The velocity and temperature series of this record originally
were exceptionally noisy. CMDAC believes that much of the high-
frequency energy was due to a malfunctioning current meter. We
have attempted to mitigate the problem by smoothing all of the
series except pressure with a single pass through a hanning
filter (a three-point filter with weights 1/4, 1/2, 1/4). The
final 19 days of the record were too noisy for repair and have
not been included here.

The given depth of this record is 84 m, but the mean pressure
is only 59 db.
