Subject:
SGP/SWATS/E7 - Sensor failure, 35cm E
DataStreams:sgpswatsE7.b1
Description:
The 35cm East profile data spiked out of range on 20040106. Soil temperature is incorrect 
at 0407 GMT, and all 35cm E data are incorrect at 0407 and 0507 GMT.

The 35cm East profile sensor failed on 20040127 around 1300 GMT. All data from this sensor 
are incorrect or missing until 20040208.

The 35cm East temperature rise readings were noisy and inconsistent with the rest of the 
data 20040317-20040623. This also caused the matric potential and water content data to be 
suspect.

The 35cm East soil temperature measurements were incorrect beginning 20041223 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.
Suggestions: 
Use 35cm W measurements
