Description: | Soil Temperatures #2 and #3 were intermittently incorrect. #3 appeared to be okay after the J-panel was replaced. #2 continues to be flaky, suggesting that the sensor itself has a problem. A DQPR has been submitted to replace #2. The indicated measurements that are calculated using soil temperature are also suspect. However, the intermittent problems normally occurred during night times and were fairly small in magnitude, thereby having little effect on the sensible and latent heat fluxes. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E15 - Soil Moisture Coefficients Incorrect |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE15.b1 |
Description: | The soil Moisture coefficients used for E15 were incorrect from the time of installation of the system in program version 8. On 9 July 02 parameter 4 (an offset value) of program step 136 was changed from 9.5264 to the correct value 0.95264 (this error had been made by the vendor). The error masked the real problem (wrong soil type) and after 9 July 02 resulted in very low soil moisture measurements. The coefficients used were for coarse sand. On 28 Sep 04 I visited the E15 site and found the soil type a fine sandy clay or fine sandy loam. I changed the coefficients at 1509 GMT to those for a very fine sandy loam; this produced reasonable soil moistures for the soil type. The old coefficients in parameters 4 through 9 for step 136 of the program were: 0.95264, -6.7859, 36.224, -58.619, 25.073, 4.2278 The new coefficients are: 10.241, -27.943, 49.523, -12.648, -52.643, 38.054 |

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). |

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 20050324, 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 sgp30ebbrE2.b1 data stream. The earlier version of the CR10 program was also used on previous EBBR datastream names (e.g. sgp30ebbrE2.a1). |

Description: | Effective 20050323.1800, the EBBR.E4 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.
