Experiment name: ICM7 Principal Investigator: F.Schott/D.Quadfasel PI's affiliation: Institut fuer Meereskund Mooring Name: IK17 Mooring position: 8.750 deg N, 54.330 deg E Instrument depth: 2050 meters Seafloor depth: 4940 meters Times: starts 09 Apr 1995, ends 21 Oct 1996 Time increment: 720 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM-8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.22 3.56 12.87 2.11 561.0 dir (deg true) 0.00 187.89 358.60 106.56 561.0 u (cm/sec) -10.60 -0.68 8.30 2.33 561.0 v (cm/sec) -9.40 0.03 12.60 3.35 561.0 temp (deg C) 2.51 2.97 3.34 0.15 561.0 pressure (db) 2038.80 2050.23 2142.50 21.37 561.0 All of the time series have been low-pass filtered and decimated to two points per day, by the PI. The filter is described as having a "40-hour cutoff." CMDAC does not have the original unfiltered data. The pressure sensor appears to have gone offscale twice during this record - during 12 Feb 96 through 18 Feb 96 and for about a ner the end of the record (7 Oct 96 through 16 Oct 96). The current meter's temperature sensor was not specially calibrated for this experiment. That is, the manufacturer's calibration was used. Since the response of a sensor and its circuitry may drift substantially in time, these temperatures should be used with caution.
