The pressure record contains evidence that the mooring moved
to a location approximately 15 meters deeper on 31 Jul 98. A
similar anomaly is present in the pressure records from the other
instruments on this mooring. 

Speed contains many gaps and some linear interpolations. CMDAC
has prepared an alternate version of the file in which the speed
gaps have been filled by a combination of linear and predictive
interpolations, and some of the original linear interpolations
have been replaced by predictive interpolations. Neither version
of the file is available on this disk. These data may be released
to the public domain at some point in the future.
