Subject:
TWP/ARSCL/C1  - Reprocess: ARSCL CloudBasePrecipitation field incorrect
DataStreams:twpmmcrmode03v0091clothC1.c1, twparsclcbh1clothC1.c1, twparscl1clothC1.c1,
twpmmcrmode02v0071clothC1.c1, twpmmcrmode01v0101clothC1.c1, twpmmcrmode04v0041clothC1.c1
Description:
The CloudBasePrecipitation field is incorrect and has no physical meaning.  An ARSCL 
processing error occurred when the smet60s data stream format changed, causing the wrong data 
field to be used to supply precipitation measurements to the ARSCL VAP.  The error caused 
no significant degradation in other ARSCL fields, since manual quality control corrected 
any related errors.
Suggestions: 
Use twpsmet60sC1.b1 data stream field "precip_mean" for precipitation measurements.
