BCO-DMO Processing Notes
Generated from original file UNDERWAYSF6.xls
provided on the Deep-Sea Research II 48 (2001) accompanying CD-Rom

BCO-DMO Edits
- Parameter names modified to conform to BCO-DMO convention
- date/time formatted to BCO-DMO convention
- lon/lat converted from degs min.decimal min to decimal degrees
- original spreadsheet had mix of data in columns
- made two columns (SF6 and Corr fM) by cutting and pasting
- generated two separate spreadsheets. One for SF6 and one for Corr fM data.
