# Data from F.Perez
# Ship and cruise designation: R/V Thalassia; Ovide4
# EXPOCODE: 35TH20040604
# Cruise dates: 6/4/2004 - 7/6/2004
# 114 stations
# Region: North Atlantic, Spain to Greenland
# Chief Scientist: Thierry Huck
# Hydro: Who - T. Huck; Status - final
# Notes:
# Deep salinity values slightly lower (<0.001) than Ovide 2 data; WOCE data are intermediate
# Pressure values updated 2/26/08
# See Lherminier et al. 2008
# Nuts/O2: Who - P. Morin; Status - final
# Notes: final nuts from P.Morin via F. Perez 12/1/07
# Nitrate data (actually nitrate+nitrite) show significant scatter for stations 1-50.
# Silicate data precise
# Phosphate data are precise
# Oxygen generally comparable with WOCE
# TA: Who - F.Perez et al.; Status - final
# Notes: CRM used (batch 64)
# Automatic potentiometric titrator (Perez et al., 2000)
# CRM reproducibility of 0.7+/-1.0 (23 duplicates)
# Deep values in East (high silicate) may be slightly low relative to
# WOCE, but detailed comparison needed to qualtify/assure
# See Perez et al. 2008.
