Experiment name: Iceland-Faroe Overflow (ACM8) Principal Investigator: P.Saunders PI's affiliation: Inst. Oceanog. Sci. (UK) Mooring Name: 507 (G) Mooring position: 61.832 deg N, 15.623 deg W Instrument depth: 2296 meters Seafloor depth: 2306 meters Times: starts 15 Jul 1990, ends 17 Aug 1991 Time increment: 60 minutes Instrument type: Aanderaa RCM5 parameter min mean max sd days speed (cm/sec) 0.22 12.09 44.09 6.03 397.8 dir (deg true) 0.02 190.57 359.69 103.23 397.8 u (cm/sec) -36.17 -1.70 34.23 9.34 397.8 v (cm/sec) -39.23 -0.63 44.09 9.59 397.8 temp (deg C) 1.35 2.46 3.22 0.36 397.8 This record starts well but becomes increasingly corrupted. Speed contains many interpolated sections, beginning in mid- November 1990. These increase in frequency toward the end of the record. Temperature also contains interpolations and seems to stick at particular values after the end of August 1990. Only the first few months of this record are good; the remainder should be used with caution, if at all. CMDAC has not prepared an alternate file.
