Radiation Budget
Description
These data contain down-welled global shortwave hemispherical radiation taken during the Wisconsin FIRE/SRB experiment. The data set consists of measurement\ s taken every minute for 17 ground stations during the daylight hours. The data include values from October 12 through November 2, 1986.The number, location, latitude, and longitude of the FIRE/SRB WISCONSIN sites are: NUMBER LOCATION LATITUDE(DEG N) LONGITUDE(DEG W) 1 FT.
