Hello,

The losses due to the wind stow position of the trackers do not directly appear in the loss diagram. The only way to evaluate these losses would be to run a simulation without wind stow and evaluate the difference between the simulation. 

If you are using sub-hourly data and the sub-hourly clipping correction model, you find the additional clipping correction printed in the loss diagram. 

Im not sure what you mean by terrain loss?  With the 3D scene, you can evaluate the mutual shadings that might appear due to the terrain, as well as shadings actually caused by the terrain, these will be shading losses. Shadings from shading objects or the terrain will be grouped together. To evaluate them separately, you would need to run several simulations with and without the different shading objects. You can also import a horizon profile to evaluate far shadings.
