Remote Sensing, 2020 Incident surface shortwave radiation (ISR) is a key parameter in Earth’s surface radiation budget. Many reanalysis and satellite-based ISR products have been developed, but they often have insufficient accuracy and resolution for many applications.

Shortwave radiation parameterization scheme for subgrid topography [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2012 Topography is well known to alter the shortwave radiation balance at the surface. A detailed radiation balance is therefore required in mountainous terrain. In order to maintain the computational performance of large‐scale models while at the same time increasing grid resolutions, subgrid parameterizations are gaining more importance.

A grid-based model of backwasting of supraglacial ice cliffs on debris-covered glaciers
Annals of Glaciology, 2016 Ice cliffs might be partly responsible for the high mass losses of debris-covered glaciers in the Hindu Kush-Karakoram-Himalaya region. The few existing models of cliff backwasting are point-scale models applied at few locations or assume cliffs to be ...
