Speed and direction contain many, many gaps that appear to be instances
where current speed was below the sensor's stall speed.

Salinity contains two gaps that apparently were caused by a sensor
malfunction:

   lines 267 (1000 12 Apr 2002) through 295 (1400 13 Apr 2002)
   lines 425 (0000 19 Apr 2002) through 457 (0800 20 Apr 2002)
