Subject:	TMP/XSACR/M1 - Reprocess: Mean Doppler Velocity sign reversed
DataStreams:	tmpxsacrppiM1.a1, tmpxsacrhsrhiM1.a1
Description:	The signs of the mean_doppler_velocity field values are incorrect. The ARM convention for this field is that positive velocities indicate motion away from the radar. However, the velocity data in these files have their signs reversed, so that motion TOWARD the radar has a positive sign.
Measurements:	tmpxsacrhsrhiM1.a1: Mean Doppler Velocity(mean_doppler_velocity) tmpxsacrppiM1.a1: Mean Doppler Velocity(mean_doppler_velocity)

Subject:	TMP/XSACR/M1 - Reprocessing Notice (RID 1161)
DataStreams:	tmpxsacrhsrhiM1.a1, tmpxsacrppiM1.a1
Description:	See below for details of reprocessing that was completed on 20150706. Original DQR category: 5 (Transparent - Does not affect quality). ----------------------------------------------------------- The field 'linear_depolarization_ratio' is misnamed. The field should instead be called 'differential_reflectivity,'
Measurements:	tmpxsacrhsrhiM1.a1: Linear depolarization ratio(linear_depolarization_ratio) tmpxsacrppiM1.a1: Linear depolarization ratio(linear_depolarization_ratio)

01/15/2014	1300	09/13/2014	0759	Incorrect

Subject:	TMP/XSACR/M1 - Incorrect calibration constant recorded
DataStreams:	tmpxsacrhsrhiM1.a1, tmpxsacrppiM1.a1
Description:	Files contain incorrect values for calibration constant(s). All other fields are correct, including reflectivities. For moments files, the affected fields are called 'r_calib_radar_constant_h' and 'r_calib_radar_constant_v.' In spectra files, the global attribute 'cal_constant' is incorrect.
Measurements:	tmpxsacrhsrhiM1.a1: r_calib_radar_constant_h r_calib_radar_constant_v tmpxsacrppiM1.a1: r_calib_radar_constant_v r_calib_radar_constant_h
