Description: | The solar tracker was not working correctly at this site from 2/3/2005 to 2/5/2005 2359GMT. After this time tracker mounted instruments appear to have been responding correctly. There was no maintenance intervention that rectified the tracking problem. This has happened in the past with the SGP SciTec trackers. |

DataStreams: | sgpsirs20sE24.a0, sgpsirsE24.00, sgpsirsE24.b1 |
Description: | Downwelling shortwave hemispheric readings are occasionally erratic, jumping to very high or very low values for short periods of time. SGP PM techs reseated all Downwelling Shortwave PSP instrument connections on 3/17/2005 approx 1945GMT. The problem did not reoccur after that time but the DS cable was replaced on 3/31/2005 approx 1815 GMT to ensure the problem did not reappear. |

DataStreams: | sgpsirs20sE2.a0, sgpsirsE2.00, sgpsirsE2.b1 |
Description: | During the DIR/UIR instrument changeout on 2/10/2005 the new datalogger program contained incorrect calibration coefficients for the DIR instrument. The program was corrected on 3/10/2005. These data were reprocessed and archived in September 2006. |

Subject: | SGP/SIRS/E24 - Dirt on dome |
DataStreams: | sgpsirs20sE24.a0, sgpsirsE24.00, sgpsirsE24.b1 |
Description: | The Downwelling Shortwave Hemispheric (DSH) Irradiance data were erratic. The Pyranometer instrument dome at this site was likely dirty given the relatively large spread between the measured DSH and derived DSH readings during the middle part of the day (up to 50 W/m^2). Rain on 04/06 most likely contributed to this problem. Preventative maintenance on 4/14 effectively cleaned the pyranometer dome. Preventative maintenance reports indicate dry-water spots on dome when it was cleaned on 4/14. |

DataStreams: | sgpsirs20sE22.a0, sgpsirsE22.00, sgpsirsE22.b1 |
Description: | Upwelling longwave hemispheric data drops out occasionally during the afternoon hours. Maintenance determined that the Upwelling LW Hemispheric irradiance instrument, the PIR, had a failed cable affecting only the thermopile measurement of this instrument. Cable was replaced 7/20/05 2000GMT. |

Subject: | SGP/SIRS/E20 - Downwelling Shortwave PSP Damaged by Lightning |
DataStreams: | sgpsirs20sE20.a0, sgpsirsE20.00, sgpsirsE20.b1 |
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). |

Description: | Calibration coefficient for the downwelling diffuse measurement (8-48 B&W Eppley instrument) was incorrect after the instrument replacement 8/18/2005. Affected downwelling diffuse irradiance data can be corrected: Irr(corr) = Irr(uncorr) / 122.85 * 112.85 (or a overall multiplier of .9186) |

Subject: | SGP/SIRS/E2 - Reprocessed: Longwave Calibration error |
DataStreams: | sgpsirsE2.b1 |
Description: | Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in February 2004. 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 instanteous data records. Still, these data are considered far superior to the originally processed data. The reprocessed data were archived in September 2006. |
