Description:This publication inventories "duration of sunshine" records for 239 recording stations. The monthly and annual total hours of sunshine for these sites have been digitized and summarized for each available month and year of record between 1891-1980. The background and data inventory of sunshine recordings are described in this report. Documentation includes information on the station network, periods of record, types and locations of instruments, and formats for various sources of published data. Data are presented as time series of sunshine values for selected long-term stations, possible sunshine hours, and effective sunshine. NOTE: Due to the large volume of sunshine data, it was not possible to list monthly and annual values in this report. The complete set will be available in October 1981 on magnetic tape or microfiche. Paper copies of data for individual stations can be provided from computer listings.
