Notes

Collected equipment from Rose, and bridge crew. Rose reported that monitor had played up, she had performed calibrations advised us not to bother recording salinity as this profile appeared to be inaccurate (on YS1). Despite this, I have recorded all readings, as they appeared on monitor, for interests sake. They were all reasonably stable.
So 'calibrations required' refers to those performed by Rose (not by us) ..
