This set of total solar irradiance data was supplied by the experimenter team to NASA's Climate Data System on hard copy. The solar constants were measured by the solar monitor (0.2-50 micrometers) every 2 weeks during periods of solar calibration of the earth-viewing instruments. The measurements are normalized to one astronomical unit and corrected for any off-axis positioning of the sun. Accuracy is better than 0.5%. The data set is available on line in Common Data Format (CDF). This data set is colocated with the total solar irradiance data from NOAA 9 (NSSDC ID 84-123A-05D).
