Article

At the beginning of August, 2010, CDEX announced the followings.

Dear IODP Scientists,

In a review of MSCL-W data in preparation for this year’s IODP expeditions, we have found that there were several errors discovered in some of the data collections with some of the following instruments over previous expeditions: XCT images, MAD measurements, MSCL-W, SQUID, IC-Anion, and UV-NH4. These Expeditions include parts of IODP Exp 315, 316, 319, and 322. Detailed information particular to each expedition is being sent to the respective science parties of the relevant expeditions.

We have completed a comprehensive review of all the data sets collected aboard D/V Chikyu, and have certified that there have been no other errors. We sincerely apologize for the trouble and inconvenience this causes for scientists using our data, and realize that these kinds of errors, while unfortunate, should have been caught before. In order to prevent the reoccurrence of these kinds of mistakes, the Center for Deep Earth Exploration (CDEX), along with Marine Works Japan (MWJ), are reviewing and reforming the calibration and data collection procedures for each instrument aboard D/V Chikyu and revisiting operator training for ALL MWJ technicians aboard D/V Chikyu.

Corrected data (with the correct calibration figures) will be updated and uploaded to the JCORES public website (http://sio7.jamstec.go.jp/) by Friday, 13 August 2010. We again apologize for the trouble this will cause all scientists using our data, and realize that it is our duty to provide the most accurate and reliable data to the science community.

Data of Expeditions 314, 315 and 316 cannot be accessed while the data correction.

Similar errors were found also for Expeditions 901, 902, 903, 904 and 905.

Article

On June 21, 2010, data index pages were reorganized. This web site was renamed from `Chikyu Laboratory Data Center' to `SIO7 Data Center'.

Article

In Week of May 31, 2010, around 150 parameters were renamed in the Extra scalar column group in the J-CORES Bulk Exported data files. At the same time, the columns were re-categorized into bulk-something.csv files.

Article

After May 12, 2010, the J-CORES Bulk Exported data files are by using J-CORES Version 1.6, which implements IODP Depth Scale Terminologies (Version 1.1).

Article

On April 1, 2010, a planning note was opened how this site will be improved its data distribution in order to co-work with the coming SEDIS Phase III.

Article

In March and April, 2010, a few minor updates were applied to the distributing data files originated from the J-CORES database.

After March 19, 2010, J-CORES Bulk Exported data file set does not include bulk.csv or complete.zip. At the same time, the metadata were improved to have more information for SEDIS Phase I. After April 12, 2010, double colon characters :: delimit the title and series names in the column headers of the Extra scalar column group in the J-CORES Bulk Exported data files. The delimiter was a hyphen-minus character - before. After April 16, 2010, some bulk-something.csv files contain their targeting discrete sample information. Files bulk-something.csv are generated by picking some kinds of data from bulk.csv which is Bulk Exported from the J-CORES database. These files contained measurement results with their depths only before.

Article

In March, 2010, this site started distributing the scientific reports of JAMSTEC (i.e. non-IODP) expeditions by D/V Chikyu.

Article

Subject: Unit of MSCL-W Magnetic susceptibility

Description: In October, 2009 during Expedition 322 it was reported by one of the onboard scientists that the unit of MSCL-W Magnetic susceptibility given by J-CORES was suspicious. After the investigation we found that the unit (×0.001 SI) being used was incorrect and the wrong unit had been posted for the bulk export files. We also confirmed that the problem was only the unit but it had no effect on MSCL-W Magnetic susceptibility measurement.

Status: The problem was fixed by changing the unit to the write one (×0.00001 SI). The correction was applied all the bulk export files shown in Public J-CORES Data center on November 6, 2009 Japan Standard Time.
