Experiment name: Vents 96 Principal Investigator: unavailable Affiliation: PMEL Mooring name: 96V94 Mooring position: 45.550 deg N, 130.081 deg W Instrument depth: 1498 meters Seafloor depth: 2233 meters Times: 2100 22 Jun 1996 to 0300 02 Jul 1997 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM parameter min mean max stddev days speed (cm/sec) 0.00 4.25 16.72 1.79 374.29 dir (deg true) 0.00 202.04 359.86 91.21 374.29 u (cm/sec) -9.84 -1.06 8.17 2.71 374.29 v (cm/sec) -16.52 -1.09 10.00 3.41 374.29 temp (deg C) 2.20 2.31 2.42 0.03 374.29 pressure (db) 1560.20 1565.99 1568.70 1.26 374.29 The u and v components (and speed and direction) contain a gap in lines 393 (0500 09 Jul 96) through 562 (0600 16 Jul 96). Possibly, the gap was caused by a long interval of below-threshold speeds, but it is more likely that the cause was an instrument failure, and we have treated it as such here.
