Surface Uv Radiation Monitoring Based on Gome and Sciamachy
Solar UV radiation reaching the Earth’s surface is monitored by means of two quantities: the clear-sky UV index at local solar noon and the daily UV dose. Each quantity is determined on the basis of two action spectra, describing wavelength dependent biological effects of UV radiation, namely erythema (sunburn) and DNA-damage. The quantities are derived from total ozone column measurements by t...
متن کاملA Satellite-derived Uv Radiation Climatology over Europe Available for Impact Studies: Daily Maps from January
The paper briefly presents a methodology for mapping surface UV radiation that uses a radiative transfer model and satellite data to quantify the influencing factors. TOMS, TOVS and GOME data are used for the total column ozone. The cloud optical thickness is estimated using METEOSAT/MVIRI data. Other influencing factors taken into account include tropospheric aerosols, snow cover and surface e...
متن کاملDownscaling Meteosat Land Surface Temperature over a Heterogeneous Landscape Using a Data Assimilation Approach
A wide range of environmental applications require the monitoring of land surface temperature (LST) at frequent intervals and fine spatial resolutions, but these conditions are not offered nowadays by the available space sensors. To overcome these shortcomings, LST downscaling methods have been developed to derive higher resolution LST from the available satellite data. This research concerns t...
متن کاملA method to generate near real time UV-Index maps of Austria
A method is presented that combines individual ground based ultraviolet (UV) measurements from the Austrian UVB monitoring network and area-wide data of the distribution of clouds derived from satellite images to generate a UV-Index map all over the region. The Austrian UVB Monitoring network provides near real time ground based 5 measurements of surface UV irradiance from fifteen selected loca...
متن کاملUsing Computers to Individually-generate vs. Collaboratively-generate Concept Maps
Five eighth grade science classes of students in at a middle school were assigned to three treatment groups: those who individually concept mapped, those who collaboratively concept mapped, and those who independently used their study time. The findings revealed that individually generating concept maps on computers during study time positively influenced science concept learning above and beyo...
