Summary The diffuse sky radiation component in the ultraviolet wavelengths is often at least 50% of the global irradiance under clear skies, and is the dominant component of ultraviolet global radiation under translucent overcast skies. The distribution of sky radiance was measured in a rural area and modeled for wavelength bands of ultraviolet-B (UVB, 280–320 nm) and ultraviolet-A (UVA, 320–400 nm). Sky radiance measurements were made during the summer of 1993 over a wide range of solar zenith angles using radiance sensors mounted on a hand-operated hemispherical rotation mount. UVB irradiance measurements were also made during each scan. Since the ratio of measured irradiance under overcast skies and that predicted for clear skies was not correlated with cloud base height, opaque cloud fraction, or solar zenith angle, it was concluded that the scattering from the clouds dominated the global irradiance, and this scattering was relatively unaffected by the scattering off opaque clouds in the translucent atmosphere.Analysis of the translucent overcast sky UVA and UVB radiance measurements using a semi-empirical distribution model showed that the spectral influences on multiple scattering, single scattering, and horizon brightening components of the distributions agreed with basic atmospheric radiation theory. The best model used solar zenith, the sky zenith, and the scattering angle with resultant coefficient of determination values of 0.62 and 0.25 for the UVA and UVB respectively. The developed equations can be applied directly to the diffuse sky irradiance on the horizontal to provide radiance distributions for the sky.With 6 Figures 相似文献

Abstract A three‐component (isotropic, circumsolar and horizon‐brightening) model of the angular distribution of sky (short‐wave) radiance has been tested and validated against a data base of measured sky radiance. The data base encompasses cloud cover 0.0 to 1.0 and solar zenith angles 30 to 80°. Empirical constants have been derived for the model enabling the prediction of sky radiances for any sky condition. 相似文献

Abstract Radiance criteria for distinguishing low, middle, and high clouds in the 9.5–11.5 μm band of the infrared are developed and used to produce local cloud maps. The performance of this radiance contrast method for mapping clouds from the earth's surface is evaluated with a view to using the technique for objective observation of cloud amount and distribution in the sky hemisphere. Discrimination radiance formulas are developed using a multilayer, wavenumber‐specific infrared radiative transfer model including cloud parameters measured by other workers and atmospheric conditions measured by radiosonde. The clear sky radiance (N0) is the dominant independent variable in the discrimination formulas. The variation of N0 with time (primarily due to changes in atmospheric water vapour content) and zenith angle are found to be important in distinguishing cirriform clouds from clear sky and other clouds. The local cloud maps are produced by applying the discrimination radiances (in voltage form) to the output from a narrow‐view infrared radiometer pointed at a sky‐scanning mirror. It is necessary to assume that the radiance from a cloud observed at the surface decreases unambiguously with an increase in cloud base height. Cloud maps for five days in July 1978 indicate the mapping technique shows promise under a wide range of sky conditions. Cloud motions rapidly degrade the maps’ quality over time‐scales that are much less than the current manual cloud sampling period of 1 h. 相似文献

Abstract The fluctuation of remotely sensed sea radiance is investigated and comparatively simple expressions for the average value and the variance of radiance are derived. Possible causes for this fluctuation are sea waves and the angular gradient of sky radiation. The influence of oil films on the average radiance is also estimated. 相似文献

Abstract Both the earth‐reflected shortwave and outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) fluxes at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) as well as surface‐absorbed solar fluxes from Canadian Regional Climate Model (CRCM) simulations of the Mackenzie River Basin for the period March 2000 to September 2003 are compared with the radiation fluxes deduced from satellite observations. The differences between the model and satellite solar fluxes at the TOA and at the surface, which are used in this paper to evaluate the CRCM performance, have opposite biases under clear skies and overcast conditions, suggesting that the surface albedo is underestimated while cloud albedo is overestimated. The slightly larger differences between the model and satellite fluxes at the surface compared to those at the TOA indicate the existence of a small positive atmospheric absorption bias in the model. The persistent overestimation of TOA reflected solar fluxes and underestimation of the surface‐absorbed solar fluxes by the CRCM under all sky conditions are consistent with the overestimation of cloud fraction by the CRCM. This results in a larger shortwave cloud radiative forcing (CRF) both at the TOA and at the surface in the CRCM simulation. The OLR from the CRCM agrees well with the satellite observations except for persistent negative biases during the winter months under all sky conditions. Under clear skies, the OLR is slightly underestimated by the CRCM during the winter months and overestimated in the other months. Under overcast conditions the OLR is underestimated by the CRCM, suggesting an underestimation of cloud‐top temperature by the CRCM. There is an improvement in differences between model and satellite fluxes compared to previously reported results largely because of changes to the treatment of the surface in the model. 相似文献

