| Summary of measurements |
- -65 CTD hydrological profiles (SBE 911) + O2 (SBE43) + 1 test profile at 140°38.9'E66°20.0'S.
-Deployment of a 75kHz upward-looking, rotating ADCP attached to a chassis set on the bottom.
-3 Microcats including one on the bottom and one at the mooring head 300 m below the surface. The 3rd Microcat was located in the middle of the water column, at a depth chosen with respect to the distribution of water masses at the mooring site.
-The Commonwealth Bay mooring was located: (on 13 January 2008, 7h00 TU) at 660 54.14' S 1420 25.80' E. Water depth: 705 m. 3rd Microcat 500 m deep.
-The Buchanan Bay mooring was located: (on 18 January 2008, 9h50 TU) at 660 50.32' S 1440 56.62' E. Water depth: 927 m. 3rd Microcat 600 m deep.
