The nominal depth of this current meter (the depth provided by
the PI) is 1800 m. However, the minimum pressure recorded by
the instrument, 1901.6 db, corresponds to a depth of about 1879
m. If this pressure is correct, the depths of some of the other
current meters on this mooring should be adjusted accordingly.
