Comment:

The ARM Program discovered a long-standing issue with their equatorial tropical western Pacific sites (Manus and Nauru) UVB data that renders the data unusable. The decision was then made to stop measuring UV at these sites. Therefore PLEASE REFRAIN FROM USING ANY UV DATA FROM NAURU OR MANUS!
