 (5) BRIEF DESCRIPTION of DATA FILE:  A 32.5-day record of temperature and
     sub-surface pressure from a mooring in the Satilla River.

 (6) KEYWORDS:  Satilla, Mooring E, temperature, pressure

 (7) RESEARCH LOCATION:  Satilla River Mooring E at SL+11.40 (2-character river
     code + 4-digit code for upstream distance from river mouth in km).
     Latitude: 30.986 degrees N; Longitude: 81.514 degrees W.
     Mean water depth was 10.3 meters.

 (8) EXPERIMENTAL DESIGNS AND METHODS: A Sea-Bird Electronics SBE-16 SEACAT
     data logger (s/n 849) was moored 0.66 meters above bottom on a frame.
     Temperature and sub-surface pressure were recorded every six minutes 
     beginning 26 March 1997 at 0000 GMT (YRDAY 85.0) and ending 27 April 1997 
     at 1200 GMT (YRDAY 117.5).
