Experiment name: SCM7 Principal Investigator: E.Fahrbach PI's affiliation: Alfred Wegener Inst. Mooring Name: AWI205 Mooring position: 70.710 deg S, 12.358 deg W Instrument depth: 805 meters Seafloor depth: 2123 meters Times: starts 22 Feb 1989, ends 29 Dec 1989 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.00 4.15 30.81 3.33 310.0 dir (deg true) 0.00 191.60 359.60 69.88 310.0 u (cm/sec) -23.47 -1.29 14.67 3.33 310.0 v (cm/sec) -25.70 -2.29 11.20 3.21 310.0 temp (deg C) 0.33 0.63 0.80 0.07 310.0 pressure (db) 805.81 805.84 805.81 0.03 310.0 Many of the low-speed (i.e., near threshhold) portions of the speed record appear to contain linearly interpolated sections. Approximately 32% of the speeds in this record are below 5 cm/sec. 9% of the speeds have been set to zero, an indication that they were below the current meter's threshold. Nonzero speeds below 1.5 cm/sec (which often is taken as the speed threshold for this type of meter) may be interpolated values.
