Description:
Beginning around 1415 UTC on 08/30, the RH readings for
this instrument were frequently around 0 (sometimes
there are erratic spikes upward from 0 for periods of
time). Rainfall appears to have been the cause of the
erroneous readings, as the instrument appeared to fail
in and around the time of heavy rains.

A maintenance visit occurred on 09/04, afterwards data
returned to normal values.

On 08/30, after heavy rains had fallen, the RH sensor
began occasionally reporting readings of around 0 or

SGP/SMOS/E13 - T/RH sensor failure
DataStreams:sgp1smosE13.b1, sgp30smosE13.b1, sgp1440smosE13.b1
Description:
The T/RH sensor began to fail at high RH% values.  Since this site has an aspirated 
radiation shield, values in excess of the 104% manufacturer limit are not expected to occur due 
to rain or condensation.

SGP/SMOS/E6 - Reprocess: Wind direction offset
DataStreams:sgp1smosE6.b1, sgp30smosE6.b1
Description:
When the SGP.E6 SMOS tower was installed it was not aligned
properly resulting in a 7 degree offset.  On 3/10/05, the
datalogger program was modified to correct for this offset.

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.

SGP/SMOS/E13 -Reprocess:  Wind Speed Values Excessively High
DataStreams:sgp1smosE13.b1, sgp1440smosE13.b1
Description:
The slope value to convert the rotation of the propeller from engineering units to 
meters/second was incorrectly given as .098 when it should have been .0049.  Conversion was 
converting hertz to meters/second when it should have been converting rpm's to meters/second.
