Near-surface bins from this instrument contain a relatively high
percentage of poor returns. CMDAC has discarded bins shallower
than 15 meters and has prepared alternate versions of files from
several other bins. The present file contains a number of spikes
and other artifacts caused by transmissions in which no good
reflections were counted. We have prepared an alternate version
of the file, in which a number of questionable episodes have
been bridged by linear or predictive interpolation. In addition,
u, v and w have been removed in two sections of the alternate
file:
lines 7344 - 7767 (0515 21 Jun 96 - 1500 25 Jun 96)
lines 14485 - 18219 (1430 03 Sep 96 - 1200 12 Oct 96)
Both versions of this current record are available here.
