When tried to publish the processed data
- variable called TAU “TAU” (corrected momentum flux) was all zero ... (old variable, not being used... -9999)
- 2008 and 2009 radiation value (incoming shortwave radiation was too high like 20%
- after 2016. The variable was not being collected after 2016. BB replaced all 0 values after 2016 with -9999, Ameriflux’s preferred fill value.
- Incoming shortwave (light) radiation and incoming PAR (photosynthetically active radiation)
- AmeriFlux suggested linear correction.... Adjust and resubmit
- in 2008 and 2009 were outside of Ameriflux's absolute limits. They also showed a clearly different pattern than later years.
- Net radiation was also too high, but this was because of the problem with incoming shortwave.
- Ameriflux suggested a linear correction. BB’s approach will likely be to fit the problem data against good data from an adjacent (~ 300m away) plot to acquire a correction factor. A simpler but less robust alternative, given that incoming shortwave is largely independent of plot, is to simply substitute good data from an adjacent site for the bad data.can we get the radiation data from somewhere in the campus??
