Speed and direction contain a gap that begins at line 1452 (0000
15 Apr 93) and ends at line 4067 (2200 19 Nov 93). In addition,
both series end early, at line 5384 (1600 8 Mar 94). Approximately
7% of the speeds were at or below the current meter's threshold
(1 cm/sec) and have been set to the threshold value.

This record contains two temperature series, which have been
designated temp 1 and temp 2. The resolution of temp 1 is better
than that of temp 2, and its mean value is different. The PI
suggests that both be made available and that the user make an
independent judgement as to which series is more accurate.
