SGP/SIRS/C1  - sun tracker power failure

C1 experienced a sun tracker power faulure.  The tracker was reset by onsite personnel 
shortly after the power failed.  Only shaded and direct instruments were affected - i.e. the 
downwelling diffuse measurement from the 8-48 B&W pyranometer and the direct normal 
measurement from the NIP pyrheliometer.  The downwelling longwave PIR data was unaffected by 
this event.

SGP/BRS/C1 - Reprocessed: Longwave Calibration error

Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in June 2004. 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 have been reprocessed to 
remove the calibration bias.  The reprocessed 60 second averaged data are based on 3 
instantaneous 20 second data records rather than on 60 1 second instantaneous data records. 
Still, these data are considered far superior to the originally processed data. The 
reprocessed data were archived in November 2006.

SGP/SIRS/C1 - Upwelling SW cable problem

Starting 11/13/2006, the C1 SIRS Upwelling Shortwave (up_short_hemisp) started to show 
large differences in comparison to co-located E13 SIRS and C1 IRT25m.  After much 
troubleshooting and gnashing of teeth it was discovered that rodents had chewed through the 
instrument cables at the bottom of the tilt tower. Cables were replaced 01/23/2007 1930GMT.

SGP/SIRS/C1 - Reprocess: Incorrect calibration coefficients

Incorrection calibration coefficients were used in the C1/SIRS datalogger program. The 
PSP-US (upwelling shortwave global hemispheric), 30943F3 should be 126.93 not 129.93 
[W/m2/mV].

SGP/SIRS/C1 - Upwelling LW cable problems

Troubleshooting of the upwelling shortwave instrument on Jan 3rd 2007 caused problems with 
the co-located upwelling longwave hemispheric irradiance Eppley PIR instrument (aka 
UIR).  Data dropouts persisted from this date to the final resolution of both shortwave and 
longwave instrument problems.  Rodents had chewed through the instrument cables.  The 
cables were replaced 01/23/2007 1930GMT.
