Infrared Radiative Cooling in the Middle Atmosphere (30–110 km)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The infrared contributions to the heat budget by the 15 µ CO2, 9.6 µ O2, and 80 µ H2O bands are evaluated for the upper stratosphere, mesosphere and lower thermosphere as a function of latitude for both summer and winter. ...
The Distribution of Tropospheric Planetary Radiation in the Southern Hemisphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The planetary radiation for the Southern Hemisphere troposphere has been calculated from climatological data for January and July. Zonally averaged profiles of cooling/heating rates are presented. In addition, calculations ...
Effects of the El Chichon Volcanic Cloud on Direct and Diffuse Solar Irradiances
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Direct normal and diffuse solar irradiances and 500 nm aerosol optical depths measured at the University of Michigan departed far from normal on 26 October 1982, when it is concluded that the main stratospheric cloud from ...
