AHATS daily status 6/29/08

Staff: Maclean, Horst, Tong, Khoung

Summary: Chenning and Khoung working on completion of pressure sensor
deployment. They may not finish until Tuesday since they are waiting
for delivery of tubing connectors. Currently no data from downwind-2
and upwind adams; radio down but should have local data storage.

Good wind direction: For the period 6/25 17:00 through 6/29 08:42, we have
30 hours 10 minutes of data periods of length 20 minutes or longer
with wind directions from 195-355 degrees. This includes 10 periods of
length greater than one hour and equates to good periods 34% (warning) of the
time. Note that the daytime periods may be compromised by work on the array,
e.g. installing the pressure sensors.

missing sonics from upwind adam after 05:43 6/29

spd: ok, +/- 15 cm/s
dir: ok, +/- 5 deg
tc: ok, +/- 0.25 deg
w'w': ok, +/- 0.015 m^2/s^2 (30 min avg for second moments)
tc'tc': ok, +/- 0.1 degC^2
u*: ok, +/- 0.03 m/s
w'tc': ok, +/- 0.02 m/s degC
diag: ok, mostly << 1 but some spikes that are likely caused by samples
lost during rf transmission; local data storage should be okay.
