Description

The shadow of the moon observed with cosmic rays offers a good ability to
do Energy scale calibration below a few TeV. Water Cherenkov Detector Array
(WCDA), one of components of Large High Altitude Air Shower Observation
(LHAASO), has lower threshold, and high duty cycle, which make itself a very good
facility in this particular aspect. In this presentation, a work to study the energy scale calibration will be presented, some related works are also going to be shown.
