The Clouds and Climate - Remote Integrated Deployment of Radiometers (CC-RIDER) is a suite of five Eppley Laboratory (Inc.) instruments that was deployed during EPCAPE at the secondary Mount Soledad site in La Jolla, CA. A primary and backup Precision Spectral Pyranometer (PSP Primary, PSP Backup) measured broadband downwelling shortwave irradiance in the spectral interval 280-2800 nm. A third Precision Spectral Pyranometer (PSP NIR) was fitted with a near-infrared long pass filter and measured downwelling shortwave irradiance in the spectral interval 780-2800 nm. A Total Ultraviolet Radiometer (TUVR) measured broadband downwelling broadband ultraviolet irradiance in the spectral interval 295-385 nm. A Precision Infrared Radiometer (PIR) Pyrgeometer measured downwelling broadband longwave irradiance in the spectral interval 3.5 - 50 microns. Data collection began on 18 April 2023 at 21:31 UTC and ended on 20 February 2024 at 22:34 UTC. Data were recorded by a Campbell Scientific (Inc.) CR1000X datalogger in one-minute intervals, for a total of 443584 data records. The datalogger was solar powered enabling data collection to proceed without interruption from start to finish.