Climatic variables are frequently used as weighting factors to indicate the degree of clearness for interpreting sky patterns. However, such important parameters are not always widely available and their criteria to define a sky condition are not clear-cut. In addition, certain variables may be more effective than the others in terms of sky identification. This paper studies the capability of various daylight parameters, namely zenith luminance, global, direct-beam and sky-diffuse illuminance, and solar altitude for categorizing the 15 International Commission on Illumination (CIE) standard skies. A new form of artificial neural networks called probabilistic neural network (PNN) which is a powerful technique for pattern recognition was used for the analysis. The findings suggested that the PNN is an appropriate tool when a number of climatic parameters of various criteria for differentiating sky standards are employed, and the ratio of zenith luminance to diffuse illuminance (L z/D v) and solar altitude (?? s) are respectively the most and the least significant input parameters for discriminating between the 15 CIE skies. 相似文献

Abstract Ground‐based sunphotometry measurements acquired under clear sky conditions can be used to investigate atmospheric aerosol optical properties. Such measurements are not only important in their own right as a technique for monitoring generic aerosol dynamics, but also represent a direct means of evaluating the contribution of aerosol induced radiative forcing in the modelling of climate change. In this paper we analyze derived aerosol optical properties using datasets from the Canadian AEROCAN (AERosol CANada) sunphotometer network. The AEROCAN network currently includes eight sunphotometers distributed across Canada at sites chosen in order to obtain a diverse sampling of continental, maritime and arctic aerosols. Some of these sites have been operational since 1993 as part of the Boreal Ecosystem‐Atmosphere Study (BOREAS). These instruments permit standard and automatic multi‐wavelength measurements of solar extinction radiance centred on the solar disk as well as sky radiance scans off the solar disk. These data yields aerosol optical depth, the Ångström exponent, aerosol particle volume size distribution, refractive index, column‐averaged single scattering albedo, and precipitable water vapour content. Spatial and temporal trends of these parameters as well as observed inter‐correlations are discussed. The results demonstrate the utility and significance of these types of measurements and illustrate the potential applications of networked sunphotometry data. 相似文献

Summary Having in mind the high complexity of the sky radiance distribution, the Commission of the European Communities, in the frame
of the Solar Energy R&D in the European Community Programme, developed among other related fields of research a clear sky
radiance model. This model, the so-called EC-Model, was intended for the estimation of the diffuse irradiance falling on an
inclined surface by integration of the sky radiance field. It represents a progress development over its predecessor, the
Berlin model, and takes into account all the scientific knowledge about this topic, lying heavily on the principles of the
Liebelt formulation and the work of Steven and Unsworth on the observed relative radiance distribution. The European Solar
Radiation Atlas was in part prepared by the adoption of the EC-Model and could not take into account Valko’s new results about
sky radiance distributions, because of time coincidence and that only previous results were ready at the time it was published.
In this work, we focus on the EC-Model behaviour, against experimental sky radiance data from Toronto, Canada. The SKYSCAN’834
Data Set is a well-known database, which we have used in order to investigate the EC-Model behaviour both under its original
formulation (the one that has been used in the development of the Atlas) and under the modified version suggested by Valko’s
results. Even though we are considering data from outside Europe, the results of this test let us establish the model limitations
and the modifications that should be done to it.

On the assimilation of satellite sounder data in cloudy skies in numerical weather prediction models 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
Satellite measurements are an important source of global observations in support of numerical weather prediction (NWP). The assimilation of satellite radiances under clear skies has greatly improved NWP forecast scores. However, the application of radiances in cloudy skies remains a significant challenge. In order to better assimilate radiances in cloudy skies, it is very important to detect any clear field-of-view (FOV) accurately and assimilate cloudy radiances appropriately. Research progress on both clear FOV detection methodologies and cloudy radiance assimilation techniques are reviewed in this paper. Overview on approaches being implemented in the operational centers and studied by the satellite data assimilation research community is presented. Challenges and future directions for satellite sounder radiance assimilation in cloudy skies in NWP models are also discussed. 相似文献

