Journal ArticleDOI
The Color of Light in Forests and Its Implications
TL;DR: The structure of forests leads to four major light habitats when the sun is not blocked by clouds: forest shade, woodland shade, small gaps, and large gaps, respectively, characterized by yellow—green, blue—gray, reddish, and "white" ambient light spectra, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new simplified version of the perez diffuse irradiance model for tilted surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, a simplified version of the Perez[1] diffuse irradiance model is presented, which is one of those used currently to estimate short time step (hourly or less) irradiance on tilted planes based on global and direct (or diffuse) irradiances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light and marine photosynthesis: a spectral model with geochemical and climatological implications
TL;DR: In this article, a spectral light-production model based on the local and instantaneous growth rate equation (Kiefer and Mitchell, 1983) is proposed to model the relationship between available photosynthetic energy at the ocean surface and energy stored by algal photosynthesis, once it has been normalized with respect to column integrated chlorophyll biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling topographic variation in solar radiation in a GIS environment
TL;DR: Clear sky shortwave solar radiation varies in response to altitude and elevation, surface gradient (slope) and orientation (aspect), as well as position relative to neighbouring surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solar radiation prediction using Artificial Neural Network techniques: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the main objective of this study is to review Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based techniques in order to identify suitable methods available in the literature for solar radiation prediction and to identify research gaps.

Solar radiation model
Ling Tim Wong,Wan Ki Chow +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Angstrom-Prescott equation to predict the average daily global radiation with hours of sunshine for Hong Kong (22.3°N latitude, 114. 3°E longitude).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A practical analytic model for daylight
TL;DR: An inexpensive analytic model that approximates full spectrum daylight for various atmospheric conditions is presented that is fielded in a number of conditions and intermediate results verified against standard literature from atmospheric science.
Journal ArticleDOI
MAX‐DOAS O4 measurements: A new technique to derive information on atmospheric aerosols: 2. Modeling studies
TL;DR: In this paper, a new retrieval algorithm for the determination of aerosol properties using Multi-AXis Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (MAX-DOAS) measurements based on nonlinear optimal estimation is presented.

Passive directional sub-ambient daytime radiative cooling
Bikram Bhatia,Arny Leroy,Yichen Shen,Lin Zhao,Melissa Gianello,Duanhui Li,Tian Gu,Juejun Hu,Marin Soljacic,Evelyn N. Wang +9 more
TL;DR: A directional approach to passive radiative cooling that exploits the angular confinement of solar irradiation in the sky to achieve sub-ambient cooling during the day regardless of the emitter properties in the solar spectrum is shown.
