Title: 1961-1990 Solar Radiation Data Base

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1128607· OSTI ID:1128607

A new 1961-1990 Solar Radiation Data Base for the United States is being compiled at the Solar Energy Research Institute. Using solar radiation and climate data collected by the National Weather Service (NWS) from 1977 to 1990 and improved computer models to fill in missing data, this update will significantly upgrade the current national SOLMET/ERSATZ data base.
