Brewer UV Level 201 Spike Detection and Correction, Time DependentLong-term (2-year) analysis of UV spikes with relation to time. Negative-going and positive-going spikes in the UV spectra are detected and corrected using the Level 201 processing algorithms. The percentage of spikes in UV spectra are calculated for each week of the year. Green bars show the total number of UV scans performed during a given week. Blue bars show the number of spikes detected and corrected during a given week. Red bars show the percentage (or ratio) of spikes to scans for a given week. |
Brewer UV Level 201 Spike Detection and Correction, Wavelength DependentUV Spikes referenced to wavelength counts the number of positive and negative spikes that were detected and corrected at each of 154 wavelengths (286.5 - 3630.0 nm) during a calendar month . Each plot represents spike data (positive or negative) from a single Brewer for a single calendar month. The most recent months are leftmost on the page, with previous months progressing from left to right. Each row contains 12 monthly plots covering the latest year of data. In the example plot shown, eight out of twelve months are shown (to conserve space). Two instruments are represented, the top two rows of plots are positive and negative spike corrections (respectively) for the first Brewer. The third and fourth rows of plots are positive and negative spike corrections (respectively) for the next Brewer. Mouse-Over an image to display its instrument name and spike direction. |
Brewer Event Time SeriesA graphical time series of event markers depicting the starting time of the various Brewer sub-routines that writes data and/or comments into the B-Files, UV-Files, U-Files, Y-Files, and CI-Files. Event codes are shown on the left-side column. The bottom row of markers represents the aggregate of all the events. Event counts are shown on the right-side column. |
Daily Average Ozone Time SeriesTime series plot of Daily Averaged Total Column Ozone values stored in the OZOAVGYY data file. Any combination of instruments can be plotted against one another. |
Individual UV ScansTime series plots of individual UV/UX scan data stored in the UVdddyyy.bbb files. Each individual plot represents one scan during the day. The number of scans completed during a given day is subject to the Brewer's schedule, station latitude, and time of year. The X-Axis can be set to display micrometer step count or time. |
B-File CommentsA query tool that allows B-File comments to be searched for various criteria such as USER comments, error or fault phrases, or specific types of events (brewer routines). Results can be filtered by event type, Brewer instrument ID, and time. |
Brewer Multi-Instrument DisplaysMulti-Instrument Display shows data from all instruments on a single page. Click on a thumbnail image to view a larger image. Available Brewer data types are described below. |
UV/UX Daily Scan SummaryDisplays a summary view of all the UX scans for a single day. Each point of the red trace represents the sum of the photon-counts of wavelengths below 325 nm within a single UX scan. Each point of the blue trace represents the sum of all the photon-counts of wavelengths above 325 nm within a single UX scan. The green trace is the dark counts measured at each UX scan. The Y-Axis Scale can be viewed as Linear or Logarithmic scales. |

Umkehr Scan Daily SummaryUmkehr measurements are performed by the Brewer during sunrise and sunset elevations between 90-70 solar zenith angle. Eight specific wave lengths are scanned; 306nm, 310nm, 313nm, 317nm, 319nm, 323nm, 326nm, and 329nm. Through further processing of these Umkehr data - vertical ozone profiles can be calculated. The left and right panels are sunrise and sunset, respectively. The top panels plot individual wavelengths. The center panel plots differences of sequential scans at 317nm and 319nm. The bottom panels display differences between 329-313nm, 326-310nm, and 323-306nm. |
|||||||||||||
Umkehr Ozone Vertical ProfileOzone vertical profiles derived from Umkehr scans. AM/PM profiles are plotted, if they exist. The higher resolution data are interpolated from the Solution Profiles. Good AM/PM profile sub-title text is color coded GREEN. Bad AM/PM profile sub-title text is color coded RED. AM/PM profiles are considered "good" if their iterations (Iter) < 4 and Residuals (Res) <= 1.0. The latency of these data will vary depending on external processing. The latest available profile data is May 8, 2007. The oldest data available dates to approximately August 2006. |
|||||||||||||
PS Scan Daily Time SeriesDaily time series of PS scan data contained in the brewer Y-Files. The photon counts at 320, 340, 360, 480, 510 and 540 nm are plotted against one another. The Y-Axis Scale can be viewed as Linear or Logarithmic scales. |
|||||||||||||
CI Reference Scan PlotCI Reference Scan plots data contained in the brewer CI-Files against a baseline reference CI Scan. Each Brewer has its own Baseline Reference CI Scan derived from CI scans taken shortly after all the Brewers were calibrated for Ozone in August of 2006. The top panel shows the actual CI scan data (red) and CI reference scan data (blue). The bottom panel shows the ratios of CI_cps / CI_ref at each wavelength (286.5-363.0 nm). |
|||||||||||||
CI Banded Wavelength Ratios Time Series
This plot first takes the CI Scan data and calculates the ratios from the
instrument's Baseline Reference CI Scan. Ratios are calculated by CI_cps/CI_ref.
