#
# The Kimber Soiling model assumes that soiling builds up at a constant rate
# until cleaned either manually or by rain. The rain must reach a threshold to
# clean the panels. When rains exceeds the threshold, it's assumed the earth is
# damp for a grace period before it begins to soil again. There is a maximum
# soiling build up that cannot be exceeded even if there's no rain or
# manual cleaning.
#
# Threshold
# ---------
# The example shown here demonstrates how the threshold affects soiling.
# Because soiling depends on rainfall, loading weather data is always the first
# step.
