SGP/SMOS/E7 - Wind sensor binding at low wind speeds
DataStreams:sgp1440smosE7.b1, sgp1smosE7.b1, sgp30smosE7.b1
Description:
The wind sensor bearings were failing causing the wind speed sensor to report lower than 
actual wind speeds when the winds were below 2 m/s.  The wind monitor was replaced on 
05/29/2007 but this failed to correct the problem.  Subsequently, the site was flooded and it 
took some time to re-establish normal operations.  The wind sensor was again replaced on 
10/30/2007.  After replacement the wind data from the SMOS compared more favorably to 
the co-located EBBR data.

SGP/RL/C1 - Invalid liquid water channel data
DataStreams:sgprlC1.a0
Description:
On 20060906, the liquid water channel (LWC) was disabled due to the removal of its 
photomultiplier tube (PMT).  Consequently, the signals recorded for the LWC contain either zero 
or pure noise after that date.

Also, starting on 20070522, the LWC was populated with data from the T2 channel as a 
result of a slight reconfiguration of the data acquisition system.

On 4 March 2008 The LW channel photomultiplier tube was reinstalled in the Raman lidar. 
Effective 0000 UTC on 5 March 2008 the LW channel began producing valid liquid water data 
once again.
Measurements:sgprlC1.a0:
  • Count rate in the high liquid channel(liquid_counts_high)
  • Summed analog signal in the liquid water channel(liquid_analog_high)

Description:
The software used to collect images from the TSI deployed at the NOAA/CMDL station was 
configured with the NSA/C1 latitude & longitude of 71? 19.38' N, 156? 36.93' W. The 
longitude should have been 156? 36.68' W. The effect on the shadowband position was minimal.

SGP/SIRS/E21 - Ventilator Fan Failure
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE21.a0, sgpsirsE21.00, sgpsirsE21.b1
Description:
Start time is uncertain due to length of time this problem existed.  During the time frame 
specified the PSP (down_short_hemisp) and 8-48 (down_short_diffuse_hemisp) ventilator 
fans failed. PM replaced the fans 7/1/2008 1500. 
Ventilator failure does adversely affect thermopile radiometer measurements but the extent 
has not been quantified. The 8-48 is significantly less affected than the PSP. Mentor 
suggests using component sum method detailed in SIRS
instrument handbook where down_short_hemisp = down_short_diffuse +
short_direct_normal * cos (zenith angle) for each time record.
