                             As of the 2019 JASL update, UHSLC no longer
                             maintains this station, though are still receiving
                             the data via satellite and providing to JASL.

              Present Data : Hourly, daily, and monthly values obtained by:
                    Hourly : 3-point Hanning Filter centered on the hour
                    Daily  : 119-point convolution filter (Bloomfield, 1976)    
                             centered on noon applied to the hourly data        
                             with respective periods of the 95, 50, and 5%      
                             amplitude points at 124.0, 60.2, and 40.2 hours    
                    Monthly: Simple average of all daily values; calculated if  
                             7 or fewer days are missing

              Refernce Levl: Heights are referred to the station tide staff 
                             zero, which is linked to land-based benchmarks. 
                             This reference zero is unique to this station and
                             is not an official datum (chart, national, etc.) 
                             and is not relative to local tidal parameters, 
                             such as mean lower low water.  See the Originators
                             for benchmark descriptions, maps, and the geodetic
                             levelling history.
              Comment      : The data are of good quality.  The daily values
                             agree well with Punta Cana and altimeter data.
