Subject:
SGP/EBBR/E9  - Wind Speed Frozen Stopped By Ice
DataStreams:sgp5ebbrE9.b1, sgp30ebbrE9.b1, sgp15ebbrE9.b1
Description:
An ice storm froze the wind speed sensor to a stopped condition. The bearings
in the sensor appear to be worn, contributing to the problem.

The wind speed and residual wind speed measurements are incorrect.

This sensor failure does not affect the sensible and latent heat fluxes.
Suggestions: 
Measurements:sgp30ebbrE9.b1:
  • Wind speed arithmetic mean(wspd_arith_mean)
  • Wind speed vector mean(wspd_vec_mean)
