The Brewer Ozone Spectrophotometer is a 15-cm focal-length, modified
Ebert-Fastie spectrograph which makes rapid, time-multiplexed
measurements in the UV-B region of the solar spectrum.  A typical
direct sun observation is the average of 5 separate observations.
If the standard deviation of the measurements is less than 2 DU, the
measurement is taken as acceptable.  If the standard deviation is larger,
it is interpreted as indicating variability of the solar intensity, i.e.:
clouds or other optical attenuation.  Each of the five ozone
measurements which contributes to the average value are composed of 40 
short observation samples.  A cycle of 2 samples on each of the five 
wavelengths takes place in about 1.2 seconds.  The usual measurement of 
20 cycles takes under 30 seconds.  Daily averages are calcluted using 
all good observations and are reported as the last line in the data 
table.
