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 20 Mooring position: 32.453 deg S, 168.225 deg W Instrument depth: 2465 meters Seafloor depth: 5553 meters Times: starts 06 Feb 1991, ends 27 Nov 1992 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.93 2.86 11.44 1.86 659.7 dir (deg true) 0.00 190.03 358.99 98.12 659.7 u (cm/sec) -11.11 -0.26 10.72 2.56 659.7 v (cm/sec) -8.49 -0.21 7.72 2.23 659.7 temp (deg C) 1.96 2.01 2.06 0.01 659.7 pressure (db) 2500.34 2505.33 2507.60 1.99 659.7 The current meter's speed sensor malfunctioned for approximately 8 days during March and April 1992 (2130 26 Mar 92 through 2130 3 Apr 92). Speed, u, and v contain a gap at this point; temperature, pressure, and direction are present throughout, however. Approximately 39% of the speeds in this record were at or below the current meter's threshold (1.86 cm/sec). They have been set to half the threshold value.
