Description:

Abstract:

In order to test hypotheses about groundwater flow under and into Chesapeake Bay, geophysical surveys were conducted by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) scientists on Chesapeake Bay and the Potomac River Estuary in September 2006. Chesapeake Bay resource managers are concerned about nutrients that are entering the estuary via submarine groundwater discharge, which are contributing to eutrophication. The USGS has performed many related studies in recent years to provide managers with information necessary to make informed decisions about this issue. The research carried out as part of the study described here was designed to help refine nutrient budgets for Chesapeake Bay by characterizing submarine groundwater flow and discharge of groundwater beneath part of the mainstem and a major tributary, the Potomac River Estuary.

Purpose:

To provide the data acquisition logs in PDF format. These logs can be invaluable in sorting out issues and questions with the data collected on cruise 06018.

Data_Quality_Information:

Logical_Consistency_Report:

The log books were maintained by individuals so they are not necessarily consistent in terms of information recorded or how the information was organized.

Completeness_Report:

This PDF contains all the information contained in the three original sources.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The individual handwritten log books maintained by John Bratton and Chuck Worley were scanned and converted to PDF documents by the scanner. An Excel spreadsheet maintained on board ship during the cruise was also converted to a PDF using Acrobat PDF maker within Excel. There is one post-cruise addition to the spreadsheet survey log. This is a comment indicating that the difference between UTC time and local time was 4 hours, not five hours.

Process_Description:

Edits to the metadata were made to fix any errors that MP v 2.9.36 flagged. This is necessary to enable the metadata to be successfully harvested for various data catalogs. In some cases, this meant adding text "Information unavailable" or "Information unavailable from original metadata" for those required fields that were left blank. Other minor edits were probably performed (title, publisher, publication place, etc.). Attempted to modify http to https where appropriate. The distribution format name was modified in an attempt to be more consistent with other metadata files of the same data format. The metadata date (but not the metadata creator) was edited to reflect the date of these changes. The metadata available from a harvester may supersede metadata bundled within a download file. Compare the metadata dates to determine which metadata file is most recent.
