| Description: | Microbase uses the CloudBasePrecipitation field from the twparscl1clothC3.c1 product to
determine the occurrence of precipitation. The twparscl1clothC3.c1 CloudBasePrecipitation
field is partially derived from the precip_mean field in the twpsmet60sC3.b1 product.
DQR D060426.8 indicates there is a grounding issue with the optical rain gauge and the
precip_mean values from twpsmet60sC1.b1 are suspect over this period.
As a result, the values in the Microbase aqc_precip field could be suspect. Values of
"14" to indicate precipitation in the Microbase aqc_liquid_water_content and
aqc_liq_effective_radius fields could be suspect as well. Because we aren't certain when precipitation
occurred, values of liquid_water_content and liq_effective_radius should be carefully
evaluated during this period. |
