Experiment name: ACM13 (Deep Basin) Principal Investigator: W.Zenk PI's affiliation: IFM Kiel Mooring Name: 358 Mooring position: 34.543 deg S, 26.975 deg W Instrument depth: 2000 meters Seafloor depth: 4325 meters Times: starts 15 Dec 1992, ends 29 May 1994 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.00 2.12 13.60 1.60 529.8 dir (deg true) 0.03 175.72 359.71 100.13 529.8 u (cm/sec) -13.20 -0.08 10.34 1.94 529.8 v (cm/sec) -9.45 -0.09 9.41 1.81 529.8 temp 1 (deg C) 2.75 2.81 2.87 0.01 529.8 temp 2 (deg C) 2.77 2.82 2.88 0.02 529.8 salinity (ppt) 34.67 34.81 34.93 0.05 529.8 Approximately 37% of the speeds were at or below the current meter's threshold and have been set to 1 cm/sec. This record contains two temperature series, which have been designated temp 1 and temp 2. The resolution of temp 1 is better than that of temp 2, and its mean value is different. The PI suggests that both be made available and that the user make an independent judgement as to which series is more accurate.
