Experiment name: SCM6 (ADOX) Principal Investigator: R.Dickson PI's affiliation: CEFAS Mooring Name: 9313 Mooring position: 47.417 deg S, 55.608 deg E Instrument depth: 3536 meters Seafloor depth: 4110 meters Times: starts 08 Mar 1993, ends 04 Mar 1994 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM5 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 1.50 5.19 18.02 3.00 360.8 dir (deg true) 0.00 157.32 359.83 114.89 360.8 u (cm/sec) -15.06 0.66 13.89 3.63 360.8 v (cm/sec) -15.00 1.25 17.91 4.55 360.8 temp (deg C) 0.28 0.41 0.59 0.06 360.8 CEFAS provides a note of caution: "The quality of the data deteriorated after 21st August 1993 when pulse qualityerrors frequently appeared ... On some occasions values fromthe temperature, speed and direction sensors were clearly incorrect and these have been replaced by an interpolated value. A total of 269 speeds and 82 directions were amended and users should be aware that some questionable values may remain in this record. A comparison with the series from the meter situated 528 m below this one indicated a marked similarity." We (OSU) believe this to be, on the whole, a good record.
