Experiment name: ICM8 Principal Investigator: F.Schott/D.Quadfasel PI's affiliation: Institut fuer Meereskund Mooring Name: K3 Mooring position: 4.178 deg N, 80.490 deg E Instrument depth: 705 meters Seafloor depth: 4330 meters Times: starts 09 Jan 1991, ends 04 Mar 1992 Time increment: 720 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.50 7.49 17.83 3.68 420.5 dir (deg true) 0.00 190.81 358.09 99.46 420.5 u (cm/sec) -12.20 -0.51 17.50 6.88 420.5 v (cm/sec) -14.90 0.48 14.70 4.68 420.5 temp (deg C) 7.80 8.20 8.68 0.15 420.5 All of the time series have been low-pass filtered and decimated to two points per day, by the PIs. The filter is described as having a "40-hour cutoff." CMDAC does not have the original unfiltered data and was unable to check for instrument errors. The temperatures in this file are potential, rather than in-situ temperatures. (Potential temperature is the temperature that a water parcel would have if it were moved adiabatically from its measurement depth to the sea surface.)
