Subject:
SGP/SWATS/E20 - Incorrect Soil Moisture Data
DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
Due to failure of an electronic component (apparently caused by the onset of 
precipitation), the temperature rise readings from both the west and east profiles (trise_W, trise_E) 
are incorrect at all depths. This also causes the matric potential (soilwatpot_W, 
soilwatpot_E) and water content (watcont_W, watcont_E) data to be incorrect.
Measurements:sgpswatsE20.b1:
  • Soil Water Potential, East Profile(soilwatpot_E)
  • Volumetric Water Content, West Profile(watcont_W)
  • Soil Water Potential, West Profile(soilwatpot_W)
  • Volumetric Water Content, East Profile(watcont_E)
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, West Profile(trise_W)
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, East Profile(trise_E)

SGP/SWATS/E20 - Reprocessing Notice (RID 156)
DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
See below for details of reprocessing that was completed on 20150814.  Original DQR 
category: 5 (Transparent - Does not affect quality).

-----------------------------------------------------------

The dimension "depth" in the netCDF files was incorrectly reported as 8, and has been 
changed. Newer files with the correct smaller depth dimension do not have extra placeholder 
values and thus are smaller in size.

Subject:
SGP/SWATS/E20 - Sensor failure, 5cm E
DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
The temperature rise readings from the 5-cm depth on the east profile are incorrect. This 
also causes the matric potential and water content data for the 5-cm depth to be 
incorrect. The soil temperature measurements were not affected.
Measurements:sgpswatsE20.b1:
  • Soil Water Potential, East Profile(soilwatpot_E)
  • Volumetric Water Content, East Profile(watcont_E)
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, East Profile(trise_E)

Subject:
SGP/SWATS/E20 - Sensor failure, 15cm E
DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
The temperature rise readings from the 15-cm depth on the east profile were incorrect (0 
or -9999) This also caused the matric potential and water content data for the 15-cm depth 
to be incorrect.

Soil temperature data measurements also failed 20060502.  No data from this sensor should 
be used at or beyond this date.
Measurements:sgpswatsE20.b1:
  • Soil Water Potential, East Profile(soilwatpot_E)
  • Volumetric Water Content, East Profile(watcont_E)
  • Soil Temperature, East Profile(tsoil_E)
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, East Profile(trise_E)

SGP/SWATS/E20 - Sensor failures
DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
Following a period of missing values (-9999) from 08/05/05-08/17/05, sensors at several 
depths failed.

Temperature rise values from the 60cm West and 85cm East profile sensors were very noisy 
after 08/17/05. These data, including matric potential and water content, were incorrect.

Temperature rise values from the 85cm West and 125cm East profile sensors are reported as 
0 after 08/17/05. Matric potential and water content data for these sensor were also 
incorrect.  Soil temperatures for these depths were unaffected.

Temperature rise and soil temperature measurements for the 60cm East and 125cm West 
profile sensors were reported as 0 or -9999 after 08/17/05. Matric potential and water content 
data for these sensors were also incorrect.
Measurements:sgpswatsE20.b1:
  • Soil Water Potential, East Profile(soilwatpot_E)
  • Volumetric Water Content, West Profile(watcont_W)

SGP/SWATS/E20 - Incorrect soil moisture data
DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
After 12/20/2007, temperature rise values for all sensors (still operational at the time) 
were much too high, on the order of 10's of degrees C. Matric potential and water content 
data for these sensors were also incorrect.

  • Volumetric Water Content, West Profile(watcont_W)

DataStreams:sgpswatsE20.b1
Description:
The East 25 cm sensor t-rise values dropped to zero on 7/11. The t-rise values came back 
up on 7/22 0200 GMT, but again were missing from 7/25 1600 GMT through 7/27 1700 GMT.  Ops 
reseated connection.
