These data originally were recorded with a time increment of
15 minutes. All of the time series in this record have been
filtered and decimated to one point per hour. The filter is a
low-pass cosine-lanczos filter with half-amplitude at 10 cycles
per day. The filter removes completely all frequencies higher
than 12 cycles per day; frequencies lower than 8.7 cycles per
day are passed unattenuated.
