Problems in recording 2005-08-21 mH There is a mistake in the bottom elevation of this feature and by extention also in the starting elevation of f150. One possible explanation is that the elevation of the measuring rod was recorded inaccurately while writing down these elevations. With the recording m3955 +52 - 124 the bottom elevation of f149 and the starting elevation of f150 is 89.18, which is 12 higher than the starting elevation of f149 and thus cannot be correct. If, however, the instrument hight was 141 cm (as suggested by f150 q395) instead of 124 cm as recorded, the bottom elevation of f149 and the starting elevation of f150 would turn out to be 89.01 m, which seems more accurate. With this solution one problem still remains: with the instrument heigh of 141 cm q395 (f150) was then 33 cm thick, which seems too much, but could perhaps we be accurate. [Input: P821MH.j]
