Abstract--Scientists deploy environmental monitoring net-
works to discover previously unobservable phenomena and
quantify subtle spatial and temporal differences in the physical
quantities they measure. Our experience, shared by others,
has shown that measurements gathered by such networks are
perturbed by sensor faults. In response, multiple fault detection
techniques have been proposed in the literature. However, in this
