NSA/METTWR/C1 - CMH mirror dirty
DataStreams:nsamettwr4hC1.b1
Description:
The CMH mirror was in need of cleaning.  The data is suspect from 05/28/05 through 
07/04/05 as intermittently poor readings occurred.  After 07/04/05 the data was incorrect as the 
mirror was excessively dirty.
Measurements:nsamettwr4hC1.b1:
  • Chilled Mirror Calculated Vapor Pressure(VPCMH)
  • Chilled Mirror Calculated Relative Humidity(CMHRH)
  • Chilled Mirror Dew Point(CMHDP)
  • Chilled Mirror Temperature(CMHTemp)
  • Chilled Mirror Calculated Saturation Vapor Pressure(SatVPCMH)

NSA/METTWR/C1 - Data 1-minute behind
DataStreams:nsamettwr4hC1.b1
Description:
Data from the Barometer, Chilled Mirror Hygrometer and the Present Weather Sensor were 
one-minute behind due to timing problems collecting data from the Serial Data Multiplexer 
that handled these sensors.
Measurements:nsamettwr4hC1.b1:
  • 15 minute Present Weather Code(PwCod15mi)
  • 1 minute Average Visibility(AvgVis1mi)
  • Chilled Mirror Dew Point(CMHDP)
  • Instant Present Weather Code(InstPwCod)
  • Chilled Mirror Calculated Saturation Vapor Pressure(SatVPCMH)
  • Chilled Mirror Calculated Relative Humidity(CMHRH)
  • Chilled Mirror Calculated Vapor Pressure(VPCMH)
  • 1 hour Present Weather Code(PwCod1hr)
  • Cumulative Snow Sum(CumSnow)
  • 10 minute Average Visibility(AvgVis10m)
  • Chilled Mirror Temperature(CMHTemp)
  • Precipitation Rate(PcpRate)
  • Cumulative Water Sum(CumH2O)
  • Present Weather Sensor Alarm(PWSAlarm)
  • Atmospheric Pressure(AtmPress)

NSA/METTWR/C1 - Reprocess: Wind direction data incorrect
DataStreams:nsamettwr4hC1.b1
Description:
Wind direction data is off by 30 degrees for all wind sensors.  The 40-m tower was 
misaligned to true north.
Measurements:nsamettwr4hC1.b1:
  • 40m Vector Averaged Wind Direction(WD40M_DU_WVT)
  • 2m Vector Averaged Wind Direction(WD2M_DU_WVT)
  • 20m Vector Averaged Wind Direction(WD20M_DU_WVT)
  • Sonic Vector Averaged Wind Direction(SonicWD_DU_WVT)
  • 10m Vector Averaged Wind Direction(WD10M_DU_WVT)

NSA/METTWR/C1 - Reprocess: Barometric Data Changed from hPa to kPa
DataStreams:nsamettwr4hC1.b1
Description:
Barometric pressure data was converted from hPa to kPa in order to standardize the 
measurement units among ARM sites and to conform to accepted standard units determined by the 
scientific community.
Measurements:nsamettwr4hC1.b1:
  • Atmospheric Pressure(AtmPress)
