Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E26 - Multiplexer 2 Failure From High Temperature |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | Multiplexer 2 is failing during times of control box temperatures above 29 degrees C. The failure begins in the last channel and progresses to lower channels as the temperature increases. It has not yet been determined whether the failure is in the relays or a solid state component of the multiplexer. This condition is probably due to the aging of the device and the millions of cycles that this 10 year old device has made. More failures of this sort may occur in the future. A cure is being sought aside from replacement of the multiplexers to prevent the problem. The indicated measurements need to be inspected to determine which ones are usable. |

DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | One of the multiplexers exhibited dropouts of the channels, beginning with the last channel at temperatures above about 30 C and moving backward through the channels as the temperature rose. High temperatures affected the switching speed of the multiplexer. This is the first time that this behavior has been documented in a Campbell Scientific multiplexer. The multiplexer had been in continuous field use for 10 years and had experienced probably more switching cycles than what is normally expected of the device in that period. The multiplexer was replaced to solve the problem. |

DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | In a trip to E26, I found that a bad spark gap through which the barometer was powered was causing pressure measurements to be incorrect. The pressure readings oscillated with the voltage of the EBBR battery. During daytime the voltage and thus the pressure would increase and vice versa during dark hours. Apparently only the positive side of the power supply was properly connected through the spark gap and thus the voltage received by the pressure sensor was lower than required to power it properly. Under this condition the perssure measurement varies with voltage level. The pressure measurements therefore had a diurnal signature and usually were incorrect. The decreased pressure during most times would cause latent heat flux to be slightly overestimated and sensible heat flux to be slightly underestimated. |

Description: | An ice storm froze the wind speed sensor to a stopped condition. The wind speed and residual wind speed measurements are incorrect. This sensor failure does not affect the sensible and latent heat fluxes. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E26 - Aging Pressure Sensor Output Changes With Supply Voltage |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | The E26 EBBR pressure sensor experienced the poor internal voltage regulation problem experienced at other sites last year. Aging of the internal voltage regulator caused the pressure output to drop by 1-2 kPa (0.1-0.5 kPa is normal) when the Sun rose and the solar panel goosed the battery voltage up. The sensible and latent heat fluxes were not significantly affected. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E26 - Incorrect soil type coefficients used |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | The soil type coefficents for soil moisture were incorrect from the day of the system installation on, making soil moisture values too large. As a result, soil heat flows were overmeasured, and sensible and latent heat fluxes were underestimated. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E26 - Improved EBBR CR10 Program |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | Effective 20050331.1700, the EBBR.E26 CR10 program was revised to improve the quality of the primary measurements as follows: 1) An RMS procedure is used to determine max and min limits of acceptable soil heat flow. This is applied to the individual soil sets. Measurements outside the limits are rejected and the measurements within the limits are used to calculate the average soil heat flow. 2) Max and min limits are used to determine incorrect values of net radiation, sensible heat flux (h), latent heat flux (e), and automatic exchange mechanism (AEM) signal. If AEM signal is outside the limits, h and e are set to 999s. If net radiation is outside the limits, h and e are set to 999s. If h or e are outside the limits, h and e are set to 999s. Virtually no incorrect soil measurement will affect the primary measurements of h and e. By setting h and e to 999s, it can be easily seen that the primary variables are incorrect; no other interpretation is possible. Prior to 20050331, the improved CR10 program was NOT in effect. DQRs have been submitted for known instances of incorrect soil measurements which affected the quality of the primary measurements of h and e. Note: the DQR begin date is the begin date of the sgp30ebbrE26.b1 data stream. The earlier version of the CR10 program was also used on previous EBBR datastream names (e.g. sgp30ebbrE26.a1). ~ |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E26 - Average Soil Heat Flux Incorrect |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | A typo in the version 9 EBBR program caused average soil heat flow to be zero, resulting in both sensible and latent heat fluxes being approximately 20 watts per meter squared too large during the middle of the day. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E26 - metadata corrections |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE26.b1 |
Description: | On 20050723, a series of metadata corrections and additions were completed. These metadata changes apply to all EBBR.E26 data collected by ARM back to the installation of the instrument in June 1992. Please see the current metadata for correct information. These changes do not affect data values or quality. The changes are summarized below: 1) Update of "sensor location" information 2) Addition of installation dates for the systems 3) Correction of soil moisture units (from "by volume" to "gravimetric") |
