Ocean Acidification Affects the Response of the Coastal Coccolithophore Pleurochrysis carterae to Irradiance

open access: yesBiology, 2023
The ecologically important marine phytoplankton group coccolithophores have a global distribution. The impacts of ocean acidification on the cosmopolitan species Emiliania huxleyi have received much attention and have been intensively studied.

Quantifying the Effects of Photoperiod, Temperature and Daily Irradiance on Flowering Time of Soybean Isolines

open access: yesPlants, 2014
Soybean isolines with different combinations of photoperiod sensitivity alleles were planted in a greenhouse at different times during the year resulting in natural variation in daily incident irradiance and duration.

Adjusting the Single-Diode Model Parameters of a Photovoltaic Module with Irradiance and Temperature

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
This paper presents a concise discussion and an investigation of the most literature-reported methods for modifying the lumped-circuit parameters of the single-diode model (SDM) of a photovoltaic (PV) module, to suit the prevailing climatic conditions of

The Effects of Shade and Light on Corals in the Context of Coral Bleaching and Shading Technologies

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The current coral reefs crisis is motivating a number of innovative projects attempting to leverage new mechanisms to avoid coral bleaching, reduce coral mortality and restore damaged reefs.

Irradiance gradients

open access: yesACM SIGGRAPH 2008 classes, 2008
A new method for improving the accuracy of a diffuse interreflection calculation is introduced in a ray tracing context. The information from a hemispherical sampling of the luminous environment is interpreted in a new way to predict the change in irradiance as a function of position and surface orientation.

Comparison of Decadal Trends among Total Solar Irradiance Composites of Satellite Observations

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2019
We present a new analysis of the two-decade-old controversy over interpretation of satellite observations of total solar irradiance (TSI) since 1978 and the implications of our findings for TSI as a driver of climate change.

The light-deficient climates of western Central African evergreen forests

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
Rainfall thresholds under which forests grow in Central Africa are lower than those of Amazonia and southeast Asia. Attention is thus regularly paid to rainfall whose seasonality and interannual variability has been shown to control Central African ...

Carbon Isotope Fractionation in Noelaerhabdaceae Algae in Culture and a Critical Evaluation of the Alkenone Paleobarometer

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
The carbon isotope fractionation in algal organic matter (εp), including the long‐chain alkenones produced by the coccolithophorid family Noelaerhabdaceae, is used to reconstruct past atmospheric CO2 levels.

Which solar EUV indices are best for reconstructing the solar EUV irradiance ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The solar EUV irradiance is of key importance for space weather. Most of the time, however, surrogate quantities such as EUV indices have to be used by lack of continuous and spectrally resolved measurements of the irradiance. The ability of such proxies

Primary Production: Sensitivity to Surface Irradiance and Implications for Archiving Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
An equation is derived to express the sensitivity of daily, watercolumn production by phytoplankton in the ocean to variations in irradiance at the sea surface.
