Experiment name: KERE (PCM7) Principal Investigator: Z.Hallock PI's affiliation: Stennis Space Center Mooring Name: Mooring E Mooring position: 34.493 deg N, 143.378 deg E Instrument depth: 530 meters Seafloor depth: 5500 meters Times: starts 29 Jun 1993, ends 12 Oct 1993 Time increment: 15 minutes Instrument type: Neil Brown Acoustic CM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.40 43.67 77.79 13.24 104.8 dir (deg true) 0.00 114.85 359.94 87.04 104.8 u (cm/sec) -51.90 25.14 69.20 21.29 104.8 v (cm/sec) -72.44 6.62 67.39 30.87 104.8 temp (deg C) 5.56 11.37 14.56 2.02 104.8 pressure (db) 481.30 529.68 700.35 43.28 104.8 There is an unusual episode of very low and nearly constant u-component values during 4 and 5 Sep 93. u is noisier than usual for several hours preceding this episode, but the v-component is unexceptional throughout this time. u (but not v) becomes noisy again about a week later, for several days. The unusual u values may be the result of an instrument failure, and caution is recommended in their use.
