Subject:	SGP/SMOS/E7 - Wind sensor binding at low wind speeds
DataStreams:	sgp1440smosE7.b1, sgp1smosE7.b1, sgp30smosE7.b1
Description:	The wind sensor bearings were failing causing the wind speed sensor to report lower than actual wind speeds when the winds were below 2 m/s. The wind monitor was replaced on 05/29/2007 but this failed to correct the problem. Subsequently, the site was flooded and it took some time to re-establish normal operations. The wind sensor was again replaced on 10/30/2007. After replacement the wind data from the SMOS compared more favorably to the co-located EBBR data.
