All of the time series have been low-pass filtered and decimated
to two points per day, by the PI. The filter is described as having
a "40-hour cutoff." CMDAC does not have the original unfiltered
data.

Pressure is maximum and constant during 14 Feb 96 - 26 Feb 96
and again for about 2 weeks near the end of the record (29 Sep
96 - 14 Oct 96). The pressure sensor appears to have gone offscale
during both episodes.

The current meter's temperature sensor was not specially calibrated
for this experiment. That is, the manufacturer's calibration was
used. Since the response of a sensor and its circuitry may drift
substantially in time, these temperatures should be used with caution.
