Gold Level L2 Solar EUV proxy
The GOLD solar irradiance proxy (QEUV) is a proxy for the integrated solar EUV \n irradiance below 45 nm, which can be derived directly from far ultraviolet (FUV) radiance \n measurements. QEUV is a dayside disk data product, derived from the GOLD DAY measurement mode.\n \n Algorithm heritage\n The disk QEUV retrieval algorithm was originally developed for use with GUVI and SSUSI images \n (Strickland et al., [1995]). The GOLD implementation of this algorithm takes advantage of GOLD’s \n ability to transmit the full spectrum to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio and eliminate atomic \n emission lines that contaminate the N2 LBH bands (e.g., N I 149.3 nm). This algorithm has been \n extensively documented and applied (e.g., Strickland et al. [2004]; Evans et al., [1995]). The \n associated GOLD Level 2 data product is called QEUV.\n \n References\n -Evans, J. S., D. J. Strickland and R. E.
