COARE PRELIMINARY MOORING DATA 
		     SUBJECT TO REVISION
                        28 June 1994

mooring name       : PCM E
PCM serial number  : 04

		LOCATION
latitude           :   1/44.315 S 
longitude          : 156/31.210 E

		TIMING
first profile      : 0900Z 24 OCT 92
last profile       : 1800Z  7 MAR 93
profile interval   : 3 hours
number of profiles : 1076

    TEMPERATURE AND SALINITY DEPTH BINS
top bin center     :  35.0 meters
bottom bin center  : 180.0 meters
bin width          :   5.0 meters
number of bins     :  30

		UNITS

salinity	   :  PSU

            DATA FILE FORMATS

	ASCII data files were created by starting at the
top bin and writing its time series of 1076 profiles, then
the next deeper bin, and so on to the bottom bin.  Ten
values were written on each line of text using C (Fortran)
format specifier %8.2f (f8.2) for velocity.  Missing
data are flagged with -999.

           NOTES ON DATA PROCESSING

	The electromagnetic current meter on PCM S/N 4
failed to operate during the deployment.  The conductivity
cell constant was calculated by comparing PCM profiles with
concurrent colocated CTD casts from R/V WECOMA at deployment
and recovery.
