Estimation of surface longwave radiation components from ground-based historical net radiation and weather data [PDF]
A methodology for estimating ground upwelling, clear-sky and cloud downwelling longwave radiations (L↑, Lsky ↓, and Lcld↓) and net shortwave radiation (Sn) at 30-min temporal scales based on long-term ground-based net radiations and meteorological ...

Sunlight, clouds, sea ice, albedo, and the radiative budget: the umbrella versus the blanket [PDF]
The surface radiation budget of the Arctic Ocean plays a central role in summer ice melt and is governed by clouds and surface albedo. I calculated the net radiation flux for a range of albedos under sunny and cloudy skies and determined the break ...

Inertia from an asymmetric Casimir effect [PDF]
The property of inertia has never been fully explained. A model for inertia (MiHsC or quantised inertia) has been suggested that assumes that 1) inertia is due to Unruh radiation and 2) this radiation is subject to a Hubble-scale Casimir effect.

Components of near-surface energy balance derived from satellite soundings – Part 1: Noontime net available energy [PDF]
This paper introduces a relatively simple method for recovering global fields of monthly midday (13:30 LT) near-surface net available energy (the sum of the sensible and latent heat flux or the difference between the net radiation and surface heat ...

Variability of atmospheric dimethylsulphide over the southern Indian Ocean due to changes in ultraviolet radiation [PDF]
Dimethylsulphide (DMS) is a climatically important component of global biogeochemical cycles, through its role in the sulphur cycle. Changes in ultraviolet radiation (UV) exhibit both positive and negative forcings on the dynamics of production and ...

Examining the impacts of urbanization on surface radiation using Landsat imagery
Metropolitan Beijing is facing many environmental problems such as haze and urban heat island due to the rapid urbanization. Surface shortwave, longwave, and net radiations are key components of the surface-atmosphere radiation budget.
