Subject: | TWP/MFRSR/C2 - Shadowband misalignment |
DataStreams: | twpmfrsrC2.a0, twpmfrsrlangleyC2.c1, twpmfrsrC2.b1, twpmfrsrlangplotC2.c1 |
Description: | During these two periods, there was a shadowband misalignment on the Nauru MFRSR. The shadowband alignment was adjusted several times during this period: on May 17, May 24, June 10, and June 28. The shadowband motor was also replaced on June 28 (all dates 2005). During the flagged periods (May 1-17, June 2-28), the misalignment resulted in significant noise and occasional biases in the direct and diffuse irradiance variables. Optical depths derived from this instrument will also be of poor quality during this period. |
Suggestions: | Do not use direct and diffuse irradiances or optical depths during specified periods |
