Experiment name: not available Principal Investigator: not available PI's affiliation: MAFF Lowestoft Mooring Name: not available Mooring position: 30.325 deg N, 23.367 deg W Instrument depth: 1619 meters Seafloor depth: 5296 meters Times: starts 27 Oct 1981, ends 09 Jul 1982 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: not available parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.50 4.07 15.60 2.33 255.1 dir (deg true) 0.00 168.31 359.71 108.83 255.1 u (cm/sec) -10.84 0.80 15.00 3.48 255.1 v (cm/sec) -10.74 0.56 15.50 2.99 255.1 temp (deg C) 5.17 5.51 5.95 0.15 255.1 Speeds were at or below the meter's threshhold during a 10-day period extending from 26 May 82 to 5 Jun 82. An unbroken run of below-threshhold speeds this long at a depth of 1619 meters is unusual, and may indicate a sensor failure. Overall, approximately 16% of the speeds were at or below threshhold. Use these data with caution.
