Nine radiation components observed at the Shangdianzi regional GAW station in China (2013-2022)

This dataset consists of quality-assured daily data of nine radiation components (i.e., global shortwave irradiance, direct shortwave irradiance, diffuse shortwave irradiance, upwelling shortwave irradiance, photosyntheticall active radiation, ultraviolet A irradiance, ultraviolet B irradiance, downwelling longwave irradiance, and upwelling longwave irradiance) observed at the Shangdianzi regional GAW station (40.65°N, 117.12°E; 293.3 m a.s.l.) in China during 2013–2022. A Hybrid Algorithm for Radiation Data Quality Control (HARDQC) algorithm is performed on all radiation data to guarantee the highest quality of the dataset. The dataset can be applied in many fields such as the validation of satellite products and numerical models, investigation of relationships between radiation and atmospheric composition, and the detection of changes in the surface fluxes.
