**Radiation Data** 

Contains the state of the radiation data for every simulation output.

<WRAP clear></WRAP>

The radiation data files are produced each main output interval (default: 60 min) and represent the general state of the radiation at the given model time.

==== Variable list ====

<fs x-small>This list represents the general variable structure. The actual sequence of the variables might differ but the same information is stored in total.</fs>

|  |**Variable** |**Unit** |**Description** |
|  |Objects| - | Single object IDs to visualize the model domain. Meaning of the different IDs is stored in LEONARDO Special Layer Definition Files|
|  |Q_sw Direct| W/m²  | Direct shortwave radiation|
|  |Q_sw Direct Relative| -  | Local direct shortwave radiation relative to the total shortwave radiation|
|  |Q_sw Diffuse| W/m² | Diffuse shortwave radiation|
|  |Q_sw Reflected Upper Hemisphere| W/m²  | Reflected horizontal radiation of the upper hemisphere|
|  |Q_lw  Upper Hemisphere| W/m² | Longwave radiation of the upper hemisphere|
|  |Q_sw Reflected Lower Hemisphere| W/m² | Reflected horizontal radiation of the lower hemisphere|
