Subject:
NSA/GNDRAD/C1 - IRT power failure
DataStreams:nsagndrad60sC1.b1
Description:
After performing corrective maintenance which involved turning off power to the GNDRAD 
instruments and data logger, power to the IRT was not restored. The problem was corrected by 
replacing the data logger.
Measurements:nsagndrad60sC1.b1:
  • Surface Infra-Red Temperature Maxima(sfc_ir_temp_max)
  • Surface Infra-Red Temperature Minima(sfc_ir_temp_min)
  • Effective Surface (Skin) Temperature(sfc_ir_temp)

Subject:
NSA/GNDRAD/C1 - Frosting/Condensation
DataStreams:nsagndradC1.00, nsagndrad20sC1.a1, nsagndrad60sC1.b1
Description:
The GNDRAD PIR and IRT comparison was showing the IRT 2-4 W/m^2 greater than the PIR.  
Suspected snow or frost on the instrument(s).  Corrective maintenance performed 10/15/04 at 
21:30 UT.  Optics of both instruments were cleaned.  Upwelling longwave measurement 
agreement restored (+/- 5 W/^2).

Although the relative performance (agreement) of the two instruments improved after 
corrective maintenance (+/- 2 W/m^2), no correction is suggested because the agreement remains 
with the estimated measurement uncertainty of +/- 4 W/m^2 (IRT) and +/-10 W/m^2 (Inverted 
PIR)
