Comment:
The mounting heights given in the comment section for each parameter are those at the time of deployment (2015-12-28). Questionable data has been flagged. Main limitations are seen in: 1) Long-wave radiation measurements are affected by rime at least in the period from 2017-04-05 until 2017-09-06; 2) Wind speed measurements are affected by rime at least from 2017-05-02 until 2017-09-06; 3) The thermometer/hygrometer are rimed from the 2017-03-06 until 2017-11-11. Humidity measurements in this time need to be disregarded. Temperature measurements will be affected as well, e.g. inertia due to the rime cover of the instrument. 4) Datalogger issues with the internal voltage reference caused peaks in pressure and wind direction measurements. These are marked as invalid data.
