Experiment name: SCM7 Principal Investigator: E.Fahrbach PI's affiliation: Alfred Wegener Inst. Mooring Name: AWI208 Mooring position: 65.605 deg S, 36.498 deg W Instrument depth: 4631 meters Seafloor depth: 4742 meters Times: starts 24 Sep 1989, ends 29 Nov 1990 Time increment: 120 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.00 1.23 13.31 1.87 430.7 dir (deg true) 0.50 194.81 358.50 88.81 430.7 u (cm/sec) -6.78 0.19 11.63 1.60 430.7 v (cm/sec) -10.81 -0.43 4.87 1.49 430.7 temp (deg C) -0.54 -0.52 -0.48 0.01 430.7 Approximately 47% of the speeds in this record were below the current meter's threshold and have been set to zero. There are many other instances in which below-threshold speeds appear to have been interpolated to values between the threshold (probably about 1.5 cm/sec) and zero.
