Bottom water 0 APCT-12 1.88 0.005 Consistent with predrilling site surveys
3H 24.1 APCT-12 10.4 0.3 Equilibrium temperature not used in later calculations
5H 43.1 APCT-12 11.5 0.3 Some tool motion
9H 82.2 DVTP-1 20.1 0.1 Considerable tool motion
14H 134.2 DVTP-1 ND ND Tool did not penetrate undisturbed formation
17H 247.4 DVTP-1 58.2 0.3 Considerable tool motion

Notes: Depths have uncertainties of ±1.0 m. Tool 12 was used for all APCT tool deployments. The DVTP used probe tip 1, with thermistors F and G. Equilibrium temperatures were estimated by extrapolation of modeled tool response, as described in the text. Temperature uncertainty was estimated based on the least-squares best fit of the observational data to the modeled tool response, in addition to variability in estimated temperatures based on thermal conductivities of 1.0 to 1.5 W/m·K. APCT = advanced piston corer temperature tool, DVTP = Davis-Villinger Temperature Probe, ND = not determined.
