NSA/GNDRAD/C1 - Reprocessed: Miscalibrated upwelling SW
DataStreams:nsagndrad20sC1.a0, nsagndrad60sC1.b1
Description:
On 7/20/2011 2211GMT Ops replaced the Gndrad upwelling shortwave instrument (PSP) but the 
calibration coefficients weren't changed until 07/25/2011 1842GMT.  

The up_short_hemisp data were reprocessed and archived in September 2011.
Measurements:nsagndrad60sC1.b1:
  • Upwelling Shortwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Unventilated Pyranometer, Maxima(up_short_hemisp_max)
  • up_short_hemisp_std
  • Upwelling Shortwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Unventilated Pyranometer, Minima(up_short_hemisp_min)

NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - Reprocessed: Incorrect calibration coefficients
DataStreams:nsaskyrad20sC1.a0, nsaskyrad60sC1.b1
Description:
On 7/20/2011 starting 2229GMT ops replaced the Skyrad shortwave instruments (PSP/8-48/NIP) 
corresponding to the datastreams (down_short_hemisp, down_short_diffuse_hemisp, 
short_direct_normal) but the calibration coefficients weren't changed until 07/25/2011 1842GMT.  

Data were reprocessed and archived in September 2011.
Measurements:nsaskyrad60sC1.b1:
  • Radiation, shortwave, downwelling diffuse hemispheric irradiance, 1-min avg(down_short_diffuse_hemisp)
  • Radiation, shortwave, downwelling total hemispheric irradiance, 1-min avg(down_short_hemisp)
  • Downwelling Shortwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Ventilated Pyranometer, Maxima(down_short_hemisp_max)

  • Downwelling Shortwave Diffuse Hemisp. Irrad., Ventilated Pyranometer, Maxima(down_short_diffuse_hemisp_max)
  • Shortwave Direct Normal Irradiance, Pyrheliometer, Minima(short_direct_normal_min)
  • down_short_diffuse_hemisp_std
  • Downwelling Shortwave Diffuse Hemisp. Irrad., Ventilated Pyranometer, Minima(down_short_diffuse_hemisp_min)
  • Radiation, shortwave, direct normal irradiance, 1-min avg(short_direct_normal)

Subject:
NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - Noisy data due to grounding issue
DataStreams:nsaqcrad1longC1.c1, nsaskyrad60sC1.b1
Description:
Improper grounding of the IRT serial cable connection caused significant noise in the 
signals of the other SKYRAD instruments. It was corrected by disconnecting the serial cable 
from the RocketPort.
