Comment:
The solar tracker is out of order since 1-1-2020. Therefore, direct and diffuse radiation are not included in the file, and downward longwave radiation is measured without shadowing the sun. Between 9 and 22 June p, T, and RH are taken from an automated weather station at the same site, due to loss of data from E+E33 humidity sensor, the PT1000 temperature sensor, and the PTB220 pressure sensor. The 10-minute average values from this automated weather station are reported for every minute within the 10-minute averaging interval.
