u and v consist of two segments, the first about 4 months
long and the second about 17 months long, separated by a gap
of about 4 months. The gap begins at line 2711 (0400 16 Jul 97)
and ends at line 5718 (1100 18 Nov 97). Salinity ends early at
line 12070 (0300 10 Aug 98) and temperature is not present at
all.
