| Subject: | SGP/SMOS/E8 - 6-month Calibration Checks |
| DataStreams: | sgp1smosE8.b1, sgp30smosE8.b1, sgp1440smosE8.b1
|
| Description: | During the time periods specified, the SMOS.E8 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
http://www.ops.sgp.arm.gov:591/smos6cal/default.htm
