| Description: | On various days during the China deployment, condensation accumulated on the view port
window of the MPL and compromised its capability to detect clouds. This problem most often
occurred during nighttime hours from May through early September.
During the listed times, cloud retrievals and aerosol profiles should be considered
doubtful or in error.
The dates/times of occurrence are:
