Subject: | TWP/SMET/C3 - Intermittent Pressure Sensor Failure |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC3.a1, twpsmet60sC3.b1 |
Description: | The Barometric Pressure sensor was intermittently failing at TWP site C3 Darwin. At times there were large pressure fluctuations occurring on the order of 24 mb in a few minutes. Times of large pressure fluctuations are readily apparent in the data. At these times the data should be carefully analyzed before determining it's usefulness. In between the periods of large fluctuations the readings appear to be stable. It is still suggested that independent pressure data be obtained for comparison before use. |

Subject: | TWP/SMET/C3 - Negative rainfall rates |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC3.b1 |
Description: | Due to limitations of the Zeno dataloggers all voltage measurements from the optical rain gauge (ORG) were converted to rainfall rates. This resulted in negative values for rain rates. Any value below 0.10 mm/hr should be considered to be 0 mm/hr. New dataloggers alleviated this problem. |

Subject: | TWP/SMET/C3 - Reprocess: Tipping bucket rain gauge added |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC3.b1 |
Description: | A tipping bucket rain gauge was added to the SMET suite of instruments effective 20060926. Two new variables (count and rain amount) were added at the end of the twpsmet60sC1.b1 datastream. When reprocessing of this datastream occurs these variables will be added with -9999 (missing) as the value for dates prior to gauge installation. |
