Subject: | FKB/MWRP/M1 - Heavy rain and fog at the site |
DataStreams: | fkbmwrpM1.b1
|
Description: | The months of November and December have been very rainy and wet at the AMF site. During
rain events the radiometer does not work properly because of water accumulating on the
window. In addition condensation and fog will affect the data causing very high brightness
temperatures. Although the instrument is equipped with rain detection system to flag bad
data, it is important that the user pays extra attention to the quality of the data during
periods of continuous rain, drizzle or fog by applying the quality checks and screening
for high brightness temperatures. |

Subject: | NSA/MWRP/C1 - Radiometer in mixed scanning-zenith mode |
DataStreams: | nsamwrpC1.b1
|
Description: | After installing the spare radiometer (D080409.2), the data started to be intermittent and
the software froze several times. To test if the problem was due to the scanning
procedure used with the other radiometer, the instrument was run with a zenith-only procedure at
times and with the usual scanning procedure at restart. When restarted with the scanning
procedure the software had problems, so it was decided to run the spare instrument only
with the zenith-viewing mode until our instrument comes back.
The quality of the data should be unaffected. The only difference is that only data
collected at 90 degree angle will be available until our instrument comes back. |

Subject: | NSA/MWRP/C1 - Reprocessed: LN2 calibration |
DataStreams: | nsamwrpC1.b1
|
Description: | On 4/9 a spare radiometer was installed at the site. On 4/18 a LN2 calibration was
conducted. Upon examination of the data it appeared that the LN2 calibration was generally
successful, however the 30-GHz channel was not calibrated properly.
New calibration coefficients for all K-band channels were derived and data for the whole
month should be reprocessed with these newly derived coefficients. I will provide the new
configuration file.
An explanation of the effects of the poor calibration is given in the Instrument Mentor
Monthly Summary report. The poor calibration affected the LWP in particular. Re-calibration
will correct the problem.

Subject: | NSA/MWRP/C1 - Reprocessed: Incorrect calibration |
DataStreams: | nsamwrpC1.b1
|
Description: | The calibration of the MWRP drifted starting on September 21. The drift caused a negative
LWP. On 10/21 I modified the calibration of the 30 GHz channel in an attempt to correct
for the negative bias in LWP. The change in the calibration however caused an excessive
increase in the PWV retrievals. The original calibration values were reinstated on 10/29. I
then recomputed the temperature coefficients as well as the noise diode injection
temperature from tip curves and uploaded the new values on Nov 15 2010.
Reprocess the data from 9/21 to 11/15 with the newly computed coefficients.
