Experiment name: MAPKIWI (PCM9) Principal Investigator: W.D.Nowlin/R.D.Pillsbury/B.Warren/T.Whitworth PI's affiliation: OSU/TAMU/WHOI Mooring Name: Kiwi 14 Mooring position: 32.500 deg S, 172.186 deg W Instrument depth: 4105 meters Seafloor depth: 5446 meters Times: starts 08 Feb 1991, ends 25 Nov 1992 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.93 2.28 6.88 1.42 53.9 dir (deg true) 0.00 185.44 358.99 108.30 655.8 u (cm/sec) -6.87 -0.18 5.87 1.99 53.9 v (cm/sec) -5.33 -0.38 5.53 1.76 53.9 temp (deg C) 1.09 1.15 1.21 0.02 655.8 The current meter's speed sensor failed approximately 54 days into the deployment. The last speed is at 1800 3 Apr 91. Direction and temperature are present throughout. Approximately 46% of the speeds in this record (before the speed sensor failed) were at or below the current meter's threshold (1.86 cm/sec). They have been set to half the threshold value.
