Earth System Science Workbench: Global Surface Radiation Data Products
Entry ID:
UCSB_ESSW_GSR
Summary
Abstract:
The 2001 program is a radiative transfer model that calculates solar
radiation flux to the surface. The model is based on simple, physical modeling of the most important radiative processes occurring within the atmosphere, namely scattering and absorption by clouds, atmospheric gases and aerosols. Visible spectrum geostationary satellite imagery is used to compute ... ![]()
