Subject:
MAO/CSPHOT/M1 - No post-deployment calibration
DataStreams:maocsphotaotM1.a1, maocsphotM1.00, maocsphotaotfiltM1.a1, maocsphotppM1.a1,
maocsphotalmM1.a1
Description:
The instrument deployed during this period was lost on the way back to the US. Therefore, 
it could not be recalibrate as is customary. The differences between pre- and 
post-deployment calibrations for such a short deployment are typically quite small, 1%. But 
occasionally there are dramatic shifts that we now won't know about.
Suggestions: 
Be wary. Negative aerosol optical depth or cosine solar zenith angle dependence 

typically indicates a shift in calibration from the pre-deployment data.
