 It is our experience that the actual drop rate of T-7 XBTs is about 6
 percent faster than accounted for by the Sippican drop rate equation.
 We therefore applied a uniform stretch to each profile of 1.065.
 Intercomparison of an XBT profile (station 10) with the nearest CTD
 station showed similar structure but substantial offset (1.2
 degrees)." A 1.2 degree adjustment (added) has been applied to each XBT.
