These plots are for all scans that have processed coadds that have magnitude thresholds for unconfused areas, which are 15.50, 14.75 and 14.25 mag for J, H and K, respectively, which have any coadds which violate a threshold of 0.10 for the residual H background sigma. The list of scans is given below.

In the table below, scans marked by '*' are ones identified by the quality analysts as being severely affected by airglow. Note the quality job done by R. Hurt, D. Kirkpatrick and R. Cutri - they have picked out nearly every single scan with a maximum residual H background sigma above 0.20 past 970913n.
