Table 2. The difference between the GLOBE at Night observations and the values predicted by the fit to the DMSP data are shown for different selections of the GLOBE at Night data. In each case, the number of unique locations sampled, mean value, and standard deviation of the data from the prediction (SR) are shown. The data are alternatively broken down by the two week period in which they were acquired (top), or by the total number of observations (obs) at a single location (bottom).
