Approximately 47% of the speeds were at or below the current
meter's threshold and have been set to 1 cm/sec. 

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. Since the means of the two series are almost
the same, we suggest that temp 1 be used.
