Approximately 18% of the speeds recorded by this meter were below
the instrument's threshold and have been set to 0.93 cm/sec (half
the threshold). 

Speed ends at line 2055, 1900 12 Jul 95 (about 43 days after
installation). Direction is present throughout. 

This instrument carried a pressure sensor. The pressure record
suggests a depth of about 4000 meters for the current meter,
which clearly is wrong. The pressure series is not useful and
has not been retained.
