Earth radiation budgets

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1981
This paper presents the annual and seasonal averaged earth atmosphere radiation budgets derived from the most complete set of satellite observations available in late 1979. The budgets are derived from a composite of 48 monthly mean radiation budget maps.

Geostationary earth radiation budget

SPIE Proceedings, 1997
The Earth Radiation Budget (ERB), the balance between the incoming solar radiation from the sun and the outgoing reflected and scattered solar radiation and the thermal infrared emission from the Earth, provides information on the fundamental energy source of the climate system.

Nimbus-6 earth radiation budget experiment

Applied Optics, 1977
This paper describes the Nimbus-6 earth radiation budget experiment including its prelaunch calibration and in-flight performance. A preliminary assessment of the data shows the ERB measurement of the solar constant to be 1392 W/m(2) which is 1.6% higher than the expected value of 1370 W/m(2).

Climate and the Earth’s radiation budget

AIP Conference Proceedings, 1989
Among the first payloads aboard satellites in the early 1960s were instruments for measuring the Earth's radiation budget. The radiation budget consists of the incident and reflected sunlight and the long-wave (infrared and far infrared) radiation emitted to space.

The Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget Project

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2005
Abstract This paper reports on a new satellite sensor, the Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget (GERB) experiment. GERB is designed to make the first measurements of the Earth's radiation budget from geostationary orbit. Measurements at high absolute accuracy of the reflected sunlight from the Earth, and the thermal radiation emitted by the Earth are ...

The Earth Radiation Budget

1990
Satellite observations of the radiation entering and leaving the Earth-atmosphere system and their use for studies of the Earth’s climate are discussed in this chapter. Prior to the satellite era, the Earth Radiation Budget (ERB) was estimated by using radiative transfer calculations.
