Merged bottle and nutrient data from R/V Thomas G. Thompson cruises TT007, TT008, TT011, TT012 in the Equatorial Pacific in 1992 during the U.S. JGOFS Equatorial Pacific (EqPac) projectset by J. Murray, x identifies problems with the data quality reported at that level(mis-trips, suspect salinity, etc) See 'PI-Notes on Quality' link. q_code

Two decibar-averaged CTD profiles from the Hawaii Ocean Time-Series cruises from 1988-2016 (HOT project)Quality (defined by investigator); The quality word is the left-to-right concatenation of required quality bytes for the variables measured. They are defined as follows: 1 = Not calibrated with water samples; 2 = Acceptable measurement; 3 = Questionable measurement; 4 = Bad measurement; 5 = Not reported; 6 = Interpolated value; 7 = Not assigned for CTD data; 8 = Not assigned for CTD data; 9 = Not sampled QUALT1

Thorium 234 activity in particulate and dissolved phases from R/V Atlantis II cruises AII-119-4, AII-119-5 in the North Atlantic in 1989 (U.S. JGOFS NABE project)originator assigned quality code Highest confidence level = a (ie. lowest error) Poorest confidence level = c This quality code is determined by a combination of sampling and analytical factors, and is included in the reported error estimate.
