SGP/SMOS/E5 - E5 SMOS SNOW DATA INCORRECT
DataStreams:sgp30smosE5.a1, sgp1440smosE5.a0
Description:
Due to a programming error all snow depth data were reported as 0.  In effect, no snow 
depth data were collected.
Measurements:sgp1440smosE5.a0:
  • Time of Minimum Snow Depth(time_min_snow)
  • Maximum Snow Depth(max_snow)
  • Minimum Snow Depth(min_snow_depth)
  • Time of Maximum Snow Depth(time_max_snow)

sgp30smosE5.a1:
  • Snow Depth Sensor(snow_sen)
  • Existence of snow?(snow)

SGP/SMOS/E21 - Reprocess: Errors in Global Metadata
DataStreams:sgp1smosE21.a0, sgp30smosE21.a1, sgp1440smosE21.a0
Description:
The netcdf files for SMOS.E21 incorrectly list sensor heights at E21, Okmulgee
as being 10m for winds, 2m for temp, RH and vapor pressure, and 1m for barometric
pressure.  The Okmulgee site is a forested site and these sensors are mounted on
a tower above the canopy.  The actual sensor heights are 18m for winds, 17m for
temp, RH and vapor pressure, and 19m for barometric pressure which corresponds
to 3.7m, 2.7m, and 4.7m above average canopy height respectively.
Measurements:sgp1smosE21.a0:
  • Standard Deviation of wind direction(sd_deg)
  • Environmental Temperature (hybrid-b grid)(temp)
  • surface wind speed(wspd)
  • Wind Speed (vector averaged)(wspd_va)
  • Unit Vector Wind Direction(wdir)
  • Vapor Pressure (kiloPascals)(vap_pres)
  • barometric pressure(bar_pres)
  • Relative humidity scaled, by total column amount from MWR(rh)
