Experiment name: AWI Arctic moorings Principal Investigator: G.Rohardt Affiliation: Alfred Wegener Inst. Mooring name: 0161 Mooring position: 78.892 deg N, 6.744 deg E Instrument depth: 1121 meters Seafloor depth: 1616 meters Times: 1700 26 Jun 1988 to 1400 18 Apr 1989 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM parameter min mean max stddev days speed (cm/sec) 0.55 4.23 17.99 2.68 295.92 temp (deg C) -0.98 -0.76 0.05 0.10 240.88 pressure (db) 1132.00 1151.40 1361.80 19.41 245.42 This instrument's direction sensor failed (as did the direction sensor of every other instrument on this mooring). Directions have not been included here, but speed is present and good throughout. Approximately 9.1% of the speeds were below the instrument's threshold and have been set to 0.55 cm/sec (half the stall speed). Temperature ends early at line 5781 (1300 22 Feb 1989). Pressure ends early at line 5890 (0200 27 Feb 1989).
