 Methodology: Methodology

 Change history: YYMMDD
    080714: contributed by Benjamin Van Mooy
    081113: Cruise_ID added manually
            date, event, ev_code, lon, lat from cruise logs merged with original data
    081113: added to OCB database; Steve Gegg (sgegg@whoi.edu), OCB DMO


 DMO Note: Used common ev_code (based on CTDs) from these data to determine
           sample position, date and event code for bacterial production data
           KM0414 event log
           RR_K2 event log
