Experiment name: SCM2 Principal Investigator: E.Fahrbach PI's affiliation: Alfred Wegener Inst. Mooring Name: AWI228-1 Mooring position: 57.000 deg S, 0.003 deg E Instrument depth: 3827 meters Seafloor depth: 3900 meters Times: starts 13 Apr 1996, ends 13 May 1998 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Falmouth 3D-ACM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.06 5.97 36.98 3.75 759.5 dir (deg true) 0.00 189.15 359.80 59.53 759.5 u (cm/sec) -21.44 -1.50 11.13 3.92 759.5 v (cm/sec) -31.39 -4.09 12.00 3.93 759.5 w (cm/sec) -8.21 -0.14 4.94 1.55 759.5 pressure (db) 3796.70 3819.97 3829.60 7.54 372.1 salinity (psu) 34.65 34.65 34.66 0.00 371.8 Pressure and salinity end about halfway through the record: pressure ends at line 8930 (1900 20 Apr 97) salinity ends at line 8924 (1300 20 Apr 97) Vertical velocity contains a gap in lines 17441 - 17922 (1000 10 Apr 98 - 1100 30 Apr 98). Finally, in the original version of this file (the file that we obtained from AWI) we found two episodes of unrealistic linear interpolations in speed and direction near the end of the record. Our judgement is that these interpolations are not useful and we have removed them, leaving gaps. Thus in the present file speed and direction contain two gaps: lines 17444 - 17755 (1300 10 Apr 98 - 1200 23 Apr 98) lines 17883 - 17911 (2000 28 Apr 98 - 1100 30 Apr 98)
