Description:
The TSI was located in an obstructed view location for the beginning of the deployment.  
Trees and the AMF VANs are within the field of view of the instrument and appears to have 
affected the data processing.  On 7/15/2011 the instrument was moved.

PGH/MWRP/M1 - Reprocessed: Time corrected
DataStreams:pghmwrpM1.b1
Description:
The computer clock had the daylight saving on so the measurements time was off 1 hr. The 
setting was changed on 7/15. Data for 20110620-20110715 were time corrected and 
reprocessed.

PGH/MWRP/M1 - Channel interference
DataStreams:pghmwrpM1.b1
Description:
The 23.834-GHz channel was displaying high noise levels. It started with intermittent 
noise, but became more persistent with time. The problem was identified as interference from 
the near-by MWR. On 12/7 the radiometers were re-oriented and the noise level went down.
Measurements:pghmwrpM1.b1:
  • Humidity, relative, prof. from sfc.-10km, from water vap. dens. and temp. prof.(relativeHumidity)
  • Water vapor, total precipitable, derived from Tbright using stat. retrvl.(totalPrecipitableWater)
  • Liquid water content, cloud, vert. prof. sfc.-10km, from Tbright stat. retrvl.(liquidWaterContent)
  • Liquid water path, from brightness temperatures using statistical retrieval(liquidWaterPath)
