PVC/SKYRAD/M1 - Intake Fan Failure
DataStreams:pvcskyrad20sM1.a0, pvcskyrad60sM1.b1
Description:
PSP (down_short_hemisp) ventilator fan failed from start of PVC deployment.  Site ops 
repaired/replaced on 8/28. Instrument data are not recoverable.

The down_short_hemisp data are not recoverable but can be re-constructed using the 
short_direct_normal and down_short_diffuse_hemispheric measurements and the following formula: 

Global = Direct * cos(zenith angle) + Diffuse

better aligned with the dewblower outlet.

PVC/SKYRAD/M1 - Reprocess: Incorrect calibration coefficients
DataStreams:pvcskyrad20sM1.a0, pvcskyrad60sM1.b1
Description:
Incorrect programs were used in Skyrad since PVC deployment period began.  The Skyrad 
program was corrected 09/05/2012 approx 20:00GMT. Reprocessing will be required of all 
instruments at this station except the IRT. This will require applying the following 
corrections for the time range specified. 
Serial numbers(incorrectly applied): 
PIR1-DIR: 34306
PIR2-DIR: 34303
Diffuse PSP: 34284
NIP: 34097
PSP-DS: 34293

Serial numbers(correct): 
PIR1-DIR: 34303
PIR2-DIR: 34306
Diffuse PSP: 35751
NIP: 37285
PSP-DS: 37302
    
Data: 
Longwave requires reprocessing using the 20second datastream and applying the following k1 
coefficients (note: the longwave instruments were swapped according to datalogger).
down_long_hemisp1 (old cal) = 0.23041
down_long_hemisp1 (corr cal) = 0.24750
down_long_hemisp2 (old cal) = 0.24750
down_long_hemisp2 (corr cal) = 0.23041

Shortwave only requires application of the following corrections to 1min and 20 second 
data.
down_short_diffuse_hemisp(corr) = down_short_diffuse_hemisp(old value)*(104.45(corr 
cal)/120.91(incorr cal))
short_direct_normal(corr) = short_direct_normal(old value)*(117.25(new cal)/124.97(incorr 
cal))
up_short_hemip(corr) = up_short_hemip(old value)*(119.21(new cal)/108.48(incorr cal))

PVC/SKYRAD/M1 - Reprocess: Incorrect IRT Configuration
DataStreams:pvcskyrad60sM1.b1
Description:
The SKYRAD IRT was installed temporarily (waiting for the new enclosure) in
a vertical orientation, without the use of the gold mirror. When irt_comm
was started, the emissivity parameter in the startup file was not changed to 1.000 
compensate for the absence of the mirror, resulting in a positive bias of about 5 K.

These data may be corrected by adjusting the radiance values for the difference in 
emmissivity.
