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.

The pressure sensor of this instrument malfunctioned. Data from
it are not useful and have not been included here.

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.
