SGP/QCRAD/E10 - Tracker failure
DataStreams:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2
Description:
During the night of 11/05-06 2004 the tracker failed at this location. During CM on 12/01, 
power cycling returned the tracker to service. However, tracker was not properly 
tracking in the AM. Tracker failed again sometime near 01/01/2005.	CM reloaded the tracker 
program and realigned the tracker on 01/26/2005 1600GMT correcting the problem.

Documented in instrument DQR: D041206.1
Measurements:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2:
  • Irradiance, shortwave, direct normal, pyrheliometer(short_direct_normal)
  • Best Estimate Global Downwelling Shortwave Hemispheric Irradiance(BestEstimate_down_short_hemisp)
  • Irradiance, shortwave, downwelling, diffuse, hemispheric, pyranometer(down_short_diffuse_hemisp)

SGP/QCRAD/E10 - Noisy upwelling longwave
DataStreams:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2
Description:
Upwelling Infrared irradiance signals noisy resulting from problems with pyrgeometer 
signal cable connections.

Documented in instrument DQRs D030110.37, D030110.36, D031027.1
Measurements:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2:
  • Radiation, longwave, at 10-m height, upwelling hemispheric irrad., 1-min avg(up_long_hemisp)

Subject:
SGP/QCRAD/E10 - Noisy upwelling shortwave flux
DataStreams:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2
Description:
Beginning 6/22, upwelling shortwave values frequently dropped well below 0 W/m^2 
(occasionally dropping below -50 W/m^2) during the nighttime hours.  Daytime values were 
excessively high and noisy. Instrument wiring was suspected and was corrected 07/02/2003.

Documented in instrument DQR D030701.1
Measurements:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2:
  • Irradiance, shortwave, upwelling, hemispheric, 10 meter(up_short_hemisp)

Subject:
SGP/QCRAD/E10  - Upwelling LW Tc/Td/flux questionable
DataStreams:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2
Description:
Case and dome temperatures for upwelling longwave flux are sporadically questionable 
during this period corresponding to additional noise in the longwave fluxes.

No instrument DQRs exist documenting this problem.
Measurements:sgpqcrad1longE10.s2:
  • LWupTc
  • LWupTd
  • Radiation, longwave, at 10-m height, upwelling hemispheric irrad., 1-min avg(up_long_hemisp)
