     Hi Jim and Forrest,
forrest@1
    17
      
forrest@1
    18
     We recently found out that the data we sent to you two years ago for
forrest@1
    19
     use in your model-data intercomparison activity has  some problems.
forrest@1

    21
     One of our users discovered problems with the TNPP data for Class
forrest@1
    22
     A site tropical forest biomes. For a description of the problem
forrest@1
    23
     and what we've done to correct it are in the attached html file.
forrest@1
    24
forrest@1
    25
     The attached csv file has the correct values.  Please remove the
forrest@1
    26
     old file / data and use the new file.

    28
     We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause.  We understand
forrest@1
    29
     that you have a paper in press that uses these data.  Sorry about
forrest@1
    30
     this.
forrest@1

forrest@1
    32
     I am sending this note to you before we formally make the change
forrest@1
    33
     on our Web site, because you have a paper in press.  When we place
forrest@1
    34
     the revision on our Web site, we will update the data set citation
forrest@1
    35
     and DOI.

On Jan 26, 2009, I moved the original data.81 file to data.81.rev0.bad and
forrest@1
    49
data.81.nc to data.81.rev0.bad.nc.  Then I copied the file provided by the
forrest@1
    50
ORNL DAAC, called EMDI_ClassA_NPP_81_R1.csv, to data.81 and re-generated
forrest@1
    51
data.81.nc using the NCL script clamp/npp/01.read_ascii_81.ncl
