SGP/SIRS/E2 - Reprocess: Incorrect shortwave radiometer calibration coefficients
DataStreams:sgpsirsE2.00, sgpsirsE2.b1
Description:
During the pyrgeometer instrument (PIR) changout a datalogger program was loaded with 
incorrect calibration coefficients for the shortwave instruments.  The affected measurements 
were : downwelling diffuse (DD), upwelling shortwave(US), direct normal (NIP) and 
downwelling shortwave(DS)

Recalculate irradiances by determining original mV signal and reapplying the correct 
calibration coefficients.  For each one minute irradiance value perform the following 
calculations by instrument:
DD(corrected) = (DD/107.24)*118.11
US(corrected) = (US/113.19)*118.21
NIP(corrected)= (NIP/120.17)*119.08

SGP/SIRS/E21 - Shadowband Misalignment
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE21.a0, sgpsirsE21.00, sgpsirsE21.b1
Description:
The NIP reported values close to zero and downwelling shortwave global and diffuse were 
equivalent due to tracker failure.  

Maintenance replaced tracker 2/27, but couldn't replace instruments until 03/02 2000 GMT 
due to bird poop contamination.

SGP/SIRS/E5 - anomalously low NIP readings
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE5.a0, sgpsirsE5.00, sgpsirsE5.b1
Description:
Direct normal (NIP instrument) irradiance readings fall anomalously on 3/17 18:43GMT to 
less than half the expected values during clear sky conditions.  NIP readings returned to 
normal on 3/28/04 12:00. Maintenance on 3/29/04 19:48 revealed no unusual contaminents. 
Precipitation on 3/27 (measured by the SMOS system) probably cleared the NIP window of 
contaminents before scheduled maintenance.

SGP/SIRS/E8 - Possible Contamination of DS PSP instrument
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE8.a0, sgpsirsE8.00, sgpsirsE8.b1
Description:
Downwelling hemispheric shortwave values drop at about 1500 GMT under clear sky 
conditions, typically from about 14:00GMT to 16:00GMT.  This may be due to a dirty PSP but 
maintenance on 03/23/04 18:11 GMT revealed no more than typical light dust.  The problem was 
essentially undetectable by  03/31/04 12:00. The time of day that the problem exists appears 
to be an exagerated PSP cosine response.  No obvious reason presents why the problem 
appeared and then disappeared within this two week period.

SGP/SIRS/E21 - Instrument logger time problem, Unknown
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE21.a0, sgpsirsE21.00, sgpsirsE21.b1
Description:
Values of diffuse hemispheric shortwave radiation differ from derived values by at most 70 
Wm^(-2).  The incident appears to be isolated to 3/21, 3/22, and 3/23. An estimation of 
solar noon using downwelling shortwave hemispheric irradiance from the PSP shows solar 
noon to oocur at around 1845GMT on 3/21. Calculated solar noon occurs at E21 at 1831GMT for 
3/21/2004.  There appears to be a time discrepancy in the datalogger for these dates.  
04/01 is the next date with enough sun to determine solar noon and compare to calculated.  
The data from this date appears correct.  Ronald Reed [rreed@ops.sgp.arm.gov] reports 
the logger did not receive any reportable time updates during the late March time period.  
We don't know what happened during these three dates but from 3/24 on data looks acceptable.

SGP/SIRS/E2 - Reprocessed: Longwave Calibration error
DataStreams:sgpsirsE2.b1
Description:
Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in February 2004. 
These modified procedures introduced a calibration bias in the longwave data.  The 
previous procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to 
restore proper calibrations.

The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place have been reprocessed to 
remove the calibration bias.  The reprocessed 60 second averaged data are based on 3 
instantaneous 20 second data records rather than on 60 1 second instanteous data records.  
Still, these data are considered far superior to the originally processed data.  The 
reprocessed data were archived in September 2006.

procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to 
restore proper calibrations.

The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place have been reprocessed to 
remove the calibration bias.  The reprocessed 60 second averaged data are based on 3 
instantaneous 20 second data records rather than on 60 1 second instantaneous data records.  
Still, these data are considered far superior to the originally processed data. The 
reprocessed data were archived in October 2006.
