Subject:
SGP/EBBR/E20 - Pressure Low
DataStreams:sgp5ebbrE20.b1, sgp30ebbrE20.b1, sgp15ebbrE20.b1
Description:
The pressure sensor values dropped several kPa on 13 January 1999 because 
of a sensor malfunction and remained that way until the sensor was 
replaced on 10 February 1999.  Comparison of the pressure before and after
the problem period shows that Bowen ratio was underestimated by 
approximately 6% during the period, resulting in a 6% overestimation of
latent heat flux and a 6% underestimation of sensible heat flux.  
Adjustment of the flux data during the period by these amounts should be
made by the data user.
