Sunshine duration climate maps of Belgium and Luxembourg based on Meteosat and in-situ observations [PDF]
Sunshine duration was historically the traditional parameter to quantify solar radiation. In the present study, we propose to benefit from the measurements made with Campbell-Stokes recorders at 18 sites in Belgium and Luxembourg to generate maps of ...
