Radiation data in Post Processed Analysis Product #4

Closed yisak closed 4 years ago

yisak commented 4 years ago

There seems to be many outliers in the radiation variable for the analysis products (http://thredds.met.no/thredds/catalog/metpparchivev1/catalog.html) . Here I made the assumption that the radiation variable represents deaccumulated values and that they represent deaccumulated values over a period of 1 hour. So I just divided the values by 3600s to get W/m^2. But I see that some values are too high. Look at the plots below. I just took one point inside one of Statkrafts catchments and plotted the radiation for the whole period (2013.09.01-2018.09.01). I have also included a plot where only the values from one of the years with the outliers are plotted. @tnipen , @cristianlussana do you know the cause for this?

Thanks for the feedback. This has been fixed now.
