Sub-Title | Aerosols and solar radiation data |
Data Summary | Direct solar radiation observation and atmospheric turbidity observation at Syowa station (SYO) were started in 1968 and 1985, respectively. Moreover diffuse solar radiation observation, infrared radiation observation, broadband ultraviolet radiation observation, and surface radiation observation were started in 1991, and since then Syowa station had been run as a station of Baseline Surface Radiation Network (BSRN). Observation data is reported to the World Radiation Monitoring Center (WRMC). In addition, quality control of data is performed after return to Japan and data is released by means of Antarctic Meteorological Data (CD-ROM) within one year. |
