Usable solar radiation and its attenuation in the upper water column
A new radiometric term named as usable solar radiation (USR) is defined to represent the spectrally integrated solar irradiance in the spectral window of 400–560 nm. Through numerical simulations of optically deep waters covering a wide range of optical properties, it is found that the diffuse attenuation coefficient of downwelling USR, Kd(USR), is nearly a constant vertically for almost all oc...
متن کاملPenetration of UV-visible solar radiation in the global oceans: Insights from ocean color remote sensing
[1] Penetration of solar radiation in the ocean is determined by the attenuation coefficient (Kd( )). Following radiative transfer theory, Kd is a function of angular distribution of incident light and water’s absorption and backscattering coefficients. Because these optical products are now generated routinely from satellite measurements, it is logical to evolve the empirical Kd to a semianaly...
متن کاملThe Energy Dependence of the Photoelectric Attenuation Coefficient of Substances
Introduction: The photoelectric attenuation coefficient of substances is known to depend upon the energy E of the photon and the effective atomic number of substances (Zeff) as (Zeffx/Ey). No definitive values about these indices x, y are given in the literature. The index x is said to lie between, 3.0 and 4.0, while for ‘y’ different values have been assigned, between 3.0 and 4.0. Method...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of the Available Measured Global Solar Radiation in Iraq
In Iraq, solar radiation field measurements are available only for very limited locations such as some universities and research centers. This article reviews and compares the measured monthly averaged global solar radiation data for Iraqi provinces and cities available in the literature and studies over the internet especially Go...
متن کاملUsing Solar Spatial Analyst to Calculate Global Solar Radiation, 22th Region of Tehran as the Case Study
Solar Radiation is considered as an important parameter in modeling environmental, hydrologic and biophysical processes. One of the reasons that solar radiations are not extensively used in models is the problem of its measurement in different points. Solar Analyst Viewshed Algorithm makes possible calculation of the topographic effects on solar radiation at local and landscape scales. With res...
