SGP/SIRS/E37 - Instrument problem
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE37.a0, sgpsirsE37.b1
Description:
The short_direct_normal value is having some issues.  Data is missing starting 0123 GMT on 
6/30 through current.  Data is either close to 0 on clear days or not following normal 
trends prior to the aforementioned period.  down_short_diffuse_hemisp is also suffering 
from some issues.  

Problem looks to have started on 6/17, but may have started earlier than that.

SGP/SIRS/E37 - Tracker and NIP repairs
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE37.a0, sgpsirsE37.b1
Description:
The solar tracker at this site was replaced; communication problems with the replacement 
tracker were performed 7/2/12; NIP repair performed 7/9/12. Data for direct normal (NIP) 
and diffuse (8-48) are incorrect and nonrecoverable during affected period. Longwave data 
are generally unaffected by such tracker failures.

  • down_short_diffuse_hemisp_std
  • Radiation, shortwave, downwelling diffuse hemispheric irradiance, 1-min avg(down_short_diffuse_hemisp)
  • Radiation, shortwave, direct normal irradiance, 1-min avg(short_direct_normal)

SGP/SIRS/E37 - Reprocess: Partial shading
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE37.a0, sgpsirsE37.b1
Description:
Shading of the PSP radiometer occurred after sunrise each day of the reported date period, 
during the time between 1230 and 1315 UTC. Issue is present in the downwelling shortwave 
hemispheric variable. The shading was caused by the presence of an antenna that was 
later relocated. Data will be reprocessed and designated as missing for the affected time 
period each day (except where NIP is greater than 150 W/m^2).
Measurements:sgpsirsE37.b1:
  • Radiation, shortwave, downwelling total hemispheric irradiance, 1-min avg(down_short_hemisp)
  • Downwelling Shortwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Ventilated Pyranometer, Maxima(down_short_hemisp_max)
  • down_short_hemisp_std
