Description:	During the time periods specified, the SMOS.E25 tower was lowered for 6-month Calibration Checks. During these times wind data are incorrect and temperature and humidity data may be incorrect. Note, exact times when tower was down or maintenance was being performed is sometimes unknown. Users should use the remaining data from these days with caution.

Subject:	SGP/SMOS/E13 - Questionable data
DataStreams:	sgp1440smosE13.a0, sgp1smosE13.a0, sgp30smosE13.a1
Description:	The values of relative humidity reported by the SMOS at E13 between 18 NOV 96 and 1930 GMT on 30 JAN 97 are too high. Saturation values of 104% to 105% have been reported during this period. A 6-month Verification Check was made on 18 NOV 96 and the SMOS probe did not agree with the reference at that time. The SMOS probe was finally replaced on 30 JAN 97. Data reported since that time appears reasonable.

Description:	Starting on 29 OCT 96, the SMOS at E24 started reporting RH values exceeding the specified maximum value. Lower values of RH may be within tolerances. On 7 NOV 96 during the 6-month Sensor Verifications, the T/RH sensor reported a value of 31% RH that agreed with the reference within specified tolerances. The probe continued to report values which exceeded 104% and was replaced on 11 FEB 97 at 1930 GMT. Reported values since then appear to be within tolerances.

DataStreams:	sgp1smosE7.a0, sgp30smosE7.a1
Description:	The humidity data reported by the Elk Falls (E7) SMOS drifted out of tolerance starting on approximately 4 OCT 96. The RH probe started reporting values exceeding 104% RH. The SMOS underwent a 6-month verification check on 13 NOV 96, but the reference RH sensor was not operating properly at the time. At the mentor's request, the T/RH probe was replaced on 4 FEB 97, but the replacement probe was not operating within specifications. Due to lack of calibrated spare probes, the bad replacement T/RH probe was not replaced until 16 APR 97.

DataStreams:	sgp1smosE8.a0, sgp30smosE8.a1
Description:	When the Wind Monitor was changed at E8 for scheduled PM, the replacement sensor was incorrectly wired to the data logger. It did not effect the wind speed readings, but wind directions had E and W reversed. Thus winds from 15 deg were reported as being from 345 deg, and vice-versa, and winds from 165 deg were reported as being from 195 degrees, and vice-versa.
