SGP/ECOR/E16 - Data suspect due to inability to run QC
DataStreams:sgp30ecorE16.b1, sgpecorE16.00
Description:
Some QC checks were unsuccessful due to a communication failure that resulted in 
contaminated QC field data.

All the data that are based on water vapor density and CO2 concentration are "suspect" 
because many of the standard QC checks were not employed.

SGP/ECOR/E16 - Failed IRGA
DataStreams:sgp30ecorE16.b1
Description:
The infrared gas analyzer (IRGA) failed on Nov. 2, 2004, 02:00; the system continued to 
operate without H2O and CO2 data until Nov. 9, 2004, 15:30; then it stopped due to another 
hardware failure. The system was returned to service on Nov. 12, 2004, 18:00.

The latent heat flux and CO2 flux data are irrevocably lost for the period from Nov. 2, 
2004, 02:00 to Nov. 12, 2004, 18:00.

SGP/ECOR/E16  - Reprocess: Incorrectly flagged (marked as "bad") H2O/CO2 data
DataStreams:sgp30ecorE16.b1
Description:
Due to system clock instability on ECOR computers their system time is adjusted 
approximately once per hour; sometimes this adjustment leads to backward time jumps over midnight, 
into the previous day. In this case all the data based on CO2/H2O measurements might be 
erroneously marked as bad. Below is a list of times when that might have happen.

SGP/ECOR/E16 - Flux Measurements Incorrect
DataStreams:sgp30ecorE16.b1
Description:
The ECOR datastream was corrupted; this happens when the ECOR program produces a 
datastream of the wrong length (i.e., leaves one or more measurements out).

Fluxes and some other measurements are incorrect.

Reprocessing will not correct this problem; the raw data are corrupted.
Measurements:sgp30ecorE16.b1:
  • Latent heat flux(lv_e)
  • Corrected sensible heat flux(h)
  • temp_irga
  • Mean CO2 density(mean_c)
  • CO2 flux(fc)

SGP/ECOR/E16 - LI-7500 Pressure and Temperature missing
DataStreams:sgp30ecorE16.b1
Description:
The pressure and temperature measurements were not recorded; the LI-7500 serial datastream 
was not being captured by the ECOR system because of a serial port failure.

Some degradation of the latent and sensible heat fluxes may have occurred during high 
summer temperatures.  The error in the fluxes would be no more than 5 to 10% of the 
measurement, still well within the measurement error of the system.
