Solar rotational modulations of spectral irradiance and correlations with the variability of total solar irradiance [PDF]
Aims: We characterize the solar rotational modulations of spectral solar irradiance (SSI) and compare them with the corresponding changes of total solar irradiance (TSI). Solar rotational modulations of TSI and SSI at wavelengths between 120 and 1600 nm are identified over one hundred Carrington rotational cycles during 2003–2013.

New spectral functions of the near-ground albedo derived from aircraft diffraction spectrometer observations [PDF]
The airborne spectral observations of the upward and downward irradiances are revisited to investigate the dependence of the near-ground albedo as a function of wavelength in the entire solar spectrum for different surfaces (sand, water, snow) and under ...

Determination of sensor depth from downwelling irradiance measurements
The wave focusing effect causes measurements of under water downwelling irradiances Ed to be extremely variable in intensity and spectral shape. A new analytical model for Ed has been developed recently, which can deal with the induced variability by ...

Reconstruction of the solar EUV irradiance from 1996 to 2010 based on SOHO/EIT images
The solar Extreme UltraViolet (EUV) spectrum has important effects on the Earth’s upper atmosphere. For a detailed investigation of these effects it is important to have a consistent data series of the EUV spectral irradiance available.

Reconstruction of the solar spectral UV irradiance for nowcasting of the middle atmosphere state on the basis of LYRA measurements [PDF]
The LYRA instrument onboard ESA PROBA2 satellite will provide 6-hourly solar irradiance at the Lyman-alpha (121.6 nm) and the Herzberg continuum (~200–220 nm wavelength range). Because the nowcasting of the neutral and ionic state of the middle
