Experiment name: ACM13 (Deep Basin) Principal Investigator: W.Zenk PI's affiliation: IFM Kiel Mooring Name: 354 Mooring position: 34.425 deg S, 27.860 deg W Instrument depth: 4335 meters Seafloor depth: 4350 meters Times: starts 12 Dec 1992, ends 28 May 1994 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.00 4.43 15.87 2.70 531.8 dir (deg true) 0.28 139.33 359.94 103.86 531.8 u (cm/sec) -13.40 1.32 12.50 3.06 531.8 v (cm/sec) -15.61 0.39 13.42 3.95 531.8 temp 1 (deg C) 0.32 0.44 0.67 0.05 531.8 temp 2 (deg C) 0.61 0.73 0.97 0.04 531.8 Approximately 16% of the speeds were at or below the current meter's threshold and have been set to 1 cm/sec. This record contains two temperature series, which have been designated temp 1 and temp 2. The resolution of temp 1 is better than that of temp 2, and its mean value is different. The PI suggests that both be made available and that the user make an independent judgement as to which series is more accurate.
