Timeseries of shortwave and longwave radiation measurements at Dome C in Antarctica (2018-2020)

The dataset contains a timeseries of CNR4 radiometer measurements at 10 min timestep. The records include measurements from the up- and downward looking shortwave and longwave sensors. The data were acquired at Dome C, near the Concordia station (75°S, 123°E). The sensor height is about 1.6 m and the surface in the footprint of the sensors is not guaranteed to be flat at this scale due to dunes and stratugi, although the overall area is extremely flat. This influences the measured (apparent) albedo and must be corrected with adequate algorithm before comparison with large scale measurements or modeling results. The files contains one year of data each and the data format is CSV with 5 columns: TIMESTAMP in UTC time, and the measurements in W/m2: Lwdn,Lwup,SWdn,SWup. Note that dn (resp up) refers to the downward (resp upward) looking sensor, which measure the upwelling (resp. downwelling) radiation.
