/09/00 Protocol of the intercomparison at LKO, Arosa, Switzerland on July to, 00 with the travelling reference spectroradiometer QASUME from PMOD/WRC Report prepared by Gregor Hülsen, Julian Gröbner Operator: Gregor Hülsen, Julian Gröbner The purpose of the visit was the comparison of global solar irradiance measurements between the 7 spectroradiometers participating in the 3 rd Regional Brewer Calibration Center Europe (RBCC-E) Campaign (see Figure and Table ) and the travel reference spectroradiometer QASUME. The measurement site is located at the Lichtklimatische Observatorium (LKO) in Arosa; Latitude.7 N, Longitude 9. E and altitude m.a.s.l.. The horizon of the measurement site is free down to ~0 solar zenith angle (SZA), see Figure on Page 35. QASUME arrived at LKO in the morning of July, 00. The spectroradiometer was installed in line to the Brewer spectrophotometers with the entrance optic of QASUME between and 0 m away from the other instruments. The measurement campaign lasted eight days, from noon of July to the afternoon of July ; the core comparison days were July to 7. QASUME was calibrated several times during the intercomparison period using a portable calibration system. Two lamps (T5 and T53) were used to obtain an absolute spectral irradiance calibration traceable to the primary reference held at PMOD/WRC, which is traceable to PTB. The daily mean responsivity of the instrument based on these calibrations varied by less than % during the intercomparison period. The internal temperature of QASUME was 3.±0.3 C. The diffuser head was heated to a temperature of 5.7±. C. The wavelength shifts relative to an extraterrestrial spectrum as retrieved from the SHICRivm analysis were between ±50 pm in the spectral range 90 to 00 nm.

/09/00 Protocol: The measurement protocol was to measure one solar irradiance spectrum from 90 to 00 nm, every 0.5 nm, and.5 seconds between each wavelength increment. The scans were performed approx. every 0 min interspersed with the total column ozone measurements. July (03) Monday: QASUME was installed on the measurement site at 0:00 UT. Solar spectra are available from :00 UT when the internal temperature of QASUME reached its nominal temperature. Weather conditions were a mix of sun and clouds. QASUME was calibrated at 5:30 UT. July (0) Tuesday: Solar spectra are available from :00 to :5 UT. Weather conditions were overcast sky with a few raindrops from 9:30 to 3:30 UT. QASUME was calibrated at 3: and 3:5 UT. July 3 (05) Wednesday: Solar spectra are available from 3:5 to 9:00 UT. Weather conditions were a mix of sun and clouds. QASUME was calibrated at : UT. July (0) Thursday: Solar spectra are available from :00 to :0 UT. Weather conditions were clear sky with a few cirrus and cumulus clouds. QASUME was calibrated at :0 and : UT. July 5 (07) Friday: Solar spectra are available from 7:00 to :0 UT. Weather conditions were clear sky with a few cirrus clouds. QASUME was calibrated at :30 UT. July (0) Saturday: Solar spectra are available from 3:0 to 5:0 UT. Weather conditions were mostly overcast sky. July 7 (09) Sunday: Solar spectra are available from :00 to :00 UT. Weather conditions were a mix of sun and clouds with two rain periods (0:5 to :30 UT and 3:0 to 5:00 UT). July (0) Monday: Solar spectra are available from :00 to 0:0 UT. Weather conditions were a mix of sun and clouds. The HeCd-Laser was used between :00 to 5:00 UT to measure the slitfunction of Brewer #00, #07 and #5. End of the campaign at 5:00 UT.

/09/00 Results: In total to 7 synchronised simultaneous spectra from QASUME and the Brewer spectrophotometers are available from the measurement period. Measurements from sunrise to sunset have been analysed (taking the horizon of at the measurement site into account). Remarks:. The official UV intercomparison of the instruments was integrated into the ozone calibration period. The first two day were dedicated to the training phase.. Although different calibrations and measurements were performed during the campaign, traffic on the roof could be limited. Therefore only few scans are disturbed. 3. The time synchronisation between QASUME and various Brewers could not always be achieved which led to several missing scans.. For the production of the calibration certificates all solar scans are excluded which are affected by rain. 5. Brewer #0 was recalibrated during the intercomparison. The two Figures on Page show a 5% improvement of the new calibration. Brewer Temperature dependence: The standard Brewer global UV measurement procedure does not take into account the dependence of the Brewer spectral responsibility to ambient temperature. However several studies have shown, that Brewer spectrophotometers have a temperature dependence which can be as large as %/K and which depends on wavelength (Cappellani, F., and C. Kochler (000), Temperature effects correction in a Brewer MKIV spectrophotometer for solar UV measurements, J. Geophys. Res., 05(D), 9 3; Weatherhead, E., et al. (00), Temperature dependence of the Brewer ultraviolet data, J. Geophys. Res., 0(D), 3, 3,9). At Arosa, due to the high diurnal temperature variations, the temperature dependence of the Brewer spectrophotometers has therefore a significant influence on the global UV measurements as can be seen in the respective ratios relative to the QASUME spectroradiometer which is temperature stabilised. An example can be seen with Brewer #5; the figure on page 3 shows the mean ratio of this Brewer to QASUME vs. temperature. Similar temperature dependencies could be derived for other Brewers as well. In contrast, the stable performance of Brewer #3 can partly be explained by the applied temperature correction of -0.5%/K. Recommendations: The variabilities observed between individual Brewer spectrophotometers relative to the QASUME spectroradiometer are due to ambient temperature variations on the one hand (see above paragraph), and to angular response errors which were not accounted for (See for example Gröbner, J., Improved entrance optic for global irradiance measurements with a Brewer spectrophotometer, Applied Optics,, 35-35, 003). While a reliable correction of angular response errors requires the modification of the Brewer entrance optic, the temperature dependence can be corrected by applying a suitable spectral temperature correction to global UV measurements. This function should be determined individually for every Brewer using a measurement procedure as described in the refereed literature (see references). 3
