SGP/SMOS/E6 - 6-month Calibration Checks
DataStreams:sgp1smosE6.b1, sgp30smosE6.b1, sgp1440smosE6.b1
Description:
During the time periods specified, the SMOS.E6 tower was lowered for 6-month Calibration 
Checks.   During these times wind data are incorrect and temperature and humidity data may 
be incorrect.

Note, exact times when tower was down or maintenance was being performed is sometimes 
unknown.  Users should use the remaining data from these days with caution.

Calibration results are available from the OMIS database at

SGP/SMOS/E6 - SMOS Wind direction low
DataStreams:sgp1smosE6.b1, sgp30smosE6.b1
Description:
The wind direction reported by the SMOS went from being 7 degrees too low at the beginning 
of 2005 (the 7 degrees is a result of misalignment of the SMOS tower by 7 degrees) to 
15-20 degrees too small by November 2005.

The wind sensor was replaced, bringing the wind direction back to being 7
degrees too small.
