Experiment name: ACM12 (Deep Basin) Principal Investigator: W.Zenk PI's affiliation: IFM-Kiel Mooring Name: BM/334 Mooring position: 27.985 deg S, 46.338 deg W Instrument depth: 930 meters Seafloor depth: 2187 meters Times: starts 03 Jan 1991, ends 26 Nov 1992 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.99 7.81 40.92 6.72 693.8 dir (deg true) 0.00 214.60 359.79 75.39 693.8 u (cm/sec) -39.55 -2.52 34.51 6.09 693.8 v (cm/sec) -39.13 -2.97 26.49 7.34 693.8 temp (deg C) 3.46 4.48 5.36 0.29 693.8 Blowover of this mooring was substantial. (See the comments on the two current meters above this one on the mooring.) Approximately 18% of the speeds in this record were at or below the instrument's threshold. These speeds have been set to the threshold value (1 cm/sec). There is a 10 day episode of such speeds during 6 Aug - 15 Aug 91.
