All-sky assimilation of infrared radiances sensitive to mid- and upper-tropospheric moisture and cloud [PDF]
All-sky assimilation of infrared (IR) radiances has not yet become operational at any weather forecasting centre, but it promises to bring new observations in sensitive areas and avoid the need for cloud detection.

A total sky cloud detection method using real clear sky background [PDF]
The brightness distribution of sky background is usually non-uniform, which creates many problems for traditional cloud detection methods, including the failure of thin cloud detection in total sky images and significantly reducing retrieval accuracy in ...

Solar Forecasts Based on the Clear Sky Index or the Clearness Index: Which Is Better?
In the realm of solar forecasting, it is common to use a clear sky model output to deseasonalise the solar irradiance time series needed to build the forecasting models.
