One further question that may be looked at is:
the command below should give one "Time" value

cpc=ave(soilw,t=1,t=27)/100

and similar is true for "mod" variable.

If above is fine.. Another test can be to check anomaly and see if extends
to negative location,,,something like this:

cpc2=cpc-soilw

mod2=mod-mrso

d cpc2;mod2

Good luck
