Experiment name: ACM3 (Deep Basin) Principal Investigator: N.G.Hogg PI's affiliation: WHOI Mooring Name: WHOI 909 Mooring position: 30.087 deg S, 41.736 deg W Instrument depth: 514 meters Seafloor depth: 3814 meters Times: starts 08 Jan 1991, ends 04 Dec 1992 Time increment: 15 minutes Instrument type: VACM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.72 8.55 35.84 4.54 696.0 dir (deg true) 0.00 211.81 359.97 93.91 696.0 u (cm/sec) -33.76 -2.76 22.43 5.95 696.0 v (cm/sec) -35.51 -0.85 27.08 7.06 696.0 temp (deg C) 9.10 11.00 12.88 0.63 696.0 pressure (db) 489.90 491.24 497.70 1.51 696.0 The minimum pressure recorded by this meter, 489.9 db, suggests a shallower depth than the 514 m given for the meter. The latter depth apparently is based on line lengths and the depths of the two deepest meters on the mooring, and was judged by the data originator to be more accurate than a pressure-based depth.