Infrared radiance spectra measured in space or on the ground have been used for many applications, such as the retrieval of atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles. The Korean Meteorological Administration (KMA) recently installed an Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) system at the Korea Global Atmosphere Watch Center (36°32??N, 125°19??E) in Anmyondo to measure the downward radiance spectra on the ground. For further utilization of such interferometeric radiance measurements, an accurate line-by-line radiative transfer model is required. This study introduces a line-by-line radiative transfer model developed at Kyungpook National University (KNU_LBL) and presents comparisons of spectra simulated using the KNU_LBL model and measured by the AERI system, that is installed inside a secure container. When compared with the Atmospheric and Environmental Research (AER) radiative transfer codes, the KNU_LBL model provides nearly identical spectra for various model atmospheres. The simulated spectra are also in good agreement with the AERI spectra for clear sky conditions, and a further improvement is made when taking into account of the emissions and absorption by CO2 and H2O for the light path inside the container, even though the path is short. 相似文献

三维辐射传输模式分析非均匀云对天空辐射场影响 总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3
为了解非均匀分立云体分布状况下的天空辐射场与无云晴空辐射场的差异, 本文借助一个三维辐射传输数值模式SHDOM模拟了离散云块分布条件下的天空辐射场分布, 重点分析不同云况分布情况下“非云”大气的辐射分布特征, 并将该区域与无云晴空大气辐射场的相同区域进行了比对。工作主要从辐亮度以及450 nm/650 nm的辐射比两参数入手进行讨论。研究发现, 相对无云晴空大气, 云的存在会对周围“非云”大气散射辐射产生影响, 影响程度与云量、云及气溶胶光学厚度等参数相关。数值模拟结果表明, 在云量不太大的条件下, 无云视场空间的大部分辐射值与无云晴空相比变化很小, 集中在±2％之间。这一结果表明, 已有的一维均匀大气辐射传输模式运算结果所得云与非云相元的判据基本适用于非均匀分布的有云大气。另一方面, 模拟结果表明我们也完全可以利用非均匀有云大气中的无云视场观测结果进行大气气溶胶等晴空大气光学特征的探测研究。 相似文献

Abstract Irradiance data obtained over a long period at Vancouver and Toronto, Canada, and covering a range of slope orientations are used to validate four models that estimate either the direct or diffuse solar irradiances for inclined surfaces. Evaluations are initially performed for daily and hourly time integrals. A simple parametrization of the diffuse sky radiance dramatically improves estimates of the diffuse irradiance. Both of the direct irradiance models have difficulty accommodating the diurnal characteristics of the irradiance, and consequently modelling errors are substantial for slopes not directly facing the equator. For equator‐facing slopes a saving in data requirements and computational effort through the use of daily integrals can be achieved with little additional error. A substantial portion of the differences between the measured and estimated irradiances is non‐systematic in nature and is therefore reduced through temporal averaging. 相似文献

Abstract Short‐ and long‐wave sky radiances measured with an all‐sky automatic recording radiometer are used to infer the sky cloud‐cover conditions at 10‐min intervals (night) and 20‐min intervals (day). During the day a simple net short‐wave detector provides supplementary data and can be employed as a clear‐sky indicator. This system of cloud detection is controlled by a PET microcomputer and provides a basis for the automatic computer programmed estimation of cloud cover. 相似文献

The aerosol scattering phase function near 10o, its weighted phase function near 40o introduced in this paper, which can be inferred from sky radiance data, and the radiance near 90o are respectively used in retrieving the real part of refractive index, its imaginary part and surface albedo. Results in numerical experiments are satisfactory under different given conditions. 相似文献

An approximate expression of the sky radiance in almucantar is confirmed in this paper. Under the conditions with molecular optical depth<0.3, aerosol (or cloud) optical depth<0.6, solar zenith angle< 75° and scattering angle<30°, the errors of the sky radiance and the aerosol phase function computed from the expression are respectively less than 8 % and 10 %, but the phase functions computed from Box-Deepak formula and single-scattering formula can be 84 % and 260 % more than the exact value, respectively. Furthermore, by use of the expression we have inferred the volume scattering functions of 1°≤θ≤30° for retrieving aerosol size distribution with the conclusion that the distribution information in the range of 0.1相似文献

