Experiment name: ACM12 (Deep Basin) Principal Investigator: W.Zenk PI's affiliation: IFM-Kiel Mooring Name: VW/336 Mooring position: 31.203 deg S, 39.767 deg W Instrument depth: 2970 meters Seafloor depth: 3965 meters Times: starts 10 Jan 1991, ends 05 Dec 1992 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.99 5.23 15.03 2.82 696.7 dir (deg true) 0.00 184.01 359.88 114.95 696.7 u (cm/sec) -10.58 0.34 9.75 2.72 696.7 v (cm/sec) -13.61 0.51 14.99 5.24 696.7 temp (deg C) 2.65 2.76 2.85 0.04 696.7 Approximately 9% of the speeds registered by this current meter were below the instrument's threshold, and have been set to 1 cm/sec. The speed series contains a large number of linear interpolations a few hours in length. Direction also appears to contain some linear interpolations.
