Validation of CM SAF Surface Solar Radiation Datasets over Finland and Sweden
Accurate determination of the amount of incoming solar radiation at Earth’s surface is important for both climate studies and solar power applications. Satellite-based datasets of solar radiation offer wide spatial and temporal coverage, but careful validation of their quality is a necessary prerequisite for reliable utilization. Here we study the retrieval quality of one polar-orbiting satelli...
متن کاملValidation of Msg Derived Surface Incoming Global Short-wave Radiation Products over Belgium
Appropriate information on solar resources is very important for a variety of technological areas, such as: agriculture, meteorology, forestry engineering, water resources and in particular in the designing, sizing and monitoring of solar energy systems. Solar radiation is observed by means of networks of meteorological stations. However, the availability of observed solar radiation measurement...
متن کاملValidation of the Lsa Saf Fvc and Lai Prototype Algorithm with Polder/adeos Data over Western Europe
The SAF on Land Surface Analysis (LSA SAF) is aimed to produce operationally land surface products taking full advantage of the new EUMETSAT meteorological satellites by the end of its Initial Operational phase (2005-2007). Our main concern in LSA SAF is to develop the algorithm for retrieving Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Fraction of Vegetation Cover (FVC), as well as to validate the derived produ...
متن کاملHomogeneity Analysis of the CM SAF Surface Solar Irradiance Dataset Derived from Geostationary Satellite Observations
A satellite-based climate record of monthly mean surface solar irradiance (SIS) is investigated with regard to possible inhomogeneities in time. The data record is provided by the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring (CM SAF) for the period of 1983 to 2005, covering a disk area between ±70◦ in lat...
متن کاملPrecipitation products from the hydrology SAF
The EUMETSAT Satellite Application Facility on Support to Operational Hydrology and Water Management (H-SAF) was established by the EUMETSAT Council on 3 July 2005, starting activity on 1 September 2005. The Italian Meteorological Service serves as Leading Entity on behalf of twelve European member countries. H-SAF products include precipitation, soil moisture and snow parameters. Some products...
