Experiment name: NC Field Principal Investigator: J.O.Blanton Affiliation: US Minerals Mngmnt Svc Mooring name: B4 Mooring position: 35.360 deg N, 74.717 deg W Instrument depth: 100 meters Seafloor depth: 2000 meters Times: 0100 13 Mar 1992 to 1500 08 Feb 1994 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: General Oceanics parameter min mean max stddev days speed (cm/sec) 0.00 126.12 292.60 50.20 697.63 dir (deg true) 0.00 47.90 359.97 44.34 697.63 u (cm/sec) -37.74 79.19 191.58 38.70 697.63 v (cm/sec) -166.09 94.47 235.14 41.61 697.63 temp (deg C) 6.81 18.36 26.28 2.47 697.63 pressure (db) 66.20 154.52 304.45 57.58 697.63 salinity (psu) 35.46 38.47 39.52 0.54 697.63 Salinity begins late, at line 4082 (0200 30 Aug 92), and contains a gap in lines 12735 (1500 25 Aug 93) through 12744 (0000 26 Aug 93). The gap occurs where salinity shows an unrealistically large increase between succesive deployments of the mooring. We think this may be due to uncalibrated or drifting sensors.
