25 a) 5 cm/s Pseudo glider tracks track direction a) No compass error; the mean current ( 5 cm/s) is correctly measured b) Simple compass offset; errors in the measured current cancel c) Variable compass offset; errors in mean current do not cancel b) c) V = +3.5 cm/s V = cm/s V = 2 cm/s V = 55 cm/s
26 Impact of eddy motion on mean transport estimates Max eddy speed = 0.30 m s 1, mean drift = +3.7 cm s 1 or ~ 7.4 Sv (no difference between traverses)
27 What do the Mission 1 observations tell us? The standard deviations, σ, for all drift currents are: σ u = 12.3 cm s 1 (E W), σ v = 13.8 cm s 1 (N S) Say 45 drift estimates are independent, the error in the mean N S velocity is: v ε = 13.8/ 45 = 2.0 cm s 1 i.e the error in the section transport is: T ε = ±4 Sv (assuming the Rockall Trough is 200 km wide)
