Subject:
NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - IRT measurements during precipitation events
DataStreams:nsaskyrad60sC1.b1
Description:
The IRT measurement of sky/cloud temperature was in question during
precipitation events because rain or snow could accumulate in the
upward-pointed lens barrel. This was corrected by reorienting the
IRT to measure the sky temperature as reflected by a gold mirror.
Suggestions: 
Use present weather sensor (nsapwsC1.b1) data to determine timing of precip events.
Measurements:nsaskyrad60sC1.b1:
  • Sky Infra-Red Temperature(sky_ir_temp)
  • Sky Infra Red Temperature Maxima(sky_ir_temp_max)
  • Sky infrared temperature, standard deviation(sky_ir_temp_std)
  • Sky Infra-Red Temperature Minima(sky_ir_temp_min)
