SGP/ECOR/E14 - Flux Measurements Incorrect
DataStreams:sgp30ecorE14.b1
Description:
The ECOR datastream was corrupted; this happens when the ECOR program produces a 
datastream of the wrong length (i.e., leaves one or more measurements out).

Fluxes and some other measurements are incorrect.

Reprocessing will not correct this problem; the raw data are corrupted.

Description:
The left T/RH probe temperature sensor was spiking some of the time during these periods.

DataStreams:sgp30ebbrE22.b1
Description:
When soil heat flow #3 exceeded the range limit in the EBBR program, it was replaced with 
9999es.  This caused the ave_shf and the sensible and latent heat fluxes to be incorrect.

SGP/EBBR/E8 - Sensible and Latent Heat Fluxes and Net Radiation Incorrect
DataStreams:sgp15ebbrE8.b1, sgp30ebbrE8.b1, sgp5ebbrE8.b1
Description:
The net radiometer top dome was broken and water had gotten into it.

Sensible and latent heat fluxes and net radiation were therefore incorrect.

DataStreams:sgp15ebbrE12.b1, sgp30ebbrE12.b1, sgp5ebbrE12.b1
Description:
Rain entered into the net radiometer through a broken top dome.  Most of the net radiation 
values during the period are much too large, thus sensible and latent fluxes are also 
too large.

SGP/EBBR/E2 - Windspeed sensor failure
DataStreams:sgp15ebbrE2.b1, sgp30ebbrE2.b1, sgp5ebbrE2.b1
Description:
The windspeed sensor developed an abnormally high wind speed threshold due to worn 
bearings.

Wind speeds were often measured to be too low.  Inspect the data to identify suspect time 
periods.
Measurements:sgp15ebbrE2.b1:

DataStreams:sgp15ebbrE13.b1, sgp30ebbrE13.b1, sgp5ebbrE13.b1
Description:
The top net radiometer dome was broken, yielding net radiation, sensible heat flux and 
latent heat flux that were too low.

The BEFLUX (SIRS) net radiation can be used as a replacement for the EBBR net radiation.

To correct the sensible and latent heat fluxes, determine the ratio of SIRS net radiation 
to EBBR net radiation for each daylight half hour and multiply that ratio times H and LE 
to obtain approximate corrected flux values.
