Not exact matches

For these instruments, no single source of instrumental error is expected to set the overall measurement floor.
The facility has enabled the different instrument teams to calibrate their instruments, and check for uncorrected errors, like excessive scattering and diffusive light contamination in the measurement chambers.
Measurement error can be either be due to instrument error or artifacts due to poor siting («the asphalt effect»).
The error of individual total ozone measurements for a well maintained Brewer instrument is about 1 % (e.g. Kerr, 1988).
We hoped to eliminate the mechanical devices that required more personal attention (taking measurements, changing charts, etc.) At one point the electronic instruments showed a step change that was not reflected by the mechanical recorders and the electronic equipment designer asserted that the mechanical devices must be in error because they did not show the step change.

The measurements had an offset error related to the infrared radiation flux (a net loss, as the instruments involved emitted more IR than they received from clear skies).
There were measurements in 1958 that found large ozone loss in the Antarctic, but these measurement have been found to be false, due to instrument error.
