Subject:
TWP/SMET/C3 - Intermittent Pressure Sensor Failure
DataStreams:twpsmet60sC3.b1, twpsmet60sC3.a1
Description:
The Barometric Pressure sensor was intermittently failing at TWP site C3 Darwin.  At times 
there were large pressure fluctuations occurring on the order of 24 mb in a few minutes. 
 Times of large pressure fluctuations are readily apparent in the data.  At these times 
the data should be carefully analyzed before determining it's usefulness.  In between the 
periods of large fluctuations the readings appear to be stable.  It is still suggested 
that independent pressure data be obtained for comparison before use.
Suggestions:
