Comparative Investigation of Daylight Glare Probability (DGP) Comfort Classes in Clear Sky Condition

open access: yesJournal of Daylighting, 2021
Glare is considered one of the most important variables to reach visual comfort and visual quality. It represents one of the fundamental barriers for an effective use of daylighting in buildings.

Clear-Sky Surface Solar Radiation and the Radiative Effect of Aerosol and Water Vapor Based on Simulations and Satellite Observations over Northern China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The distribution and trend of clear-sky surface solar radiation (SSR) and the quantitative effects of aerosol and water vapor are investigated in northern China during 2001–2015 using radiation simulations and satellite observations.

Development and Testing of a Clear-Sky Data Selection Algorithm for FY-3C/D Microwave Temperature Sounder-2

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Fengyun (FY)-3C/D microwave temperature sounder-2 (MWTS-2) is similar to the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A), except it lacks two window channels located at 23.8 GHz and 31.4 GHz.

Impact of aerosols and clouds on decadal trends in all-sky solar radiation over the Netherlands (1966–2015) [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017
A 50-year hourly data set of global shortwave radiation, cloudiness and visibility over the Netherlands was used to quantify the contribution of aerosols and clouds to the trend in yearly-averaged all-sky radiation (1.81 ± 1.07 W m−2 decade−1). Yearly-

Improved Clear Sky Model from In Situ Observations and Spatial Distribution of Aerosol Optical Depth for Satellite-Derived Solar Irradiance over the Korean Peninsula

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
In solar resource assessment, the climatological environment of the target area is objectively quantified by the cloudiness or clear sky index, which is defined as the ratio of global horizontal irradiance to clear sky solar insolation.

Clear-Sky Mask for the Advanced Clear-Sky Processor for Oceans

open access: yesJournal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2010
Abstract The Advanced Clear Sky Processor for Oceans (ACSPO) generates clear-sky products, such as SST, clear-sky radiances, and aerosol, from Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)-like measurements. The ACSPO clear-sky mask (ACSM) identifies clear-sky pixels within the ACSPO products.

Comparison of Assimilating All-Sky and Clear-Sky Satellite Radiance for Typhoon Chan-Hom and Nangka Forecasts

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
The impacts of assimilating all-sky satellite radiance from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) on typhoon Chan-hom and Nangka are evaluated over traditional clear-sky radiance assimilation.

A Simple Method for Converting 1-km Resolution Daily Clear-Sky LST into Real LST

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Land-surface temperature (LST) plays a key role in the physical processes of surface energy and water balance from local through global scales. The widely used one kilometre resolution daily Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) LST ...

Vapor buoyancy increases clear-sky thermal emission

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Climate, 2023
The molar mass of H _2 O (18 g mol ^−1 ) is smaller than that of dry air (29 g mol ^−1 ), which makes humid air lighter than dry air with the same temperature and pressure.
