2015-11-26 12:00	optode	dissolved_oxygen	51	Need to check post-calibrations for 51m dissolved oxygen data - offset seen between it and 50m SBE43 readings.
2015-11-26 12:00	sbe16	dissolved_oxygen	50	Need to check post-calibrations for 50m dissolved oxygen data - offset seen between it and 51m optode readings.
2016-01-31 00:00	doppler	ALL	3.2	Doppler current profiler battery voltage dropping faster than expected; instrument still operating properly.

2016-07-07 14:08	ALL	ALL		Recovered by R/V Connecticut. Signs of apparent collision with following damage to tower: RMYoung missing tail section, Gill missing electronics, Goes antenna chipped. RDI external batt 41V.

Notes: Sensors highlighted in red indicate problems with this sensor during deployment. Depth is measured relative to the ocean surface with positive depths indicating depths below the ocean surface. Negative depths are heights above the surface. In the case of doppler current measurements, the depth indicates depth of first measurement:delta-depth:depth of last measurement. For instance, 10:4:106 represents currents measured every 4 meters from 10 meters down to 106 meters (28 depths in all).
