Sun angle calculations can currently be found here:
And I think the perfect sphere assumption comes in here, maybe?:
I don't have any reference or citation to where this calculation comes from, and I don't know of any alternatives calculations for now.
I think the current sun angle calculations assume a perfect sphere? For low sun angles, it may matter that the station is at elevation on a sloped ice sheet surface with local horizon in one direction much closer than local horizon in another.
