Subject: ENA/MWRP/C1 - Reprocess: Bias in brightness temperatures
Affected Datastreams: enamwrpC1.b1
Description The brightness temperatures between 22.234 and 26.234 GHz show a bias of 1.7 to 3.6 degrees K. Data needs to be recalibrated. As a consequence the retrieved precipitable water vapor has a positive bias.

Subject: ENA/MWRP/C1 - Occasional outages of surface T/RH readings
Affected Datastreams: enamwrpC1.b1
Description Occasionally the surface temperature and relative humidity readings are not updated and the measurements appear flat for short times. The primary data are most likely not affected because the surface measurements are flatlined for short intervals when big changes are not expected.
