EKO pyranometer (Model ML-020VM) provides SW broadband downwelling irradiance (in W m-2) at 10 Hz frequency, which are then averaged to 1 Hz temporal scale. Each day, all 99 stations data are merged into a single file. Data is also provided with observational flagging based on cleanliness of the glass dome and level balance of the sensor platform. These flags were assigned every week during the battery replacement for the entire previous week's data of respective pyranometer station. All pyranometers were calibrated by the manufacturer.