Abstract The direct assimilation of satellite radiances is now operational in a few forecast centres, providing global temperature (T) and moisture (Q) information. The critical parameters which influence the quality of the resulting analysis are mainly the selection of channels, the respective errors of the background field and radiance observations, and the quality of the radiative transfer model. These various aspects are studied from sensitivity experiments based on 1‐D variational assimilations using the ensemble of 19 infrared channels (HIRS) of the NOAA‐14 satellite. It is shown that significant improvements in the retrievals would be obtained if the radiance observation error (measurement plus radiative transfer), currently estimated to be about equal to that of the background (in radiance units), were decreased. This could in principle be achieved by improving the forward radiative transfer model (RTM). Two RTMs suitable for radiance assimilation are compared in terms of analyzed increments, Jacobians, brightness temperature and equivalent background error. Important differences are noted for all of these interrelated measures. The existence of air‐mass dependent biases of fast radiative transfer models of the order of 1.5 K is confirmed in several channels from additional comparison with a line‐by‐line model. The importance of correctly specifying surface emissivity and the effective angle for downward calculations is demonstrated. The paper also evaluates, in some detail, the impact of uncertainties on the background error covariance matrix. The uncertainty on the skin temperature (TJ error affects mostly the retrieval of that parameter; it has a modest impact on the T and Q profiles in the low troposphere. The uncertainty on the Q‐Q elements has more impact than that on the T‐T elements. Off‐diagonal elements of the background error covariance matrix are very important as they impose smoothness and level‐to‐level consistency, especially for Q retrievals. Finally, Ts‐T correlations, often ignored, could result in significant improvements in the retrieval of temperature at low levels. Research issues are discussed in the conclusion. 相似文献

晴空与有云大气辐射分布的数值模拟及其对全天空图像云识别的应用 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
全天空图像自动云识别的研究相对来说是一项较新的研究领域。当前国际上较为通用的全天空图像云识别方法主要依靠图像蓝红灰度值对比的阈值方法进行判断。然而非洁净大气中气溶胶的增多给云识别增加了难度,同时太阳高度角不同天空色度分布情况也不同。文中利用Libradtran辐射传输模式,计算了不同能见度不同太阳高度角情况下3个典型波长(450,550,650nm;蓝/绿/红)无云及有云大气的天空辐亮度分布情况,并进行了比较分析。结果表明,相同太阳高度角情况下,无云及有云大气中蓝红比值随能见度的下降呈单调下降趋势。在特定的云光学厚度和能见度情况下,天空色度彼此呈现出类似的分布状况。全天空图像阈值判断云识别自适应算法的建立需要与太阳高度角、地面能见度联系起来。当前尚无法建立一个判断阈值随太阳高度角以及能见度变化的函数关系式。较为可行的办法是建立典型能见度、典型太阳高度角情况下的辐射信息库,在具体云识别时,首先确定太阳高度角,而后根据天空辐射比情况确定天空能见度,并利用辐射信息标准库做云或非云判别。该工作为全天空云识别算法提供判别依据,同时建立云识别随能见度和太阳高度角变化的判别信息库。 相似文献

Surface irradiance measurements with high temporal resolution can be used to detect clear skies, which is a critical step for further study, such as aerosol and cloud radiative effects. Twenty-one clear-sky detection (CSD) methods are assessed based on five years of 1-min surface irradiance data at Xianghe—a heavily polluted station on the North China Plain. Total-sky imager (TSI) discrimination results corrected by manual checks are used as the benchmark for the evaluation. The performance heavily relies on the criteria adopted by the CSD methods. Those with higher cloudy-sky detection accuracy rates produce lower clear-sky accuracy rates, and vice versa. A general tendency in common among all CSD methods is the detection accuracy deteriorates when aerosol loading increases. Nearly all criteria adopted in CSD methods are too strict to detect clear skies under polluted conditions, which is more severe if clear-sky irradiance is not properly estimated. The mean true positive rate (CSD method correctly detects clear sky) decreases from 45% for aerosol optical depth (AOD) 0.2% to 6% for AOD > 0.5. The results clearly indicate that CSD methods in a highly polluted region still need further improvements.摘要根据位于华北平原的重污染站点——香河5年的分钟级别地表太阳辐射和人工订正的全天空成像仪数据, 对21种晴空识别 (CSD) 方法进行了评估:晴空识别准确率较高的方法云天识别准确率较低, 反之亦然;由于CSD 方法采用的参数阈值不适用于污染情况, 当气溶胶含量增加时, 识别准确率呈下降趋势.研究结果显示, 利用太阳辐射数据识别晴空的方法在高污染地区使用时需进行改进. 相似文献
