TWP/C1 - Incorrect elevation reported in Manus Data
DataStreams:twpgndrad20sC1.a1, twpgndrad60sC1.a1, twpgndrad60sC1.b1, twpsmet60sC1.a1, twpsmet60sC1.b1
Description:
(From Bill Clements) We have been using 6m MSL as the station
elevation of Momote (Manus).  This was based on information
posted near the station barometer in the Momote Weather Service
Office.  It turns out that the official WMO station elevation
for Momote is 4m MSL and the upper air elevation is 5m MSL.

All Manus instruments except the sonde station are at 4m MSL.
The sonde launching station is at 5m MSL.

TWP/GNDRAD/C1 - Reprocess: Longwave Calibration error
DataStreams:twpgndrad60sC1.b1
Description:
Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in December 2003.  
These modified procedures introduced a calibration bias in the longwave data.  The 
previous procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to 
restore proper calibrations.                                                             
                The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place are 
being reprocessing to remove the calibration bias.  Note, this also affected standard 
deviation, maximum and minimum data fields.
