DATA RECEIVED FROM TOGA OFFICE

Documentation added 1996-04-23

the sharp drop in early January 1993 agrees with
the signature at Noumea and Rarotonga and the
low trend through 1994 agrees well with Noumea.
No evidence was found in tide staff readings to
suggest a shift. We assume the drop is real.
