10 full depth CTD casts were taken in the vicinity of Mawson and Casey as part of the geoscience work on Aurora Australis cruise au9705, January to March 1997. A 12 bottle rosette sampler was used to collect salinity samples only, for calibration of CTD data. The fields in this dataset are: oceanography ship station number date start time bottom time finish time cruise start position bottom position finish position maximum position bottom depth pressure sigma-T specific volume anomaly geopotential anomaly temperature (C) (ITS-90) salinity (PSS78) density-1000 (kg.m-3) specific volume anomaly x 108 geopotential anomaly dissolved oxygen (mmol.l-1) number of data points used in the 2 dbar averaging bin standard deviation of temperature values in the 2 dbar bin standard deviation of conductivity values in the 2 dbar bin station number CTD pressure (dbar) CTD temperature (oC) (ITS-90) reversing thermometer temperature (C) CTD conductivity (mS.cm-1) CTD salinity (PSS78) bottle salinity (PSS78) bottle quality flag (-1=rejected, 0=suspect, 1=good) niskin bottle number
