In Eugene, many additional measurements were obtained. These range from second or third instruments doing global horizontal measurements to measurements of photovoltaic panels. Many of the auxiliary measurements can be compared with similar measurements made with different instruments. In order to reduce clutter in the main table, these additional measurements are listed in this auxliary table. In addition, some secondary instruments that ran for short periods are not listed.
