Monitoring of the selected atmospheric parameters at Belsk for the period 1963-2023: global solar irradiance, sunshine duration, horizontal visibility and total column ozone

The results of daily monitoring of selected atmospheric parameters at Belsk (Central Geophysical Laboratory, Institute of Geophysics, PAS) since 1963 are included in this database. The dataset consists of total column ozone (TCO3) - column 5. Observation type codes were assigned for this value. If TCO3 comes from the Dobson spectrophotometer No.84 measurements, than the codes are from 1 to 5. If there was no measurement from Dobson, than TCO3 was taken from satellite observations - codes 6-7. In case of no measurement, TCO3 was taken from reanalysis data - code 8. Other variables are: sunshine hours duration per day (column 7) taken by Campbell–Stokes sunshine recorder, daily global surface irradiance taken by various pyranometers (Kipp CM 6, Sonntag PRM-2, Kipp&Zonen CM 11, and Kipp&Zonen CM 21), and near noon horizontal visibility recorded by observers.
