SGP/SIRS/E22 - Failed NIP sensor cable
DataStreams:sgpsirsE22.00, sgpsirsE22.b1, sgpsirs20sE22.a0

instrument cable from its connector.

SGP/SIRS/E22 - Intermittent upwelling longwave data loss
DataStreams:sgpsirsE22.00, sgpsirsE22.b1, sgpsirs20sE22.a0
Description:
Upwelling longwave hemispheric data drops out occasionally during the afternoon hours.  
Maintenance determined that the Upwelling LW Hemispheric irradiance instrument, the PIR, 
had a failed cable affecting only the thermopile measurement of this instrument.  Cable was 
replaced 7/20/05 2000GMT.
Measurements:sgpsirs20sE22.a0:
  • Instantaneous Upwelling Pyrgeometer Dome Thermistor Resistance, Pyrgeometer(inst_up_long_dome_resist)
  • Instantaneous Upwelling Pyrgeometer Case Thermistor Resistance, Pyrgeometer(inst_up_long_case_resist)
  • Instantaneous Upwelling Pyrgeometer Thermopile Voltage, Pyrgeometer(inst_up_long_hemisp_tp)

sgpsirsE22.b1:

    Standard Deviation(up_long_hemisp_std)
  • Upwelling Longwave Hemispheric Net Infrared(up_long_netir)
  • Upwelling (10 meter) Longwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Ventilated Pyrgeometer(up_long_hemisp)

Subject:
SGP/SIRS/E22 - Reprocess: Longwave Calibration error
DataStreams:sgpsirsE22.b1
Description:
Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in December 2003.  
These modified procedures introduced a calibration bias in the longwave data.  The 
previous procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to 
restore proper calibrations.                                                             
                The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place are 
being reprocessing to remove the calibration bias.  Note, this also affected standard 
deviation, maximum and minimum data fields.
Measurements:sgpsirsE22.b1:
  • Upwelling Longwave Hemispheric Net Infrared(up_long_netir)
  • Downwelling Longwave Hemispheric Net Infrared(down_long_netir)
  • Upwelling (10 meter) Longwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Ventilated Pyrgeometer(up_long_hemisp)
  • Downwelling Longwave Hemispheric Irradiance, Shaded Pyrgeometer(down_long_hemisp_shaded)
