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

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

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

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