Subject: | TWP/SMET/C2 - Upper wind sensor failed |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC2.b1 |
Description: | The upper wind speed sensor failed. Wind speeds were reported as 0 m/s and wind direction data was not in agreement with the lower wind sensor. Anemometer was replaced. |

Description: | I forgot to put in the daily report that we took the I van down yesterday to replace the fans in the Clary UPS. This was from 2300z on 24May03 to 0010z on 25May03. Instruments affected : MPL Ceilometer MWR WSI TSI Rex |

Subject: | TWP/SMET/C2 - Negative rainfall rates |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC2.b1 |
Description: | Due to limitations of the Zeno dataloggers all voltage measurements from the optical rain gauge (ORG) were converted to rainfall rates. This resulted in negative values for rain rates. Any value below 0.10 mm/hr should be considered to be 0 mm/hr. New dataloggers alleviated this problem. |

Subject: | TWP/SMET/C2 - Reprocess: Barometric pressure units change |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC2.b1 |
Description: | Barometric pressure data during this time period is reported in hPa. After this time, the data have been converted to kPa to standardize the measurement units among ARM sites and to conform to accepted standard units determined by the scientific community. |

Subject: | TWP/SMET/C2 - Reprocess: Tipping bucket rain gauge added |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC2.b1 |
Description: | A tipping bucket rain gauge was added to the TWP.C2 SMET suite of instruments on 20061129. Effective 20060926, two new variables (count and rain amount) were added to the end of the twpsmet60sC2.b1 datastream. Between 9/26 and 11/29, the data for these two variables are filled with zeros. Users should not use the data during this period as the zeros are not representative of the rain fall at the site. When reprocessing of this datastream occurs these variables will be added for the 19981021-20060926 and data from 19981021-20061129 will be filled with -9999 (missing). |

Subject: | TWP/SMET/C2 - Wind Speed data contain offset due to induced voltage |
DataStreams: | twpsmet60sC2.b1 |
Description: | The marine model of the RM Young wind sensor needs twisted pair shielded cable. The manufacturer did not originally supply the pigtail with twisted pair shielded cable. Use of twisted pair shielded cable for the rest of the cable run to the logger was also not specified. This caused an induced voltage in the wind speed line from the wind direction excitation. The induced voltage varied from sensor to sensor and probably changed anytime the cable was replaced or parts of the wind sensor were repaired or replaced. The induced voltage has been seen to vary from 0.15 m/s to as much as 1.08 m/s. |

Subject: | TWP/VCEIL/C2 - Reprocess: Incorrect serial_number and sum_backscatter fields |
DataStreams: | twpvceil25kC2.b1 |
Description: | Attribute serial_number: In most cases, this field is not representative of the actual serial number of the instrument because the value did not change when an instrument changed locations or was replaced with a spare. Variable sum_backscatter: An out-of-range condition for the "sum of detected and normalized backscatter" was reported as 0 instead of missing (-9999). The valid range is 0 - 0.0999 /srad. This DQR also applies to a1 level data. |
