[MSNoise] One more clarification

[Flinders, Ashton]

Thanks Lukas!

I think the part that is throwing me off a bit is the "Daily NCFs were then
obtained by stacking 30-min NCFs".

This sound like to be, they took their individual 30 min NCFs and stacked
them, so that each day is represented by the stacked summation of 48
independent NCFs.

I assumed that meant that both corr_duration and analysis duration were set
to 3600, but maybe not.

I'll probably just send an email out to them to see what parameters they
used.
