This graph shows daily sunshine totals measured by a BF3, compared to the WMO
definition of 120 W.m-2 in the Direct beam. Data recorded at Napier University,
Edinburgh between February and July 2001. Comparable data from an adjacent
Campbell-Stokes recorder is also plotted. The SPN1 uses a very similar algorithm,
and will give comparable results.
