CalCOFI 1110NH CTD Cast Notes:

1110NH CTD Sensor ConfigurationMBARI-ISUS nitrate sensor had problems detecting nitrate values below 5µM/L this cruise. There was a problem with the ISUS sensor's low end NO3 detection. ISUS was unable to measure NO3 < 5uM/l. ISUS was sent before this cruise to Satlantic but there was still issues updating the instrument's calibration. ISUS measurements above 5 uM/l look okay.
The SBE 18 pH sensor was also behaving poorly, data suspect or bad; sent in for servicing post-cruise. Cruise was originally processed in 2012 by MGS, updated in 2017 by JRW.

Console Ops CTD Operator Notes:
Cast 001 sta 93.3 26.7: primary cond and O2 funky - O2 funky because primary cond but secondary O2 cal coeffs are wrong too. 1110001.con has incorrect coefficients so this was corrected post-cast, replacing the bad con file.

Cast 002 st 93.4 26.4: lots of lobster pots around the ship

Cast 003 sta 91.7 26.4: sample log calculated sta is 91.9 not 91.7

Cast 004 sta 93.3 28.0: winch brake issues @ 328m

Cast 005 sta 93.3 30.0: Isus values seem wrong Max ~10um @515m; lost pH signal

Cast 006 sta 93.3 35.0: 22 bottle prodo sta, no notes

Cast 007 sta 93.3 40.0: nothing noted

Cast 019 sta 90.0 110.0: 23 bottle prodo sta, bottle #19 & #20 dupicate tripped for insurance

Cast 033 sta 86.7 33.0: 69m 13 bottle prodo station; bottle #9 didn't close so sent back down, bottle #13 = 10m

Cast 034 sta 86.8 32.5: 35m SCCOOS station; cable overwrap problem, had to go down again - yo-yo'd
