Experiment name: SCM7 Principal Investigator: E.Fahrbach PI's affiliation: Alfred Wegener Inst. Mooring Name: AWI217 Mooring position: 64.418 deg S, 45.850 deg W Instrument depth: 220 meters Seafloor depth: 4390 meters Times: starts 24 Nov 1990, ends 26 Jan 1992 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.00 3.27 13.59 2.28 427.3 dir (deg true) 0.20 143.11 359.90 128.87 427.3 u (cm/sec) -10.20 0.87 9.73 2.38 427.3 v (cm/sec) -4.56 2.00 12.95 2.34 427.3 temp (deg C) -0.85 0.29 0.57 0.11 326.2 pressure (db) 217.90 221.24 232.10 1.46 401.0 salinity (psu) 34.50 34.71 35.06 0.05 290.0 Approximately 5% of the speeds in this record were below the current meter's threshold and have been set to zero. Many other below-threshold speeds have been interpolated to values between zero and the threshold. Three of the time series in this record end early: temperature at line 3914, pressure at line 4812, and salinity at line 3480. The salinity series contains two unusual changes of register in which salinity increases by about 0.3 psu near the end of the record. Are these real, or are they instrument errors?
