Experiment name: Peru Currents Study Principal Investigator: R.L.Smith Affiliation: OSU Mooring name: 5 deg S Offshore Mooring position: 4.962 deg S, 82.503 deg W Instrument depth: 50 meters Seafloor depth: 3935 meters Times: 2009 08 Feb 1983 to 1409 03 Mar 1984 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM4/5 parameter min mean max stddev days speed (cm/sec) 0.71 12.65 60.68 8.45 287.42 dir (deg true) 0.00 175.78 359.31 104.03 287.42 u (cm/sec) -31.00 0.67 37.90 8.97 287.42 v (cm/sec) -60.10 -0.88 48.50 12.24 287.42 temp (deg C) 14.58 19.80 27.49 3.99 388.79 pressure (db) 19.90 38.02 105.20 11.17 388.79 cond (mmho/cm) 33.32 37.73 46.42 2.81 216.38 Speed and direction end early at line 6898 (0509 23 Nov 1983). Conductivity begins late at line 4139 (0609 31 Jul 1983). There is a 15 db increase in pressure on 22 Jan 1984. There is no corresponding change in temperature or conductivity, which may indicate a problem with the pressure sensor.
