Experiment name: NPEO Principal Investigator: K.Aagaard Affiliation: U of Washington Mooring name: NP 2001-02 Mooring position: 89.557 deg N, 66.647 deg E Instrument depth: 110 meters Seafloor depth: 4293 meters Times: 0830 10 Apr 2001 to 1653 19 Apr 2002 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: Seabird SBE16 parameter min mean max stddev days temp (deg C) -1.70 -1.44 -1.13 0.09 374.38 pressure (db) 110.18 113.20 121.51 0.72 374.38 cond (mmho/cm) 26.94 27.29 27.60 0.09 374.38 salinity (PSU) 34.03 34.21 34.35 0.03 374.38 Pressure inceases by about 2.5 db during the first several hours. Some other instruments on this mooring show a similar increase. This may indicate that the mooring slid deeper, or that the pressure sensors became acclimated slowly.
