About PnB Processing
The PnB or Plumes and Blooms processing is used for processing data currently collected from the AC9, Hydroscat, and CTD deployed on the Plumes and Blooms cruises in the Santa Barbara Channel. Data from the instruments is originally in a raw format, where it is processed through instrument manufacturers software to get a basic data file. After each station is processed with the instrument manufacturers software, it is then processed with the scripts outlined in these pages.
Current working Matlab scripts for Plumes and Blooms are located in: /home/oceancolor/Plumes_and_Blooms/processing_scripts/
Erik currently process PnB data with scripts in /home/eriks/workingmfiles/
These scripts will be run in matlab in the directory they need to be processed in:
For HS6: PnB/HYDROSCAT/pb#
For AC9: PnB/AC9/pb#/processing
For PRR: PnB/PRR/pb#/lcd
More specific information about the cruises and instruments can be found at the ICESS PnB website
