SGP/BRS/C1 - Reprocessed and Corrected: Incorrect Calibration Coefficients

DATA REPROCESSED and CORRECTED: 


Lightning strike on or near 6/2/2004 took the BRS NIP (31747E6) out of service, on or near 
6/15 the NIP was replaced and the datalogger program was changed to reflect the new NIP 
(31343E6). On 8/5/2004 the DIR (Downwelling longwave) instrument was changed out and a 
new program was loaded to reflect a new DIR. The new program contained the original 
installed shortwave instrument calibration coefficients including NIP 31747E6. Thus from 8/5 to 
when the shortwave instruments were changed out on 12/3 the wrong s/n and calibration 
factor (i.e. 31747E6) was applied to the actual NIP (31343E6) installed at BRS C1. The 
calibration coefficients now correctly match NIP 31343E6.
