Subject:
SGP/SIROS/E24 - wrong units for broadband irradiance
DataStreams:sgpsirosE24.a1
Description:
Headers for SIROS, MFR25m and MFR10m give the units for
broadband irradiance as 'watts per square meter' (W/M^2).  
However, the
 units are really 'counts'.  The fields affected 
are SIROS:
   'hemisp_broadband:units'
   'diffuse_hemisp_broadband:units'
   'direct_norm_broadband:units'
MFR:
'mfr_up_hemisp_broadband:units'

This problem has existed since the beginning of the data streams, and was
corrected by Jeff Slater on 1/23/96 (see C960314.2 by Ken Yates that closed
P960229.2)
Suggestions: 
Measurements:sgpsirosE24.a1:
  • diffuse_hemisp_broadband
  • direct_norm_broadband
  • hemisp_broadband
