Across-shelf mooring array from the northeast shelf of New Zealand

five cross-shelf oceanographic moorings (m1 - m5) were deployed along topex/poseidon 147 line in water depths spanning 80to 1865 m (fig. 1a). the stations, m1 (80 m depth) and m2 (130 m) were on the continental shelf, m3 (438 m) the shelf break,m4 (1105 m) the continental slope, and the most offshore m5 (1865 m) on the continental rise. the deployments lasted longerthan a year and the measurements overlap between 11/5/2015 and 15/5/2016. a total of 46 instruments were installed in the array of moorings (fig. 1). long range (lr) acoustic doppler current profilers (adcps) (75hz) were deployed at stations m3, m4, and m5, and 4 workhorse (wh) adcps (300 or 600hz) were installed near the bottom at m1 and m2, and near thesurface at m4 and m5 and covered the water column shown in red and blue in fig. 1b. the water column was binned every 4 m(wh) or 15 m (lr) by upward looking adcps. all the stations, except m1, had between 4 and 10 sbe 56 temperature sensors (black dots in fig. 1b) and 2 or 3 microcat ctds (green circles in fig. 1b). the temperature sensors were deployed every 10m in the upper 100 m and then every 50 m below that. m2 and m3 had ctds placed near the surface and bottom, whereas m4and m5 had additional ctd at 200 m depth. velocity (temperature and salinity) measurements were taken during a period of 2min. (1 min.) every 10 min or less.

五组跨越不同水深的海洋学锚泊设备（编号m1至m5）被部署在Topex/Poseidon 147号线的沿线，其水深范围介于80至1865米之间（见图1a）。这些站点中，m1（水深80米）和m2（水深130米）位于大陆架上，m3（水深438米）为大陆坡，m4（水深1105米）为大陆斜坡，而最远离海岸的m5（水深1865米）位于大陆隆起处。这些部署持续超过一年，测量数据覆盖了2015年11月5日至2016年5月15日之间的时间段。在锚泊设备的阵列中共安装了46台仪器（见图1）。在m3、m4和m5站点部署了长程（LR）声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCPs）（频率75Hz），在m1和m2站点底部附近以及m4和m5站点水面附近安装了4台工作马（WH）ADCPs（频率300或600Hz），这些仪器覆盖了图1b中用红色和蓝色标示的水柱。使用向上观测的ADCPs对水柱进行了每4米（WH）或15米（LR）的分层。所有站点，除m1外，均配备了4至10个SBE 56温度传感器（图1b中的黑色点），以及2至3个Microcat CTDs（图1b中的绿色圆圈）。温度传感器在表层100米内每隔10米部署一次，然后每隔50米部署一次。m2和m3站点在表层和底部附近放置了CTDs，而m4和m5站点在200米深度增加了额外的CTD。在每10分钟或更短的时间内，每隔2分钟（1分钟）进行一次（温度和盐度）流速的测量。
