TMP/MET/M1 - ORG not functional
DataStreams:tmpmetM1.b1
Description:
Optical rain gauge was not reporting precipitation until 1/31. Precipitation recorded at 
7:40gmt on 2/4 is not representative of conditions (sensor test).
Measurements:tmpmetM1.b1:
  • ORG precipitation rate mean(org_precip_rate_mean)

TMP/MET/M1 - Wind sensor siting not ideal
DataStreams:tmpmetM1.b1
Description:
According to the manual, the wind sensor should ideally be mounted higher than any object 
within a 300 meter radius. This particular site is bordered by approximately 20 meter 
tall trees (the wind sensor is mounted at 10 meters) from about due west to south/southeast, 
at a distance approximately 60 meters or less. Please reference the instrument handbook 
or contact the mentor for more information.
Measurements:tmpmetM1.b1:
  • Wind direction vector mean(wdir_vec_mean)
  • Wind speed vector mean(wspd_vec_mean)
  • Wind speed, lower, 1-min avg(wspd_arith_mean)
  • wdir_vec_std

  • Humidity, relative, at 21-m height, 30-min avg(rh)
  • Wind Direction(deg)
  • Wind speed, W-to-E component, at altitude, 915 MHz RWP(u_wind)
  • North latitude(lat)
  • time_offset
  • Wind speed, surface, 1-min avg(wspd)
  • time
  • asc
  • Dry bulb temperature(tdry)
  • East longitude(lon)
  • Pressure, atmospheric, constant value of model level, RUC model output(pres)
  • Wind speed, S-to-N component, at altitude, derived from ETA model(v_wind)
  • Altitude above mean sea level(alt)
  • wstat
