Experiment name: SCM3 Principal Investigator: S.Rintoul PI's affiliation: CSIRO Marine Research Mooring Name: Central Mooring position: 50.715 deg S, 143.382 deg E Instrument depth: 670 meters Seafloor depth: 3570 meters Times: starts 12 Oct 1991, ends 13 Oct 1992 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.10 27.31 51.40 8.59 367.7 dir (deg true) 0.00 96.22 359.01 92.49 367.7 u (cm/sec) -17.72 16.10 41.45 11.28 367.7 v (cm/sec) -39.92 12.06 51.20 16.96 367.7 temp (deg C) 2.47 5.82 9.25 1.69 367.7 pressure (db) 256.40 439.69 841.50 113.25 367.7 Speed contains a gap in lines 1434 through 1672 (2230 10 Dec 91 through 2030 20 Dec 91). This instrument's stated depth, 670 meters, does not correspond to either the minimum pressure it recorded (256 db) or the mean pressure (440 db). We have elected to include the pressure series here only because it does show episodes of significant mooring blowover.
