Experiment name: SCM4 (WAB95) Principal Investigator: T.McDougall PI's affiliation: CSIRO Marine Research Mooring Name: Mooring 7 Mooring position: 33.768 deg S, 106.850 deg E Instrument depth: 3200 meters Seafloor depth: 5168 meters Times: starts 24 Jun 1995, ends 27 May 1996 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM5 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.10 1.73 4.30 0.73 338.2 dir (deg true) 0.00 144.28 358.96 89.47 338.2 u (cm/sec) -3.62 0.41 3.78 1.22 338.2 v (cm/sec) -3.65 -0.18 3.48 1.36 338.2 temp (deg C) 1.47 1.61 1.72 0.06 338.2 pressure (db) 3329.90 3336.87 3343.70 0.94 338.2 Approximately 48% of the speeds registered by this current meter were at or below the instrument's threshold (1.1 cm/sec) and have been set to the threshold value. The stated depth of this meter is some 80 m shallower than the depth that corresponds to the minimum pressure that the instrument recorded.
