Subject: | NSA/MWR/C2 - Radiometer unstable |
DataStreams: | nsamwrtipC2.a1, nsamwrlosC2.b1
|
Description: | The radiometer had problems maintaining the thermal stabilization between 1/6 and 1/14. |
Suggestions: | Users should disregard data collected during this time, specifically LWP and PWV |
Measurements: | nsamwrtipC2.a1: - Total liquid water along zenith path using tip-derived brightness temperatures(liqtip)
- 23.8 GHz sky brightness temperature derived from tip curve(tbskytip23)
- Noise injection temp at 23.8 GHz derived from this tip(tnd23I)
- Noise injection temp at 31.4 GHz derived from this tip(tnd31I)
- 31.8 GHz sky brightness temperature derived from tip curve(tbskytip31)
- Mixer kinetic (physical) temperature(tkxc)
- Noise injection temp at 31.4 GHz adjusted to tkbb(tnd31)
- Noise injection temp at 23.8 GHz adjusted to tkbb(tnd23)
- Total water vapor along zenith path using tip-derived brightness temperatures(vaptip)
