SGP/EBBR/E18 - Reprocess: E18 EBBR Net Radiometer Calibration
DataStreams:sgp30ebbrE18.b1, sgp5ebbrE18.b1
Description:
When the CR10 program was loaded in the storage module of the newly 
installed EBBR unit at E18 on 10 September 1997, an incorrect 
calibration for the net radiometer was present.  The incorrect calibration
had apparently been entered into the storage module by the vendor before
the unit was shipped.  The .DOC file showed the correct calibration; 
therefore, we did not suspect a problem until comparisons with 
radiometers at other sites nearby were performed.  The program with the 
correct calibration was entered on 18 June 1998.  The 15 minute mv_q 
values were not affected.  The 5 and 30 minute q values during the period
above need to be corrected; multiply positive q values by 0.684, multiply 
negative values by 0.811; Sensible (h) and Latent Heat (e) fluxes for the
period need to be recalculated with the equations below.

e = -(q + ave_shf)/(1 + bowen)

h = -(e + ave_shf + q)
