   The EqPac methods were followed explicity on the APFZ Survey I cruise
   with three exceptions:
 
   1.  Low carbon water (LCW) prepared onboard ship using a commercial NanoPure (R)
   UV/TOC system was used to measure the instrument blank as opposed to the
   carbon free distilled water (CFDW) that was used in EqPac.
 
   2.  The LCW prepared onboard was checked against LCW prepared at WHOI using a
   Milli-Q UV/TOC (R) system and shipped to New Zealand in glass bottles.  This
   water was assigned a background TOC concentration of zero.
 
   3.  Arabian sea deep water was used to prepare the daily calibration standards.
   This water has a background TOC concentration of 42.3 uMC.
