The pressure series contains values near 220 db for much of the
record. This is somewhat greater than one would expect, given
the stated depth of 201 meters. After 20 March 1980, however,
pressure decreases to about 90 db and later increases again.
One can reasonably guess that this pressure record is not reliable.

Move up one level.
