<<< Brief description for data
    from Micro Structure Profiler ("TurboMAP")
    on-board R/V Mirai during CINDY2011  >>>


- Outline

  This directory contains data files from MSP
  operated during CINDY2011 special observation period (SOP).


- Files in this directory

  Data is in two formats: ASCII and Matlab.
  Both data are archived in directory named "ascii" and "matlab".

  Data files are named as:
    mr11-07-(N)-YYYY-MM-DD_hhmmss_final.FFF
  where 
    (N): observion number, in 1 to 3 digits.
         note: not idential to CTD or LADCP
    FFF: format. "asc" for ascii / "mat" for matlab.
    YYYY, MM, DD, hh, mm, ss: Timestamp (in UTC) when start profiling.


- Format

  in ASCII files, each line indicate data from one layer, as
    Pressure  Depth  Epsilon  Temperature  Salinity  Potential_Density
    [dbar]    [m]   [m^2/s^3] [deg.C]      [PSU]     [kg/m^3]
