The data consist of 2001 observations taken from a balloon about 30 kilometres
above the surface of the earth. In the section of the flight shown here the
balloon increases in height. As radiation increases with height there is a
non-decreasing trend in the data. The outliers are caused by the fact that the
balloon slowly rotates, causing the ropes from which the measuring instrument
is suspended to cut off the direct radiation from the sun. The first column
contains the raw data, the second column the residuals after the removal of a
non-decreasing trend.
