Bera M., Over T. M.,2016, Hourly solar radiation in Langleys and three digit flag code associated with the data, January 1, 1948 - September 30, 2014
The text file "Solar radiation.txt" contains hourly data and associated flag codes from January 1, 1948, to September 30, 2014. The primary source of the data is the Argonne National Laboratory, Illinois.The first four columns give year, month, day and hour of the observation. Column 5 is the data in Langleys and column 6 is the flag (three digit code). The codes have been created to identify the solar radiation data processing. They indicate if the data are original or missing, the method that was used to fill the missing periods, and any other transformations of the data. Bera (2014) describes in detail an addition of a new code based on the regression analysis of the backup data series at St. Charles (STC) for water years (WY) 2008–10. The user of the data should consult Over and others (2010) and Bera (2014) for the detailed documentation of the data codes.
