| description | A database containing 10 min means of solar irradiance measured on a
horizontal plane in several ultraviolet and visible bands from July 2014 to
December 2016 at three stations in the area of the city of Ostrava (Czech
Republic) is presented. The database contains time series of 10 min average
irradiances or photosynthetic photon flux densities measured in the following
spectral bands: 280–315 nm
(UVB); 315–380 nm (UVA); and 400–700 nm
(photosynthetically active radiation, PAR); 510–700 nm; 600–700 nm;
610–680 nm; 690–780 nm; 400–1100 nm. A series of meteorological
variables including relative air humidity and air temperature at surface is
also provided at the same 10 min time step at all three stations, and
precipitation is provided for two stations. Air pressure, wind speed, wind
direction, and concentrations of air pollutants PM<sub>10</sub>, SO<sub>2</sub>, NO<sub><i>x</i></sub>,
NO, NO<sub>2</sub> were measured at the 1 h time step at the fourth station owned
by the Public Health Institute of Ostrava. The details of the experimental
sites and instruments used for the measurements are given. Special attention
is given to the data quality, and the original approach to the data quality
which was established is described in detail. About 130 000 records for each
of the three stations are available in the database. This database offers a
unique ensemble of variables having a high temporal resolution and it is a
reliable source for radiation in relation to environment and vegetation in
highly polluted areas of industrial cities in the of northern mid-latitudes.
The database has been placed on the PANGAEA repository
(<a href="https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.879722" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.879722</a>) and contains individual data files for each
station. |
