Modification of solar radiation model over rugged terrain

X LiG Cheng, X Chen, L Lu - Chinese Science Bulletin, 1999 - Springer
The formula for the duration of possible sunshine has been modified. Two geometrical
factors, the circumsolar view factor and the isotropic view factor for calculating solar
radiation, have been proposed. The ray-tracing method in computer cartography has been …

Pathway of anthracene modification under simulated solar radiation

A Mallakin, DG Dixon, BM Greenberg - Chemosphere, 2000 - Elsevier
Exposure of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to sunlight results in rapid structural
photomodification generally via oxidation reactions. These PAH modification products are in
many cases more toxic than their parent compounds. In this study, anthracene (ANT), a …

Modification of solar radiation components under different atmospheric conditions in the Greater Athens Area, Greece

DG KaskaoutisHD KambezidisCP Jacovides… - … Atmospheric and Solar …, 2006 - Elsevier
The influence of the atmospheric turbidity on the spectral distribution of solar irradiance
components is investigated using ground-based spectroradiometric measurements taken in
Athens area during May 1995. It is found that both the diffuse-to-global and diffuse-to-direct …

Impact of Solar Radiation Modification on Allowable CO2 Emissions: What Can We Learn From Multimodel Simulations?

M Plazzotta, R SéférianH Douville - Earth's Future, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Solar radiation modification (SRM) is known to strengthen both land and ocean carbon
uptake because of its impacts on surface temperature, solar radiation, and other potential
drivers of the global carbon cycle. However, the magnitude and timing of the response of …

temperature. INTRODUCTION … The maximum error in estimating the solar radiation with the
proposed modification was 15%. APPENDIX I. REFERENCES Allen, RG (1989) …

[PDF] Effects of tree canopies on solar radiation filtration in a tropical microclimatic environment

MF ShahidanE Salleh, KM Shariff - PLEA2007 conference …, 2007 - academia.edu
… 2.1 Radiation Modification In general, microclimate consists of six components that affect the
condition of small outdoor spaces. The components are solar radiation, terrestrial radiation, wind,
air temperature, humidity, and precipitation which are the important elements in …

Solar Radiation Modification‐A “Silver Bullet” Climate Policy for Populist and Authoritarian Regimes?

A Michaelowa - Global Policy, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Populist and authoritarian leaders are increasingly coming to power in large countries. They
often have a climate sceptic approach and do away with mitigation policies when coming to
power. Increasing impacts of extreme meteorological events linked to climate change could …

A comparison of Mesua ferrea L. and Hura crepitans L. for shade creation and radiation modification in improving thermal comfort

MF Shahidan, MKM Shariff, P Jones, E Salleh… - Landscape and Urban …, 2010 - Elsevier
… The results from this study indicate that both M. ferrea L. and H. crepitans L. contribute significantly
to direct thermal radiation modification below their canopies. The average solar filtration under
the tree canopy for M. ferrea L. was 93%, with 5% canopy transmissivity, 6.1% of …

Relative influence of weather conditions and air pollutants on solar radiation–Part 2: Modification of solar radiation over urban and rural sites

HK Elminir - Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 2007 - Springer
In the first part of this study, intensive measurements of particulate matter and trace gaseous
were made to assess the characteristics of air pollutants in 14 sites covering most of Egypt,
and to present a clear picture about the relationship of air pollutants with meteorology. The …
