SGP/SMOS/E8 - Reprocess: Incorrect wind directions from E8 SMOS
DataStreams:sgp1smosE8.a0, sgp30smosE8.a1
Description:
When the Wind Monitor was changed at E8 for scheduled PM, the replacement sensor was 
incorrectly wired to the data logger.  It did not effect the wind speed readings, but wind 
directions had E and W reversed.  Thus winds from 15 deg were reported as being from 345 
deg, and vice-versa, and winds from 165 deg were reported as being from 195 degrees, and 
vice-versa.
Measurements:sgp30smosE8.a1:
  • Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir)
  • Wind direction, 30-min intervals, standard deviation(sd_deg)
sgp1smosE8.a0:
  • Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir)
  • Wind direction, 30-min intervals, standard deviation(sd_deg)
