SBUV(/2) Version 8 DVD Information

Errors on the DVD. Below is a list of discovered errors on the DVD.

The units for the example images (Figs. 1,2,5,6,7,8, & 9) should be "ppmv" not "micrograms/gram", that is, Volume Mixing Ratios not Mass Mixing Ratios.
Several December 31st data files include a few scans from the following day, January 1st. Normally this is not a problem, but in these instances the year did not increment properly after December 31st. The affected files are listed below:

NOAA-9 - Dec. 31st for years: 1985, 1987, 1989, 1993, and 1996
NOAA-11 - Dec. 31st for years: 1991, 1993, 1997, 1999, and 2000
NOAA-16 - Dec. 31st for years: 2000 and 2001

The actual DVD filenames being replaced are:
