temp salin O2 nobs qual
----------------------------------------------
...
2219.0 3.2740 34.9430 244.3 1 2222
2222.0 3.2730 34.9430 244.2 1 2222
2221.0 3.2710 34.9430 244.2 1 2222
2222.0 3.2680 34.9420 244.5 1 2222
2223.0 3.2650 34.9420 244.7 1 2222
...

All stations therefore have double records at 2222dbar with the exception of the following list

000 002 004 006 037 075 081 091 093
001 003 005 027 054 079 090 092 115

Both the original and the the exchange format are affected.

1999/11/16 Bartolacci, D. SUM Data Update Yes See note:

Detailed Notes
As per Dave's notes below, I have corrected the A07 sumfile, time/date stamped it and placed it back out on the web. As far as I know, these two errors in hemisphere were the only things in question.

1999/11/16 Muus, D. SUM Data Update Yes See note:

Detailed Notes
The A07 summary file problem brought to our attention by the US Coast Guard Academy is two typographic errors in the original French data:

Stations 51 and 72 EN longitudes should be "W" instead of "E".

The BE and BO longitudes for these stations are correct ("W").

The web site should be corrected and this could be added to any errata that may be planned for CDROMs.
