Geometric effects induced by the underlying terrain slope or by tilt errors of radiation sensors lead to an erroneous measurement of snow or ice albedo. Consequently, diurnal albedo variations are observed. A general method to correct tilt errors of albedo measurements in cases where tilts of both the sensors and the slopes are not accurately measured or known is presented. Atmospheric parameters for this correction method can either be taken from a nearby well-maintained and horizontally levelled measurement of global radiation or alternatively from a solar radiation model. In a next step the model is fitted to the measured data to determine tilts and directions of the sensors and the underlying terrain slope. This then allows to correct the measured albedo, the radiative balance and the energy balance. Depending on the direction of the slope and the sensors a comparison between measured and corrected albedo values reveals obvious over-or underestimations of albedo. |
