# This example demonstrates how to use diffuse fraction estimation methods to
1111
# obtain direct and diffuse components from measured global horizontal
1212
# irradiance (GHI). Irradiance sensors such as pyranometers typically only
13-
# measure GHI. Therefore pvlib provides several correlations to estimate the
14-
# diffuse fraction of the GHI, that can be used to resolve the diffuse and
15-
# direct components.

# surface.
