*CALIBRATION

*COMMENTS
    Sample taken from the seawater loop on the Tully.

    "Nutrients were measured using an Autoanalyzer II, following the "
    Procedures outlined in 'Institute of Ocean Sciences Nutrient Methods
    "and Analysis, Barwell-Clarke and Whitney, 1997'.  The samples were"
    frozen on board and brought back to IOS for analysis by contract.

    Nitrate/silicate samples were defrosted for about 24 hours before analysis.
    Phosphate samples were rapidly defrosted in moving room temperature air
    "or warm water.  Lab temperature was noted periodically, and may be found "
    on the original data sheets; it was generally around 26 C.  Samples were
    inverted and shaken before analysis.

    "See file 9836nutr.xls for details on the analysis, turbidity corrections "
    and calibration for the nutrient data.

    "For nutrients, total of 130 samples were measured and of these, 18 samples"
    were measured in duplicate to estimate variability and the pooled standard
    deviations are as follows: Nitrate Sp=0.49 uM; Silicate Sp=0.77 uM;
    Phosphate Sp=0.051 uM.
