Subject:
ASI/CEIL/M1 - data communication
DataStreams:asiceilM1.b1
Description:
The data were intermittent, especially on 7/19/2016, due to poor serial communication. The 
cable was repaired on 7/21 and the serial device server and instrument were power-cycled 
on 7/28.
Measurements:asiceilM1.b1:
  • alt_highest_signal
  • range_bounds
  • tilt_angle
  • Third cloud base height(third_cbh)
  • measurement_parameters
  • range
  • window_transmission
  • status_flag
  • sum_backscatter
  • Cloud, base height, lowest base sensed(first_cbh)
  • laser_temperature
  • Backscatter, ceilometer, range and sensitivity corrected(backscatter)
  • background_light
  • laser_pulse_energy
  • Cloud, base height, second lowest base sensed(second_cbh)
  • vertical_visibility
  • status_string
  • detection_status

Subject:
ASI/MPL/M1 - Reprocess: New overlap correction
DataStreams:asimplpolfsM1.b1
Description:
Vendor has recently provided an overlap correction which needs to replace the overlap 
currently being included in the data files. This does not affect MPL data quality.
Measurements:asimplpolfsM1.b1:
  • overlap_correction
  • overlap_correction_heights
