Databases generated for manuscript "Quantifying downward radiative fluxes from nighttime Martian water ice clouds: Applications to thermal modeling of surface temperatures"

There are two zip files containing generated databases:

The zip file titled "database.zip" contains generated database for calculated fluxes using the methodology mentioned in the manuscript. The database spans calculated fluxes in one degree bins for latitudes spanning 30° to -10° N and longitudes spanning 0° to 360°. There are 14760 separate .csv files that are for each one by one degree bin. The title of each file contains its coordinates in the format XXXNXXXEtb.csv (e.g. 000N000Etb.csv for 0°N, 0°E). Each .csv file contains four separate columns and variable rows. The columns have headers corresponding to specific values. "ls" corresponds to solar longitude or date based on Mars' orbit around the Sun. "Flux" corresponds to calculated flux based on the methodology presented on the manuscript. "Delta-T" is the difference in temperature comparing modeled temperature compared to Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) measured temperature. "Tau" corresponds to calculated Dust visible opacities using the methodology presented in this work. The rows in each file vary based on the temporal observations from TES at each location. 

The zip file titled "fitdatabase.zip" contains generated database for fitted fluxes using the methodology mentioned in the manuscript. The database spans calculated fluxes in one degree bins for latitudes spanning 30° to -10° N and longitudes spanning 0° to 360°. There are 14760 separate .csv files that are for each one by one degree bin. The title of each file contains its coordinates in the format XXXNXXXEtbf.csv (e.g. 000N000Etbf.csv for 0°N, 0°E). Each .csv file contains six separate columns and three hundred and sixty rows. The columns have headers corresponding to specific values. "ls" corresponds to solar longitude or date based on Mars' orbit around the Sun. "Flux" corresponds to calculated flux based on the methodology presented on the manuscript. "Delta-T" is the difference in temperature comparing modeled temperature compared to measured temperature. The fitting algorithm interpolates points between values in the calculated flux database and applies a rolling mean fit with a window spanning ten degrees in solar longitude centered at each calculated flux point. "FLAG" indicates the amount of points of calculated flux points that exist within the ten degree window centered at each flux point to demonstrate to the user how much data had to be fitted. "From Ls" shows the leftmost edge of the rolling mean fit window. "To Ls" shows the rightmost edge of the rolling mean fit window. The rows in each file correspond to one degree of solar longitude the fitting algorithm was designed to cover each solar longitude bin.
