Experiment name: SCM4 (WAB95) Principal Investigator: T.McDougall PI's affiliation: CSIRO Marine Research Mooring Name: Mooring 5 Mooring position: 33.003 deg S, 104.243 deg E Instrument depth: 4801 meters Seafloor depth: 5491 meters Times: starts 01 Jul 1995, ends 01 Feb 1996 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM8 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.10 1.30 6.60 0.64 215.3 dir (deg true) 0.00 116.58 359.00 90.57 215.3 u (cm/sec) -3.50 0.67 6.28 0.86 215.3 v (cm/sec) -3.76 0.23 5.77 0.93 215.3 temp (deg C) 0.94 0.97 0.98 0.01 215.3 Approximately 85% of the speeds recorded by this current meter were at or below the instrument's threshold (1.1 cm/sec) and have been set to the threshold value. This record probably is not useful except as an indication that the currents at this location and depth are slight.
