Experiment name: SCM9 (SWINDEX) Principal Investigator: R.Pollard PI's affiliation: Southampton Oceanog Ctr Mooring Name: Mooring A Mooring position: 45.420 deg S, 47.828 deg E Instrument depth: 330 meters Seafloor depth: 2864 meters Times: starts 12 Apr 1993, ends 20 Jun 1994 Time increment: 180 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM5 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 2.19 21.71 65.57 8.82 433.9 dir (deg true) 0.08 253.14 359.93 140.21 433.9 u (cm/sec) -31.76 -5.19 24.95 8.21 433.9 v (cm/sec) -11.69 19.42 61.32 8.83 433.9 temp (deg C) 1.88 3.76 4.96 0.51 433.9 pressure (db) 254.93 266.19 433.91 15.38 433.9 This record contains a number of isolated points where speed has been set to the threshold value, 2.2 cm/sec. These points appear to represent rotorcounter failures. CMDAC has prepared an alternate version of the file in which those speeds have been replaced by linear interpolations. both the original and alternate versions of the file are availabale on this disk. The average pressure, 266 db, corresponds to a depth significantly shallower than the stated depth of this meter (330 m).
