Experiment name: AnSlope 2003-04 Principal Investigator: A.L.Gordon/A.Orsi/R.D.Pillsbury PI's affiliation: LDEO/TAMU/OSU Mooring Name: Central D-1 Mooring position: 71.981 deg S, 173.191 deg E Instrument depth: 1097 meters Seafloor depth: 1118 meters Times: starts 02 Mar 2003, ends 27 Feb 2004 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8s parameter min mean max sd days dir (deg true) 0.00 298.14 359.38 48.47 362.1 temp (deg C) -1.83 -0.15 0.76 0.30 362.1 This instrument lost its Savonius rotor during launch; speed, u, and v are not present. No directions between about 25 degrees and 245 degrees were recorded. Was this caused by a fault? Perhaps not; the deepest Aanderaa at Central C-1 registered a similar distribution of current directions.
