Experiment name: SCM2 Principal Investigator: E.Fahrbach PI's affiliation: Alfred Wegener Inst. Mooring Name: AWI228-1 Mooring position: 57.000 deg S, 0.003 deg E Instrument depth: 810 meters Seafloor depth: 3900 meters Times: starts 13 Apr 1996, ends 01 Apr 1998 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Falmouth 3D-ACM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.02 8.64 25.58 4.84 717.8 dir (deg true) 0.00 113.44 359.90 104.48 717.8 u (cm/sec) -16.82 4.29 25.11 5.57 717.8 v (cm/sec) -15.28 3.96 23.78 5.75 717.8 w (cm/sec) -6.37 -0.63 7.87 0.87 717.8 temp (deg C) 0.28 0.51 1.01 0.13 717.8 pressure (db) 759.40 766.79 890.00 11.62 717.8 salinity (psu) 34.61 34.68 34.70 0.01 716.7 Salinity contains a gap in lines 6258 through 6279 (1100 30 Dec 96 through 0800 31 Dec 96). There is also a significant change of register across the gap that is not seen in temperature or any other parameter, which leads one to wonder whether the salinities are correct at this point in the record. In addition, the salinity series ends about a day earlier than the other parameters.
