The shear probe will collide with plankton and other particulates in the water, and it will occasionally hit jellyfish and even some fish that do not get out of its path. These collisions cause a very large and transient signal from the shear probe. These anomalies typically last for ~50ms, but can be longer in the case of jellyfish. They do not represent shear and bias high the variance of shear and the rate of dissipation. These anomalies should be replaced with data of constant value and the data so modified must be tracked because it is a quality control metric.
