NIM/ECOR/M1 - Flux Data Suspect for Some Wind Directions
DataStreams:nim30ecorM1.b1
Description:
NIM: For some wind directions the horizontal fetch was not representative of the field in 
which the AMF was located.  Therefore, for the wind direction ranges 90-170 (buildings) 
and 220-280 (trees) degrees, the fluxes are affected by insufficient fetch and  surfaces, 
buildings, or vegetation that are not similar to the local field conditions.
Measurements:nim30ecorM1.b1:
  • Corrected sensible heat flux(h)
  • Latent heat flux(lv_e)
  • CO2 flux(fc)
  • friction velocity(ustar)

NIM/AOS/M1 - Flow controller failure
DataStreams:nimaosM1.a1, nimaosauxM1.a1, nimaosccnM1.a1
Description:
Following a power outage at the site both a PID controller for the main sample flow as 
well as a circuit board on the reference nephelometer were inoperable. The PID controller 
was replaced on 5/18 and the neph circuit board was replaced on 6/22. On a site visit in 
August the mentor found the PID had not been programmed correctly and was reading erroneous 
flows. The actual flow was at 50% of the recorded flow. Because the sample flow is 
diluted by 50% this makes most if not all of the sample flow from 5/18 to 8/11 from the diluter.

NIM/ECOR/M1 - Effects on ECOR CO2 Flux and Concentration By Aircraft
DataStreams:nim30ecorM1.b1
Description:
Aircraft landings, departures, and running aircraft on the airport pad
were found to produce large spikes in the half hourly CO2 flux and small spikes in CO2 
concentration on many days during the entire deployment of the AMF at NIM.  This influence 
was found on 40% of the days in March and April 2006 and sometimes for multiple periods in 
a day; this was typical of  the year of data.  The spikes range from only several 
micromoles s-1 m-2 to one hundred or more for flux (a typical spike was in the twenties) and 
near zero to 1.0 mmoles m-3 for CO2 concentration (typically around 0.15).

The aircraft influence was caused by persistent easterly winds; the airport
terminal pad and the nearest part of the runway were almost directly to the
east of the ECOR location.

Occasionally an influence on water vapor density was detected, but this was fairly rare 
and usually of very small magnitude.

NIM/AOS/M1 - Data processing problem
DataStreams:nimnoaaaosM1.b1, nimnoaaaosavgM1.b1, nimaosM1.a1
Description:
The AOS data was reprocessed for the AMF, SGP and NSA sites. There was an error in the 
processing of the corrections for the PSAP absorption signal such that a low pass filter was 
implemented for the scattering data used in these corrections.The difference between the 
corrected and previous data is < 0.05 Mm-1 (below the instrument detection limit) and 
should not have a significant effect on the previous data. Data will be reprocessed at a 
later time when more significant changes to the data processing are implemented.
