Some Effects of the Yellowstone Fire Smoke Cloud on Incident Solar Irradiance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The influence of the 1988 Yellowstone National Park fire, smoke cloud on incident broadband and spectral solar irradiance was studied using measurements made at the Solar Energy Research Institute's Solar Radiation Research ...
Analysis of Urban-Rural Solar Radiation Data from St. Louis, Missouri
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The results of an analysis of simultaneous measurements of incident solar radiation from six locations in metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri are described. The measurements were taken continuously from September 1975 through ...
Measurement of Broadband Diffuse Solar Irradiance Using Current Commercial Instrumentation with a Correction for Thermal Offset Errors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Diffuse-sky solar irradiance is an important quantity for radiation budget research, particularly as it relates to climate. Diffuse irradiance is one component of the total downwelling solar irradiance and contains information ...
An Extensive Comparison of Commercial Pyrheliometers under a Wide Range of Routine Observing Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n the most comprehensive pyrheliometer comparison known to date, 33 instruments were deployed to measure direct normal solar radiation over a 10-month period in Golden, Colorado. The goal was to determine their performance ...
