Extraction of spectral hemispherical reflectance (albedo) of surfaces from nadir and directional reflectance data

International Journal of Remote Sensing, 1987
A radiative transfer model is used to investigate how the error of spectral hemispherical reflectance data obtained from nadir reflectance values varies with wavelength, solar zenith angle, leaf area index, and leaf orientation distribution. Several techniques employing multiple off-nadir view angles taken in azimuth planes are found to accurately ...

Method for measurement of the directional/hemispherical reflectance of photovoltaic devices

Optics Communications, 2000
A novel method, and the relative apparatus, are described which permit to measure the directional/hemispherical reflectance of a surface at incidence angles h in the interval 0‐90∞. The method, suitable for the characterization of optically homogeneous as well as heterogeneous samples, is named ‘‘diAerencing reflection method’’ as the reflectance of ...

Spatial averaging errors in creating hemispherical reflectance (Albedo) maps from directional reflectance data

Remote Sensing of Environment, 1993
Spatial averaging errors which may occur when creating hemispherical reflectance maps for different cover types from direct nadir technique to estimate the hemispherical reflectance are assessed by comparing the results with those obtained with a knowledge-based system called VEG (Kimes et al., 1991, 1992).

Calorimetric support of directional–hemispherical reflection measurements in the infrared spectral range

Applied Optics, 1994
Measurements of the directional-hemispherical reflectance ρ with the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt IR sphere reflectometer have been confirmed by calorimetric determination of the absorptance α in the same geometrical conditions (irradiation at 10°, hemispherical reflection).

Surface length scale contributions to the directional and hemispherical emissivity and reflectivity

Journal of Thermophysics and Heat Transfer, 1995
Rigorous electromagnetic scattering solutions, based on the extinction theorem, are used to investigate the surface geometry contributions to the directional and hemispherical emissivity and to the directional hemispherical reflectivity for one-dimensional configured or random rough surfaces with different material properties.

Measurement Of Near-Normal/Hemispherical Reflectance And Directional Emittance In The Mid-Infrared

SPIE Proceedings, 1987
Based on a FTIR spectrometer a measuring device for the determination of the spectral near-normal/hemispherical reflectance and the spectral directional emittance, respectively, of opaque, diffusely reflecting samples has been built up. The device is mainly used for the measuring of the spectral emittance of low-emitting selective solar absorber ...

Room temperature hemispherical and bi-directional reflectances

11th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Thermal Processing of Semiconductors. RTP 2003, 2004
The emissivity of a material is conveniently determined from its reflectance, which is turn can be used to validate optical models for estimating emissivity at high temperatures. The Optical Technology Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology maintains the national reference instruments for measurements of reflectance.
