Subject:	SGP/SMOS/E15 - 6-month Calibration Checks
DataStreams:	sgp1440smosE15.b1, sgp1smosE15.b1, sgp30smosE15.b1
Description:	During the time periods specified, the SMOS.E15 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. Calibration results are available from the OMIS database at http://www.ops.sgp.arm.gov:591/smos6cal/default.htm To view all 6-month calibration reports leave the date time entry blank.
Measurements:	sgp1440smosE15.b1: Maximum Barometric Pressure(max_bar_pres) Maximum Vapor Pressure(max_vap_pres) Maximum Temperature(max_temp) Minimum Barometric Pressure(min_bar_pres) Time of Minimum Barometric Pressure(time_min_bar_pres) Time of Minimum Relative Humidity(time_min_rh) Time of Maximum Temperature(time_max_temp) Minimum of Wind speed(min_wspd) maximum wind speed (gusts)(max_wspd) Time of Minimum Wind Speed(time_min_wspd) Maximum Relative Humidity(max_rh) Minimum Temperature(min_temp) Time of Maximum Barometric Pressure(time_max_bar_pres) Minimum Relative Humidity(min_rh) Minimum Vapor Pressure(min_vap_pres) Time of Maximum Relative Humidity(time_max_rh) Time of Minimum Temperature(time_min_temp) Time of Maximum Wind Speed(time_max_wspd) Time of Minimum Vapor Pressure(time_min_vap_pres) Time of Maximum Vapor Pressure(time_max_vap_pres) sgp1smosE15.b1: Mean Wind Speed(wspd) Beam 0 Temperature(temp) Relative humidity inside the instrument enclosure(rh) Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir) Vapor Pressure (kiloPascals)(vap_pres) Standard Deviation of wind direction(sd_deg) barometric pressure(bar_pres) Wind Speed (vector averaged)(wspd_va) sgp30smosE15.b1: Standard Deviation of Air Temperature(sd_temp) Standard Deviation of wind direction(sd_deg) Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir) barometric pressure(bar_pres) Mean Wind Speed(wspd) Wind Speed (vector averaged)(wspd_va) Standard Deviation of Vapor Pressure(sd_vap_pres) Beam 0 Temperature(temp) Standard Deviation of Relative Humidity(sd_rh) Standard Deviation of Wind Speed(sd_wspd) Relative humidity inside the instrument enclosure(rh) Standard Deviation of Barometric Pressure(sd_bar_pres) Vapor Pressure (kiloPascals)(vap_pres)

Subject:	SGP/SMOS/E15 - Wind Data Incorrect Due to Icing
DataStreams:	sgp1440smosE15.b1, sgp1smosE15.b1, sgp30smosE15.b1
Description:	An ice storm caused the wind data from the RM Young wind sensor to be incorrect. In many instances it was frozen and unmoving, at times it measured values but those are extremely suspect.
Measurements:	sgp1440smosE15.b1: Time of Minimum Wind Speed(time_min_wspd) Time of Maximum Wind Speed(time_max_wspd) Minimum of Wind speed(min_wspd) maximum wind speed (gusts)(max_wspd) sgp1smosE15.b1: Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir) Standard Deviation of wind direction(sd_deg) Wind Speed (vector averaged)(wspd_va) Mean Wind Speed(wspd) sgp30smosE15.b1: Standard Deviation of Wind Speed(sd_wspd) Standard Deviation of wind direction(sd_deg) Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir) Mean Wind Speed(wspd) Wind Speed (vector averaged)(wspd_va)

Subject:	SGP/SMOS - Snowfall caused delayed count of precip
DataStreams:	sgp1smosE1.b1, sgp1smosE11.b1, sgp1smosE13.b1, sgp1smosE15.b1, sgp1smosE20.b1, sgp1smosE21.b1, sgp1smosE24.b1, sgp1smosE27.b1, sgp1smosE3.b1, sgp1smosE4.b1, sgp1smosE5.b1, sgp1smosE6.b1, sgp1smosE7.b1, sgp1smosE8.b1, sgp1smosE9.b1, sgp30smosE1.b1, sgp30smosE11.b1, sgp30smosE13.b1, sgp30smosE15.b1, sgp30smosE20.b1, sgp30smosE21.b1, sgp30smosE24.b1, sgp30smosE27.b1, sgp30smosE3.b1, sgp30smosE4.b1, sgp30smosE5.b1, sgp30smosE6.b1, sgp30smosE7.b1, sgp30smosE8.b1, sgp30smosE9.b1
Description:	A snow/ice storm moved through the SGP region on 01/31/08 bringing below-freezing temperatures, affecting the precip field. Data is suspect during the date/time range specified due to melting ice after temperatures warmed above freezing.
