2001-10-24 16:30aanderaatime2Fixed problem with Aanderaa time stamp
2001-10-25 16:30aanderaatime2Aanderaa current meter data still problematic...
2001-11-01 16:04aanderaatime2Aanderaa current meter data being patched, appears ok...
2001-12-16 00:00sbe37ALL20Inductive modem data beginning to get intermittent.
2002-01-10 00:00sbe37ALL20Inductive modem data from microcat has become very erratic.
2002-01-26 00:00aanderaaALL2Temperature data started to become erratic, followed by current speed and direction.
2002-03-26 15:00ALLALL Recovered, R/V Argo Maine
2002-04-13 17:00metwind_direction-4Magnetic variation applied to wind direction; all wind directions are now relative to true north.


Notes: Sensors highlighted in red indicate problems with this sensor during deployment. Depth is measured relative to the ocean surface with positive depths indicating depths below the ocean surface. Negative depths are heights above the surface. In the case of doppler current measurements, the depth indicates depth of first measurement:delta-depth:depth of last measurement. For instance, 10:4:106 represents currents measured every 4 meters from 10 meters down to 106 meters (28 depths in all).
