SE.ACMF Meteorological observations - Global radiation hourly

Purpose: Describes the current weather and, over time, the climate. Mainly used for research and development in meteorology and climatology, as well as for energy research and biological research. Unit: W/m2 Characteristics: Measured global (short-wave) radiation at automatic radiation stations, hourly average. What is measured is the downward radiation against a horizontal surface. Can also be seen as accumulated energy value per unit area with the unit Wh/m2. Network information: - SMHI's station network: Data is collected and stored in SMHI's databases. Data quality is checked, which means that incorrect data is corrected and that data loss is supplemented based on expert judgement where possible. Most of the stations are continuously monitored, inspected and maintained by SMHI. - Other stations: Data is collected and stored in SMHI's databases. The data quality is unknown to SMHI as SMHI does not perform quality control on data or inspections at the stations. Quality codes: Green = Verified and accepted values. Yellow = Suspected values, aggregated values, roughly controlled archive data and uncontrolled real-time data (last 2 hours). Boundaries: -15 to 1600 W/m2 For more info see: https://www.smhi.se/Knowledge Bank/meteorology/stralning/various-sorts-stralning-1.5930 and https://www.smhi.se/Knowledge Bank/meteorology/solstralning-1.4186
