Notes on the measurement and estimation of atmospheric radiation –2

Notes on the measurement and estimation of atmospheric radiation –2 An account is given of further measurements of atmospheric radiation which confirm former conclusions regarding the errors of two types of radiation chart when used to compute total radiation at the surface. The greater part of the difference between computed and observed radiation is attributed to two causes – emission from particulate matter and the variation of emissivity of water vapour with temperature. The results suggest a form for this variation between −5°C and +25°C. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png The Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society Wiley

Abstract

An account is given of further measurements of atmospheric radiation which confirm former conclusions regarding the errors of two types of radiation chart when used to compute total radiation at the surface. The greater part of the difference between computed and observed radiation is attributed to two causes – emission from particulate matter and the variation of emissivity of water vapour with temperature. The results suggest a form for this variation between −5°C and +25°C.
