Real-time Station Status Reports
» Marsh Landing Climate Station
Recent reports:
4/15/2007-4/17/2007: Station was toppled during a storm so no data were recorded during this period
Prior reports:
10/2/2006: Total PAR naming problem resolved - prior raw and processed data edited accordingly
8/10/2006: Total PAR apparently reported as Total Solar radiation in NOAA HADS data stream - situation is under investigation (data arrays interpreted as total PAR in portal data sets)
8/4/2006-8/10/2006: Total PAR sensor offline
8/3/2006: Automatic 2 hr data harvests resumed (data now acquired from NOAA HADS data server instead of direct modem download)
6/22/2006-7/5/2006: Station taken offline for data logger and communications upgrade (real-time data harvests suspended until communications are re-established and new data access protocols are developed)
2/8/2005-2/12/2005: Remote data harvesting interrupted due to communications problems with the station
6/6/2004-8/19/2004: Relative humidity sensor out of calibration (numerous >100% readings)
4/8/2004-5/14/2004: Air temperature/humidity sensor offline for repair
11/20/2003: Uploaded revised program to begin logging total solar radiation data (LiCor pyranometer online); data logger interruption from 12:00-20:00 GMT
11/10/2003: Brief data logger interruption during station maintenance (12:00-19:15 GMT)
7/25/2003-7/28/2003: The station stopped logging data after a program update, so all data is missing from 7/25/2003 23:00 through 7/28/2003 17:15 GMT
6/3/2003-6/23/2003: Precipitation values are suspect based on comparison with NWS/UGAMI and NADP gauges on Sapelo and based on observations of bird droppings occluding the rain gauge orifice (cleaned on 6/23)
6/1/2003: Station was offline from 6/1/03 22:30 EST to 6/2/03 7:30 EST (more power problems suspected)
5/20/2003: Power and communications problems resolved, partial data acquired for 5/16-5/20
5/16/2003: Communications lost to the station
5/13/2003: The station began experiencing periodic interruptions in data logging late at night that resolved spontaneously by mid-morning (solar panel or battery problems suspected and under investigation)

Prior reports:
2/2/2007-2/28/2007: Wind and air temp and pressure sensors failed after a freezing event - sensors replaced
9/3/2006-1/3/2007: Wind sensor offline and no wind data are available - replaced with a new unit
6/23/2006-6/26/2006: Station offline and no data are available during the outage
3/9/2006-4/1/2006: Dissolved oxygen sensor offline
8/23/2005-?: Anemometer data contains periodic spikes to 30m/s (maximum value)
9/20/2005-9/23/2005: Air temperature sensor offline or data not available
9/15/2005-9/23/2005: Oxygen sensor offline or data not available
8/14/2005-8/23/2005: No data available due to instrumentation problems at the station
2/12/2005-2/21/2005 : Remote data harvesting interrupted - real-time data temporarily not available from the USGS database for this station
2/10/2005: 5 hour interruption in data due to hydrographic instrument swap
8/28/2004-9/1/2004: Dissolved oxygen sensor offline
6/26/2004-6/30/2004: No data was recorded for unspecified reasons
12/13/2003-12/17/2003: All sensors except air temperature were offline due to an unspecified problem
5/15/2003-12/13/2003: Dissolved oxygen readings suspect (continuously <60% or >110% saturation, with most values flagged as questionable)
5/15/2003: Dissolved oxygen readings shifted downwards (many readings flagged as <60% saturation)
5/10/2003: Dissolved oxygen readings shifted abruptly upwards (some readings flagged as >110% saturation)
1/24/2003-2/27/2003: Oxygen sensor offline
