| Description: | During the entire India deployment the Skyrad system was configured with incorrect
calibration coefficients for the shortwave instruments. The program hadn't been updated since
the previous deployment in the Azores.
The following instrument data were reprocessed with the following correction multipliers:
PIR1-DIR(down_long_hemisp1): OK, no correction required
PIR2-DIR(down_long_hemisp2): OK, no correction required
Diffuse 8-48 (down_short_diffuse): 116.95(correct)/120.91(incorrect) = .96725
NIP (short_direct_normal): 127.03(correct)/124.97(incorrect) = 1.01648
PSP-DS (down_short_hemsip): 111.29(correct)/108.48(incorrect) = 1.02590
IRT: calibration should be validated by instrument mentor (Vic Morris): mult=26,
offset=173.2
Correct serial numbers:
Diffuse 8-48 (down_short_diffuse): 34066
NIP (short_direct_normal): 34135E6
PSP-DS (down_short_hemsip): 33942F3
The data were recalibrated and reprocessed. The corrected data were archived in February
2013. |
