Reference stations method usage for excluding snow effect by 2018-2019 data.

Abstract

In this article the influence of the surrounding snow cover on the neutron monitors count rate of the World Wide Web was estimated using the method of reference stations. The applied technique also makes it possible to estimate the thickness of the snow cover at the observation point, which was done for more than two dozen stations. A comparison of the results of data correction for snow is carried out for case of automatic correction, based on the developed algorithm, and for manual one, with an error estimate.
