Comment:
Due to persistent tracker problems a switch to another (duplicate) tracker has been made with new instruments for direct, diffuse and downward longwave irradiance. The new instruments were used for the entire month of September 2025. Use of alternative pyranometer (Kipp&Zn CM22 s/n 010038 on 7 October 2025) due to contaminated dome. Suboptimal ventilation of diffuse pyranometer until 22 September due to delayed filter exchange. This results in more than usual ERL flags.
