Estimating solar radiation on sloping surfaces [PDF]
An important parameter necessary for describing the microclimate or heat budget at the earth's surface is the quantity of incident solar radiation. However, measurements of radiation on other than a horizontal surface are not normally available. This article provides a set of tables listing the ratio of total daily solar energy received on a surface of

China's dimming and brightening: evidence, causes and hydrological implications [PDF]
There is growing evidence that, corresponding to global dimming and brightening, surface solar radiation and sunshine hours over China have undergone decadal fluctuations during the 1960s–2000s.

Surface Albedo Assimilation and Its Impact on Surface Radiation Budget in Beijing
Surface albedo is a crucial parameter in land surface radiation budget. As bias exists between the model simulated and observed surface albedo, data assimilation is an important method to improve the simulation results.

Evaluation of incident radiation by a V-Concentration System (VCS) in Bogotá, D.C. [PDF]
Increasing the areas of solar capture is a way to expand the solar radiation, captured on a flat surface by reflection. Maximizing the fraction of solar radiation captured; for that purpose, the V-Concentration System (VCS) was developed, adding four ...

Inclusion of Solar Elevation Angle in Land Surface Albedo Parameterization Over Bare Soil Surface
Land surface albedo is a significant parameter for maintaining a balance in surface energy. It is also an important parameter of bare soil surface albedo for developing land surface process models that accurately reflect diurnal variation characteristics

Solar Radiation on Inclined Surfaces [PDF]
CALCULATION of the probable intensity of solar radiation on a surface which is inclined to the horizontal and at any attitude or azimuth relative to the Sun's meridian is frequently necessary in solar engineering research. The usual practice has been to perform such a calculation by separating the direct component of insolation and the diffuse ...

ESTIMATION OF TOTAL SOLAR RADIATION INCIDENT ON AN INCLINED SURFACE OF A SOUTH-FACING GREENHOUSE ROOF [PDF]
Solar radiation is the driving force for the surface energy balance in buildings such as greenhouses. Greenhouses are generally tilted towards the sun in order to maximize the solar irradiance on the surfaces.

Impact of diffuse solar radiation on HAM simulation accuracy [PDF]
Advance in the numerical simulation models brings higher need for more accuracy outdoor boundary conditions - climate data sets. With influence of the urban heat islands, measured climate on the meadows, far from pawed surfaces creates uncertainty in the
