sgpmoltsedassndclass1X1.a1
Description:
The short names of the U-component and V-component of the wind are incorrectly 
stated as wdir and wspd in the header. This will be corrected when the ingest is changed 
to process later data.
Measurements:sgpmoltsedassndclass1X1.a1:
  • Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir)
  • Mean Wind Speed(wspd)
nsamoltsedassndclass1X1.a1:
  • Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir)
  • Mean Wind Speed(wspd)
nsamoltsedassndclass0X1.a1:

NSA/MOLTS/X1 - Incorrect units
DataStreams:nsamoltsedassndclass1X1.a1
Description:
Misnamed units (m2/m2) should be m2/s2.  Will be corrected when ingest is changed to 
process later data.
Measurements:nsamoltsedassndclass1X1.a1:
  • Turbulent kinetic energy in a layer(turb_kin)

SGP/NSA/MOLTS/X1- value incorrect
DataStreams:nsamoltsedassndclass1X1.a1, sgpmoltsedassndclass1X1.a1
Description:
The omega (wind velocity) variable is not been properly reported every 3rd hour, for all 
stations and sounding levels beginning at the 3rd hour.  It is reported as 0 when it 
should be the forecasted value from the previous hour.
Measurements:sgpmoltsedassndclass1X1.a1:
