A simplified model to predict diurnal water temperature dynamics in a shallow tropical water pool [PDF]
, 2008 Water temperature is a critical regulator in the growth and development of malaria mosquito immatures, as they are poikilothermic. Measuring or estimating the diurnal temperature ranges to which these immatures are exposed is of the utmost importance, as

On shortwave radiation absorption in overcast atmospheres [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 1999 Using a numerical model of solar radiative transfer that is calibrated against benchmark computations, it is shown that atmospheric water vapor, together with the microphysical characteristics of water drops (liquid water path and effective radius), plays an important role in the total solar spectrum reflection and absorption in overcast skies.
