Normally I would have you re-post your question there but since I wrote 
Type 997, I thought I would help you immediately.  Am I correct in 
understanding that you have measured data at 1 meter below the surface 
in this location?  Is this data the un-disturbed soil temperature before 
the ground heat exchanger placement or data from when it was operating?  
Your answers will help me help you.
