Abstract:
The Spectral Irradiance Monitor (SIM), the SOlar Stellar Irradiance Comparison Experiment (SOLSTICE), the XUV Photometer System (XPS), and the Total Irradiance Monitor (TIM) instruments on the Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) spacecraft took daily solar spectral irradiance (SSI) and total solar irradiance (TSI) measurements since April and February 2003, respectively. The SORCE was decommissioned on February 25, 2020 at which time the SORCE mission began its final mission phase (Phase-F). All final data products and documents, as well as all selected ancillary information, have been organized in compliance with NASA’s Earth Science Data Preservation Content Specification (423-SPEC-001), archived at the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC), and made available to the public. We describe the data, documentation, and the various formats that have been selected for archival.
