Approximately 14% of the speeds registered by this current meter
were at or below the instrument's threshold (1.5 cm/sec) and have
been set to the threshold value. 

The direction sensor failed 467 hours (19.5) days before the end
of the record. This portion of the direction series has not been
included here.
