BCO-DMO Processing Notes
CSV file generated by Doug Mackie from original spreadsheet PRR_data_for_DATA_SET.xls

Notes from CSV file generated by Doug Mackie:
Underwater irradiance was examined by a radiometer PRR600 (Biospherical Instruments)
Euphotic zone is defined as depth at which irradience is 1% at seasurface.
Data in a separate table before PAR table (see euphotic zone dataset)

 BCO-DMO Edits
- Parameter names modified to conform to BCO-DMO convention
- lat/lon added in from stations location data
