Subject:
TWP/SKYRAD/C3 -  Reprocessed and Corrected: Incorrect NIP cal coefficient
DataStreams:twpskyrad60sC3.b1
Description:
DATA REPROCESSED and CORRECTED: 

During installation of the new Campbell datalogger system and associated program, the NIP 
(S/N 33551E6) was assigned an incorrect calibration coefficient. A coefficient of 116.01 
W/m2/mV was applied when it should have been 124.378 W/m2/mV. The correct calibration 
coefficient has now been applied.

The data were archived April 2017. Please retrieve the reprocessed data for use in your 
analysis.

--- ORIGINAL DQR DESCRIPTION ---
---------------------------------------------------


During our site visit comparison at Darwin we observed that the skyrad NIP was reading 
about 50 w/m2 lower than the comparison cavity radfiometer and the replacement NIP on the 
comparison stand. We found that the calibration coefficient for the NIP (responsivity at 
45o)was put in as 8.64X10-6. The NIP was new and had not been calibrated at SGP. The 
factory number was 8.04X10-6. We corrected the calibration coefficient and the instruments 
agreed to better than 5 w/m2.
