Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E13 - failure of sensors |
DataStreams: | sgp5ebbrE13.b1, sgp15ebbrE13.b1, sgp5ebbrE13.00, sgp30ebbrE13.b1 |
Description: | A lightning strike to the central cluster area shortly after 0800 GMT on July 17 caused failure of several EBBR sensors: both humidity probes, the barometer, soil heat flux #3, soil moisture # 1 and the wind direction. These failed sensors caused sensible, latent, and average soil heat flux to be incorrect until site operations performed maintenance on July 24th. Site Operations found a loose connection from soil moisture probe #1, removed barometer SN 6578 and replaced it with SN 6507, removed soil heat flux sensor #3 with SN 923022 and replaced it with SN 933199, repositioned the wind direction sensor - which was rotated approximately ninety degrees clockwise from its proper position, and removed the right humidity probe SN 460412 and replaced it with SN 460428. |
