Experiment name: AnSlope 2004-05 Principal Investigator: A.L.Gordon/A.Orsi/R.D.Pillsbury Affiliation: LDEO/TAMU/OSU Mooring name: M-5 Mooring position: 71.907 deg S, 172.922 deg E Instrument depth: 448 meters Seafloor depth: 1749 meters Times: 0600 09 Mar 2004 to 0600 03 Feb 2005 Time increment: 30 minutes Instrument type: SBE-37 MicroCat parameter min mean max stddev days temp (deg C) -1.30 1.06 1.30 0.12 331.02 pressure (db) 440.90 461.29 719.60 31.09 331.02 cond (mmho/cm) 27.71 29.95 30.15 0.12 331.02 The depth of this instrument appears to have increased by about 7 meters after 6 Jan 05. The same increase can be seen in records from other instruments on this mooring that carried pressure sensors. There are also indications that the depth decreased by a few meters during the initial several days; but this could be due to line stretch.