The CI scan ratios are then divided into wavelength segments or 'bands'.
Ratios within each wavelength band are averaged to produce a single number.
The ranges of the wavelength bands are defined in the figure below.
Each of the 5 traces in the top panel represent the average photon counts for bands 1-5 (286.5nm - 325nm). Each of the 3 traces in middle panel represent the average photon counts for bands 6-8 (325.5nm - 363nm). The bottom panel plots the internal temperature of the Brewer instrument at the time of the CI Scans. |
|||||||||||||
CI Ratio Multi-Day OverlayThis display plots the ratio of CI scan data compared to the instrument's Baseline Reference CI Scan. Ratios are calculated by CI_cps / CI_ref. Each trace on the plot represents one CI scan ratio for a single day. The intent of the plot is to evaluate how CI Scans are changing over time. The recommended time span for this plot is 7 to 30 days. |
|||||||||||||
Dark Count Summary Time SeriesDark Counts of the photo-multiplier tube are measured by various routines including; Direct Sun, Zenith Sky, UV/UX, CI, PS, and Umkehr. This summary plots all the dark counts against one another to identify abnormal dark count levels. |
|||||||||||||
DS/ZS/SL Raw Scan Data
The Brewer takes Direct Sun (DS), Zenith Sky (ZS), and Standard Lamp (SL) measurements in either O3 or NO2 modes. For DS measurements 5 scans are performed. For ZS and SL routines, 7 scans are performed. Raw Photon Counts, Wave Length Ratios, Filter Wheel #2 Position and Dark Count measurements are plotted.
|
|||||||||||||
DS/ZS/SL Raw Scan SummaryScan Summaries are the average of five Direct Sun (DS), seven Zenith Sky (ZS), or seven Standard Lamp (SL) raw scans. O3 and SO2 values, Single and Double Ratios, internal Brewer temperature, and Neutral Density Filter Positions are plotted.
|
|||||||||||||
HG Calibration DataIn order to maintain accurate UV and O3 reading through out the day, the Brewer must take several scans of its internal Mercury Lamp (HG) to compensate for temperature changes. |
|||||||||||||
Aggregate TemperaturesMany of the Brewers sub-routines measure temperatures inside the Brewer's enclosure. The aggregate temperature plot displays all these discrete temperature measurements as a unified time series. If the Brewer is equipped with an internal humidity sensor, these data are also plotted. |
|||||||||||||
R5,R6,SL Daily AveragesThis plot is a modified version of the SL Avg Plot (shown below), giving more resolution to the R5 and R6 values. The Standard Lamp (SL) intensity (photon counts) are plotted in the middle panel. The Brewer's internal Halogen lamp voltage and current values are plotted in the bottom panel. |
|||||||||||||
SL Daily AveragesThe Standard Lamp (SL) Average plot displays data contained in the brewer SLOAVG.nnn and SLNAVG.nnn files. The values of R5, R6, and the photon counts of the Brewer's internal Halogen Lamp are plotted in the top panel. The Brewer's internal Halogen lamp voltage and current values are plotted in the bottom panel. |
|||||||||||||
RS Daily AveragesRun/Stop (RS) measurements are used to determine the timing-cycle of the Brewer's Slit-Mask Motor.

Disable auto-scaling to view a constrained view identifying the expected max/min thresholds for the Run/Stop test. |
|||||||||||||
