Quality The raw data recorded in the WHOI Seabird and RDI instruments were downloaded onto PC's at sea and basic processing started during the cruises and completed at WHOI after post-cruise calibration data were obtained.
Use Constraints Any person making substantial use of a data set must communicate with the investigators who acquired the data prior to publication and anticipate that the data collectors will be co-authors of published results. This extends to model results and to data organized for retrospective studies.

The data here are intended for scholarly use by the academic and scientific community, with the express understanding that any such use will properly acknowledge the originating investigator.
