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: 5375 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 2.54 9.15 1.63 659.7 dir (deg true) 0.00 164.86 358.99 91.18 659.7 u (cm/sec) -7.99 0.52 8.98 2.45 659.7 v (cm/sec) -6.61 -0.23 6.77 1.66 659.7 temp (deg C) 1.06 1.07 1.08 0.00 659.7 The current meter's speed sensor malfunctioned for approximately 8 days during October 1991 (2130 13 Oct 91 through 0700 22 Oct 91). Speed, u, and v contain a gap at this point; temperature and direction are present throughout, however. Approximately 42% 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 threshhold value.
