SGP/SWATS/E1 - Reprocess: Wrong Calibration
DataStreams:sgpswatsE1.00, sgpswatsE1.a1, sgpswatsE1.b1
Description:
Two sensor connections were switched. The East 125-cm sensor was plugged into the East 
85-cm sensor's connection, and vice versa. Technicians corrected the problem on 1440 GMT, 
08/02/00, and returned the instrument to service 10 minutes later at 1450 GMT. As the 
datalogger was confusing the 2 sensors, incorrect calibrations were applied.

The correct calibrations can be applied to the raw data to obtain the correct temperature 
rises, soil moisture, etc. However, this is a rather large amount of work to apply toward 
just 1 measurement profile.  This has been identified as a medium priority reprocessing 
task.

  • Soil Temperature, East Profile(tsoil_E)
  • East profile sensor serial numbers(serial_numbers_E)

SGP/SWATS/E4  - Incorrect "trise", "soilwatpot", and "watcont"
DataStreams:sgpswatsE4.a1, sgpswatsE4.b1
Description:
The "trise" values are too high, therefore the dependent "soilwatpot" and "watcont" 
measurements are also incorrect.

For the first date range:
"trise_W", "trise_E", "soilwatpot_W", "soilwatpot_E", "watcont_W", and "watcont_E"
are incorrect for all 16 sensor locations (each depth on both profiles).

For the second date range:
"trise_W", "trise_E", "soilwatpot_W", "soilwatpot_E", "watcont_W", and "watcont_E" 
are incorrect for the lowest 8 sensor locations (the 60cm, 85cm, 125cm, and
175cm depths on both profiles).

SGP/SWATS/E18 - Incorrect and missing measurements

Description:
There is an erroneous measurement at 2052Z on the 11th. All obs should be disregarded and 
probably should be deleted from the file.

tsoil_W:
From 1007Z on the 7th to 1707Z on the 9th: tsoil_W data is missing or incorrect at the 5cm 
depth. From 1807 on the 9th to 1807 on the 10th, tsoil_W is completely missing and/or 
incorrect. From 1907 on the 10th to 2007 on the 11th, correct tsoil_W data is available 
except for missing data at the 15cm depth.

trise_W:
All trise_W data is incorrect or missing from 1007Z on the 7th to 1807Z on the 10th. From 
1907 on the 10th to 2007 on the 11th, trise_W data is missing at the 15cm depth.

tsoil_E:
From 1007 on the 7th to 1907 on the 9th, trise_E data is missing or incorrect except at 
the 5cm depth. From 2007 on the 9th to 1907 on the 10th, tsoil_E data is missing.

SGP/SWATS/E27 - Reprocess: Incorrect calibrations
DataStreams:sgpswatsE27.b1
Description:
The calibration coefficients for the 5-cm sensor on the East profile are
incorrect. This is causing incorrect soil water content (watcont_E) to be
reported.

SGP/SWATS/E1 - Questionable Soil Moisture Data
DataStreams:sgpswatsE1.00, sgpswatsE1.b1
Description:
Between the 06GMT and 07GMT measurements on January 14th, it appears that some sort of 
non-atmospheric moisture source affected the 4 shallowest sensors (5-cm West & East, 15-cm 
West & East). No precipitation was recorded at the site, but data indicate a sharp 
increase in soil moisture that caused suspicious behavior that gradually lessened through 
January 23rd. Animal intrusion, but more probably adolescent mischief, is suspected.
Measurements:sgpswatsE1.b1:
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, East Profile(trise_E)
  • Soil Water Potential, East Profile(soilwatpot_E)
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, West Profile(trise_W)
  • Volumetric Water Content, East Profile(watcont_E)

SGP/SWATS/E7 - Incorrect Temperature and Moisture Measurement on the East Profile at 35cm 
Depth
DataStreams:sgpswatsE7.b1
Description:
Problem is for the east profile, 35cm depth only: soil temperature measurements were 
incorrect from 7:07 GMT on 12/23 to 9:07 on 12/24. Temperature rise, soil-water potential, and 
water content are incorrect from from the same start time to 11:07 GMT on 12/24.
Measurements:sgpswatsE7.b1:
  • Volumetric Water Content, East Profile(watcont_E)
  • Soil Temperature, East Profile(tsoil_E)
  • Sensor Temperature Rise, East Profile(trise_E)
  • Soil Water Potential, East Profile(soilwatpot_E)

Description:
The dimension "depth" in the netCDF files was incorrectly reported as 8, and has been 
changed. Newer files with the correct smaller depth dimension do not have extra placeholder 
values and thus are smaller in size.
