Subject:	SGP/SMOS/E5 - 6-month Calibration Checks
DataStreams:	sgp1440smosE5.b1, sgp1smosE5.b1, sgp30smosE5.b1
Description:	During the time periods specified, the SMOS.E5 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.

DataStreams:	sgp1440smosE5.b1, sgp1smosE5.b1, sgp30smosE5.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.
