Description: | Some soil parameters were slightly incorrect since EBBR.E27 was installed in May 2003. While the coefficients were being updated, data collection was suspended resulting in missing data for the specified period. No significant effects (1% or less) on the surface heat flux data would have occurred from using the slightly incorrect coefficients. Therefore, flagging of the surface flux data from the time of installation of E27 is unwarranted. |

Description: | The wrong CR10 program loaded from the storage module on 9/15/04. During the previous change of program, an attempt was made to store the new program in the storage module; site ops techs did not notice that this attempt failed, leaving the old program in the storage module. When power was cyled on 9/15/04, the old program with flat sm5 coefficients loaded into the CR10. The "flat" coefficients resulted in the sm5 soil moisture hovering around 30%. 15 minute raw sm5 resistances were correct. Average soil heat flow, sensible heat flux, and latent heat flux were not significantly affected and so are not included in the list of incorrect measurements. |

Subject: | SGP/EBBR/E27 - Improved EBBR CR10 Program |
DataStreams: | sgp30ebbrE27.b1 |
Description: | Effective 20050330.1730, the EBBR.E27 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 20050330, 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 sgp30ebbrE27.b1 data stream. The earlier version of the CR10 program was also used on previous EBBR datastream names (e.g. sgp30ebbrE27.a1). |
