Air pressure

PRESSURE = instantaneous atmospheric pressure (in hPa) (at station level and not sea level pressure) (averaged over the last minute)

Sunshine duration

SUN_DURATION = total sunshine duration (period during which more than 120W/m² in solar radiation (SUN_INT_AVG) is measured), in minutes, of the last 10 min

Radiation

SHORT_WAVE_FROM_SKY_AVG = average global radiation on a horizontal surface (in W/m²) over the last 10 min

SUN_INT_AVG = average direct radiation on a surface perpendicular to the direction of solar radiation (in W/m²) over the last 10 min
