Experiment name: SCM3 Principal Investigator: S.Rintoul PI's affiliation: CSIRO Marine Research Mooring Name: North Mooring position: 50.420 deg S, 143.525 deg E Instrument depth: 300 meters Seafloor depth: 3492 meters Times: starts 24 Mar 1995, ends 12 Mar 1997 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM5 parameter min mean max sd days dir (deg true) 0.00 58.52 358.96 61.60 719.4 temp (deg C) 3.52 7.51 9.44 1.19 719.4 pressure (db) 256.20 309.84 563.60 67.22 719.4 This instrument's speed sensor failed. However, the record does contain direction, which remains in a very narrow range - mostly within a few degrees of 50 degrees with occasional segments near 0 degrees. These directions are not unlike those from the same location and depth during an earlier deployment; probably they are good.
