The nominal depth of this instrument is given as 50 meters.
However, the pressure record indicates that the actual depth
of the instrument was closer to 90 meters. This is confirmed
by pressure records from the instruments below this one on the
mooring, which also indicate depths about 40 meters greater than
the given depths.

Speed and direction begin one data cycle later (1 hour) than
temperature and pressure, and end at line 4583 (0100 20 May 92)
- 35 hours earlier than temperature and pressure.
