Many of the clouds important to the Earth's energy balance, from the Tropics to the Arctic, contain small amounts of liquid water. Longwave and shortwave radiative fluxes are very sensitive to small perturbations of the cloud liquid water path (LWP),

A simple method for removing 3-D radiative effects in satellite retrievals of surface irradiance

Publikováno v: Remote Sensing of Environment. 94:335-342

As the spatial resolution of satellite sensors increase, estimates of surface solar irradiance ( I SFC ) from space borne observations of top of the atmosphere reflected radiance ( R TOA ) can actually become less accurate because of enhanced three-d

Remote sensing of surface solar irradiance with corrections for 3-D cloud effects

Autor: Klaus Wyser, Charles Jones, Catherine Gautier, William O'Hirok

Publikováno v: Remote Sensing of Environment. 80:272-284

Surface solar irradiance ( I SFC ) can be inferred from satellite-observed radiance with retrieval algorithms based on the independent pixel approximation (IPA). As the spatial resolution of satellite sensors increases, the effects from spatially inh

A Three-Dimensional Radiative Transfer Model to Investigate the Solar Radiation within a Cloudy Atmosphere. Part II: Spectral Effects

Autor: William O'Hirok, Catherine Gautier

Publikováno v: Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences. 55:3065-3076

A new Monte Carlo‐based three-dimensional (3D) radiative transfer model of high spectral and spatial resolution is presented. It is used to investigate the difference in broadband solar radiation absorption, top-of-theatmosphere upwelling, and surf

The interaction of clouds with solar and terrestrial radiation is one of the most important topics of climate research. In recent years it has been recognized that only a full three-dimensional (3D) treatment of this interaction can provide answers t
