I1W (kn9509) LADCP files in ascii format.

Multiple instruments were used on this cruise. There was LADCP failure
on three stations in the Great Whirl (906-908) and on 916 and another five
stations (934-938) at the center of the Arabian Basin. In the Great
Whirl data loss was restricted to below 1200 m depth and below this we
extrapolated linearly to zero velocity at the sea bed. However the
discontinuous shear trace also degrades the absolute velocity. Station
957 was too shallow (less than 100 m, no cast).
