TWP/SMET/C1 - Reprocess: Skewed wind direction 1 data
DataStreams:twpsmet60sC1.00, twpsmet60sC1.a1, twpsmet60sC1.b1
Description:
Wind direction 1 data is incorrect. 
Manus SMET wind direction for Wind-1 (upper unit) was apparently skewed
from its original position as a result of checking direction calibration. 

As near as we can tell the position of the sensor was rotated clockwise
Somewhere in the range of 45-90 degrees, most likely in steps 22.5 degrees.

Data comparison performed on 3-2-00, using a small amount of data from 
this instrument.
Measurements:twpsmet60sC1.b1:
  • Wind #1 direction standard deviation(wind1_dir_sd)
  • Wind #1 direction vector average(wind1_dir_vec_avg)

TWP/SMET/C1 - Wind Direction alignment method
DataStreams:twpsmet60sC1.00, twpsmet60sC1.a1, twpsmet60sC1.b1
Description:
During RESET10 we discovered a problem with wind direction from WIND1 (upper
anemometer).  During RESET8, WIND1 was corrected by rotating the alignment
ring instead of the anemometer.  This resulted in a better agreement between
the 2 anemometers, but is not the correct way to align an anemometer. The
alignment ring was readjusted for true north and the anemometer reset in
the proper slot (the original problem).

TWP/C1 - Incorrect elevation reported in Manus Data

Description:
(From Bill Clements) We have been using 6m MSL as the station
elevation of Momote (Manus).  This was based on information
posted near the station barometer in the Momote Weather Service
Office.  It turns out that the official WMO station elevation
for Momote is 4m MSL and the upper air elevation is 5m MSL.

All Manus instruments except the sonde station are at 4m MSL.
The sonde launching station is at 5m MSL.

TWP/SMET/C1 - Reprocess: Miscalibrated windspeed2 data
DataStreams:twpsmet60sC1.a1, twpsmet60sC1.b1
Description:
A replacement anemometer (WSP2) was installed but the new anemometer calibration 
coefficients were not put into the logger. The multiplication factor was 0.09708 when it should 
have been 0.09763 (very small difference)the offset was 0.36 when it should have been 0.3 
(a difference 0.06 m/s).

TWP/SMET/C1 - Reprocess: Wind Speed #2 incorrect
DataStreams:twpsmet60sC1.a1, twpsmet60sC1.b1
Description:
Wind Speed #2 sensor was reporting values 10 times above the actual value.  During an 
update to the logger configuration file the calibration multiplier was incorrectly entered.  
The multiplier inserted was .97630 when it should have been .09763.  This caused the 
readings from this sensor to be incorrect.

TWP/SMET/C2 - Negative rainfall rates
DataStreams:twpsmet60sC2.b1
Description:
Due to limitations of the Zeno dataloggers all voltage measurements
from the optical rain gauge (ORG) were converted to rainfall rates. 
This resulted in negative values for rain rates.  Any value below
0.10 mm/hr should be considered to be 0 mm/hr.  New dataloggers 
alleviated this problem.
