Experiment name: AnSlope 2003-04 Principal Investigator: A.L.Gordon/A.Orsi/R.D.Pillsbury PI's affiliation: LDEO/TAMU/OSU Mooring Name: West C-1 Mooring position: 71.939 deg S, 172.727 deg E Instrument depth: 629 meters Seafloor depth: 1630 meters Times: starts 04 Mar 2003, ends 27 Feb 2004 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8s parameter min mean max sd days dir (deg true) 0.00 205.98 359.38 110.85 360.0 temp (deg C) -1.05 0.88 1.27 0.22 360.0 pressure (db) 620.70 718.43 1497.10 144.62 360.0 RCM 5868 lost its Savonius rotor during the initial descent through the ice. Base pressures (i.e., pressures recorded during intervals of low speed) are about 639 decibars initially but decrease to about 625 decibars by the end of the record. The instrument's clock was running 13 minutes 9 seconds slow at recovery.
