Subject:
SGP/SIRS/E3 - Degraded upwelling longwave data
DataStreams:sgpsirsE3.b1, sgpsirsE3.00, sgpsirs20sE3.a0
Description:
Upwelling longwave values had been showing spikes in the late evening beginning around 
7/5. On 7/16/03 technicians found a rodent nest and cables chewed at pivot point of 
upwelling instrument tower.  Only the upwelling longwave (UIR) instrument case temperature was 
affected but this degrades all of the UIR longwave irradiance measurement. Both UIR and US 
cables replaced on 7/30/03 1600 GMT which fixed the problem.
