Description: | The latitude, longitude and altitude of the El Reno (E19) site were incorrectly entered into the ARM database. The correct location of the SIRS.E19 instrument is: Lat: 35.557N Lon: 98.017W Alt: 421m |

Subject: | SGP/SIRS/E20 - Downwelling Shortwave PSP Damaged by Lightning |
DataStreams: | sgpsirsE20.00, sgpsirsE20.b1, sgpsirs20sE20.a0 |
Description: | The PSP was damaged by a lightning strike on 8/04/05 (22:10 GMT). Data from other radiometers are good after this event. The PSP, NIP and shaded 8-48 were replaced 8/17/05 and the system returned to service at 18:40 GMT. Downwelling Shortwave (DS) data from the unshaded PSP during this period is reported as 0.0 W/sq m. The DS can be computed from available Direct Normal (NIP), Downwelling Diffuse (DD), and the computed Solar Zenith Angle (SZA) using the following equation: DS = NIP * Cos(SZA) + DD Estimated uncertainties of the computed values are actually lower than those of the measured DS (+/- 3% or 4% vs. +/- 5% to 10% respectively, depending on SZA). |

Subject: | SGP/SIRS/E19 - Reprocessed: Longwave Calibration error |
DataStreams: | sgpsirsE19.b1 |
Description: | Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in July 2003. These modified procedures introduced a calibration bias in the longwave data. The previous procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to restore proper calibrations. The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place have been reprocessed to remove the calibration bias. The reprocessed 60 second averaged data are based on 3 instantaneous 20 second data records rather than on 60 1 second instantaneous data records. Still, these data are considered far superior to the originally processed data. The reprocessed data were archived in October 2006. |
