Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E13 - Automatic Exchange Mechanism Failure |
DataStreams: | sgp5ebbrE13.b1, sgp15ebbrE13.b1, sgp30ebbrE13.b1 |
Description: | The AEM was stuck in the home_15 position or reported near zero home signals during much of the indicated period. The Bowen ratio and latent and sensible heat fluxes were incorrect when the AEM was not operating properly; the periods of incorrect data can be determined from the home signal values. On 7/14/04 the AEM was replaced. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E13 - Improved EBBR CR10 Program |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE13.b1 |
Description: | Effective 20050331.2100, the EBBR.E13 CR10 program was revised to improve the quality of the primary measurements as follows: 1) An RMS procedure is used to determine max and min limits of acceptable soil heat flow. This is applied to the individual soil sets. Measurements outside the limits are rejected and the measurements within the limits are used to calculate the average soil heat flow. 2) Max and min limits are used to determine incorrect values of net radiation, sensible heat flux (h), latent heat flux (e), and automatic exchange mechanism (AEM) signal. If AEM signal is outside the limits, h and e are set to 999s. If net radiation is outside the limits, h and e are set to 999s. If h or e are outside the limits, h and e are set to 999s. Virtually no incorrect soil measurement will affect the primary measurements of h and e. By setting h and e to 999s, it can be easily seen that the primary variables are incorrect; no other interpretation is possible. Prior to 20050331, the improved CR10 program was NOT in effect. DQRs have been submitted for known instances of incorrect soil measurements which affected the quality of the primary measurements of h and e. Note: the DQR begin date is the begin date of the sgp30ebbrE13.b1 data stream. The earlier version of the CR10 program was also used on previous EBBR datastream names (e.g. sgp30ebbrE13.a1). |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E13 - metadata corrections |
DataStreams: | sgp5ebbrE13.b1, sgp15ebbrE13.b1, sgp30ebbrE13.b1 |
Description: | On 20050723, a series of metadata corrections and additions were completed. These metadata changes apply to all EBBR.E13 data collected by ARM back to the installation of the instrument in September 1992. Please see the current metadata for correct information. These changes do not affect data values or quality. The changes are summarized below: 1) Update of "sensor location" information 2) Addition of installation dates for systems 3) Correction of soil type 4) Correction of soil moisture units (from "by volume" to "gravimetric") |
