Experiment name: ICM6 Principal Investigator: M.Tomczak, J.Church PI's affiliation: FIMAS, CSIRO Mooring Name: Mooring 6 Mooring position: 22.055 deg S, 112.650 deg E Instrument depth: 1535 meters Seafloor depth: 3050 meters Times: starts 30 Aug 1994, ends 01 Jun 1996 Time increment: 360 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM5 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.15 4.14 18.66 2.74 640.8 dir (deg true) 0.01 170.78 359.97 110.67 640.8 u (cm/sec) -11.40 -0.01 8.88 2.87 640.8 v (cm/sec) -10.48 0.54 18.49 4.02 640.8 temp (deg C) 3.08 3.34 3.69 0.11 640.8 pressure (db) 1470.28 1471.28 1483.50 1.53 640.8 The pressure series contains a significant excursion centered at 16 Apr 96 that has no counterpart in either speed or temperature. This pressure spike may not be real. FIMAS believes that the variation of the pressure series may be useful but that the mean value is inaccurate.
