FKB/MET/M1 - Optical Rain Gauge Data Incorrect
DataStreams:fkbmetM1.b1
Description:
The Optical Raingauge (ORG) data was incorrect during the listed times.  Ice/frost was 
forming on the lenses causing the ORG to believe there was precipitation occurring.
Measurements:fkbmetM1.b1:
  • Precipitation rate standard deviation(precip_rate_sd)
  • Precipitation rate mean(precip_rate_mean)
  • Precipitation rate maximum(precip_rate_max)
  • Precipitation rate minimum(precip_rate_min)

FKB/MET/M1 - ORG Data incorrect during calibration
DataStreams:fkbmetM1.b1
Description:
The ORG data was incorrect during calibration checks.  The check mimics a precipiation 
event so the precip amounts that were collected were not actually measured.
Measurements:fkbmetM1.b1:
  • Precipitation rate standard deviation(precip_rate_sd)
  • Precipitation rate mean(precip_rate_mean)
  • Precipitation rate maximum(precip_rate_max)
  • Precipitation rate minimum(precip_rate_min)

FKB/RWP/M1 - Chaff released in Murg Valley
DataStreams:fkb1290rwpM1.00, fkb1290rwprawM1.00, fkb1290rwpwindconM1.a1, fkb1290rwpwindmomM1.a0,

Description:
As part of the research activities associated with the COPS field campaign, the research 
center at Karlsruhe released aluminum chaff (2.5 cm in length) in the Murg Valley in order 
to study atmospheric diffusion.  It is possible that some of this chaff drifted over the 
AMF site and thus may have influenced the radar observations (as spurious echos).
