Surface Solar Radiation Dataset at Zhongshan Station, Antarctica

The long-term (1989.3-2020.3) estimated DGSR constructed by a random forest (RF) model using conventional meteorological observation data andobserved DGSR. Column 1: Year. Column 2: Month. Column 3: Day. Column 4: DGSR data from RF model in “MJ/m2” unit. The long-term estimated DGSR provides a more detailed solar radiation data for us to understand and study the role of Antarctica in global climate change and the interaction between snow, ice and atmosphere.
