Experiment name: AnSlope 2003-04 Principal Investigator: A.L.Gordon/A.Orsi/R.D.Pillsbury PI's affiliation: LDEO/TAMU/OSU Mooring Name: East B-1 Mooring position: 72.064 deg S, 173.628 deg E Instrument depth: 586 meters Seafloor depth: 982 meters Times: starts 01 Mar 2003, ends 28 Feb 2004 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8s parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.92 37.91 138.40 27.29 364.0 dir (deg true) 0.16 223.47 359.91 111.49 364.0 u (cm/sec) -117.66 -20.88 31.48 26.85 364.0 v (cm/sec) -64.61 11.51 125.49 29.87 364.0 temp (deg C) -0.50 0.81 1.24 0.26 364.0 pressure (db) 576.80 614.58 838.30 46.98 364.0 Recorded pressures are somewhat unstable. An initial base value of about 588 db goes immediately to 602 db, then drifts slowly down during the course of the year to 580 db. At recovery the current meter's clock was running a little over 9 minutes slow.

The axes of the PVD are labelled in kilometers. Boxes mark the beginning of each month.
