SORCE XPS Level 4 Solar Spectral Irradiance 1.0nm Res 24-Hour Means V012 (SOR4XPSD_LOW)

The model data are reported in the spectral range from 0-40 nm at a resolution of 1.0 nm (low res) and averaged over a day. The XPS Level 2 data products, along with CHIANTI reference spectra, are used to construct the XPS Level 4 data products.

The SOR4XPS5 data are stored in a single netCDF files containing data for the entire mission. Data variables stored in the file include: MODELFLUX: Array of solar irradiances [W/m2/nm] in 1.0 nm bins from 0 to 40 nm ERR_ABS: Total combined standard uncertainty of the model flux irradiance results (accuracy) ERR_MEAS: Count-rate based combined standard uncertainty of the XPS-1,-2 measurement (precision) DATE: Year and day-of-year of observation (YYDDD) TIME: Seconds of day for middle of observation XPS_QS: Daily quiet-sun scale factor derived from XPS-1,-2 daily minimum XPS_AR: Daily active-region scale factor derived from XPS-1,-2 daily minimum XPS_FLARE: Flare scale factor for each XPS-1,-2 GOES_QS: Daily quiet-sun scale factor derived from GOES XRS-B daily minimum GOES_AR: Daily active-region scale factor derived from GOES XRS-B daily minimum GOES_FLARE: Flare scale factor for each GOES XRS-B integration FMTEMP: Flare model temperature [log10(K)] derived from ratio of GOES XRS-B to XRS-A FMINDEX: Index into flare model table FMWEIGHT: Weight parameter for the flare model
