Subject:
SGP/SIROS/E8 - Wrong units for broadband irradiance
DataStreams:sgpsirosE8.a1
Description:
Headers for SIROS, MFR25m and MFR10m give the units for broadband irradiance as 
'watts per square meter' (W/m^2). However, the units are really 'counts'. 
The fields affected are SIROS:  
'hemisp_broadband:units'
'diffuse_hemisp_broadband:units'
'direct_norm_broadband:units'
MFR:
'mfr_up_hemisp_broadband:units'

This problem has existed since the beginning of the data streams, and was corrected 
by Jeff Slater on 1/23/96 (see C960314.2 by Ken Yates that closed P960229.2)
Suggestions: 
Measurements:sgpsirosE8.a1:
  • hemisp_broadband
  • diffuse_hemisp_broadband
  • direct_norm_broadband
