Instructions:
The >
and < buttons
will advance/retreat to the next/previous profile in the
database.
The >>
and << buttons
will automatically move through the data at the rate you
set with the DELAY slider. You can skip
over some profiles when you use these buttons by changing
the drop down selection from "Show every profile"
to some other value. For example, if the RUSS is scheduled
to take 4 profiles every day, changing the selection to
"Show every 4th profile" will cause the
applet to move through the data more quickly by only displaying
one profile for each day.
If
you are at the beginning or end of the data, the affected
directional buttons will be disabled.

You
can select a different lake from the drop-down list of WOW

plot the first profile after that date.
(Note:
After changing the lake or date, press the Get this
Profile button to draw the new plot.)
Click
on a different parameter choice to change the mapped and
plotted parameters.
To see the actual data from the profile that is currently
