Subject:
SGP/RIPBE/C1 - Reprocessed: Cloud liquid water path incorrect
DataStreams:sgpripbe1mcfarlaneC1.c1
Description:
In the calculation of cloud layer liquid water path, the factor representing the width of 
the RIPBE height bin (45 m in cloud layers) was neglected.  Therefore, the cld_lwp 
variable is too small by a factor of 45.  This factor was included in the calculation of cloud 
layer ice water path, so the cld_iwp variable is correct.

Multiply cld_lwp by a factor of 45 to get the correct cloud layer liquid water path.

Reprocessing completed 20121128.
Suggestions: 
Use reprocessed data.
