Just so I don't forget, these are the tasks which will require manual updating
of the netCDF files for CASES:
1. Tilt PAM sonic data. Tilts determined by Jay Sklar are listed in the WWW
report. They have been applied to the covars from the ASTER sites.
(done 10/15/97 as sonics.nc)
2. Edit out the rain gauge calibrations. An S-object (cases.rain.cals)
containing the times and sites of these calibrations (determined from
logbook) is in my home .Data directory. Note that the site are numbered
1-8 for MRI gauges and 9-16 for the ETIs. I set the rain rates +/- 5 minutes
of these to zero and integrated from the beginning of the project to get
accumulations.
(done 10/15/97 as rainr.nc)
3. Apply Matt's polynomials to convert the CS615 transit times to soil moisture.
These only exist in his (hardcopy) soil moisture evaluation report as of
now.
(done 10/15/97 as soilq.nc)
4. Insert the new lat/lon positions obtained from Peggy & Julie's GPS
measurements. (Though this will be done automatically if covar is rerun?)
These are more accurate, though they haven't changed much.
(not done as of 10/15/97, though the .cdl file is now correct)
5. Compute Rlw.down and Rlw.up from pile, comp, dome, and case. I've found
that Tdome.up is bad, so I only used: R=Pile + Comp^4 + 0.0356*Rsw for
Rlw.up, which shouldn't be too bad. Note that the gain (in
cal_files/pyg.out) for Rpile.up is positive, so no extra sign reversal is
necessary. (Though sfun/CASES97/rad.config has signed=T. Is this wrong?)
(done 10/15/97 as pyg.nc)
6. Tsrfc at site 5 used an emissivity of 0.94, rather than the correct 0.98
used at the other sites. We can correct this using:
T_.98 = T_.94 * (0.94/0.98)^0.25 = T_.94 * 0.9896
(not done as of 10/15/97, though Julie has been notified)
