Experiment name: PCM3 Principal Investigator: J.Church PI's affiliation: CSIRO Mooring Name: Tas913 Mooring position: 30.057 deg S, 153.562 deg E Instrument depth: 400 meters Seafloor depth: 700 meters Times: starts 17 Nov 1991, ends 28 Sep 1992 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa Meter RCM5S parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.09 4.37 23.30 2.94 316.6 dir (deg true) 0.14 220.99 359.18 89.92 316.6 u (cm/sec) -19.54 -1.77 12.58 3.84 316.6 v (cm/sec) -14.50 0.07 16.86 3.13 316.6 temp (deg C) 7.72 9.93 13.47 0.89 316.6 pressure (db) 416.00 438.21 467.00 9.51 316.6 The nominal depth of this instrument is given as 400 meters. However, the pressure record indicates that the actual depth of the instrument was somewhat greater. This is confirmed by pressure records from other current meters on the mooring, which indicate depths about 40 meters greater than the given depths. The speed and direction series of this record contain a linear interpolation, apparently to replace bad data, during 10 and 11 Jan 1992.
