Experiment name: ACM12 (Deep Basin) Principal Investigator: W.Zenk PI's affiliation: IFM-Kiel Mooring Name: BE/335 Mooring position: 28.269 deg S, 45.225 deg W Instrument depth: 1450 meters Seafloor depth: 3258 meters Times: starts 04 Jan 1991, ends 25 Nov 1992 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.99 7.41 26.67 5.53 691.8 dir (deg true) 0.12 222.03 359.55 79.72 691.8 u (cm/sec) -26.66 -3.56 17.36 6.04 691.8 v (cm/sec) -22.02 -1.60 19.04 5.81 691.8 temp (deg C) 2.88 3.26 3.80 0.18 691.8 Speed and direction in this record are of poor quality. Both series contain a large number of linear interpolations, most of which are from 1/2 day to 2 days in length. The mooring appears to have slipped downslope and settled about 35 meters deeper during a high-speed event at the end of February 1991.
