Subject:
SGP/SIRS/E16 - Tracker Misaligned
DataStreams:sgpsirs20sE16.a0, sgpsirsE16.b1
Description:
Direct Normal Shortwave (NIP) values may be reduced by tracker
misalignment (tracker clock slow by 2 minutes 10 sec on 2/18/04).

Downwelling Diffuse (DD) values may be increased by the tracker
misalignment.

Error amounts can not be accurately quantified.
Suggestions: 
NIP and DD data CANNOT be determined from the DS data due to dome
contamination (see D040303.1)
Measurements:sgpsirs20sE16.a0:
  • Instantaneous direct normal shortwave irradiance, pyrheliometer thermopile
    voltage(inst_direct_normal)
  • Instantaneous uncorrected downwelling shortwave diffuse, shaded pyranometer
    thermopile voltage(inst_diffuse)
