Shortwave radiation density flux (SRDF) modeling can be key in estimating actual evapotranspiration plants. SRDF is the result of specific and scattered reflection shortwave by underlying surface. have profound effects on some plant biophysical processes such as photosynthesis land surface energy budgets. Since it main source for most atmospheric phenomena, also widely used numerical weather fo...

The Biosphere-Atmosphere Transfer Scheme (BATS) ground snow albedo algorithm is commonly used in land-surface models (LSM), weather forecasting and research applications. This study addresses key uncertainties BATS simulated within the Noah-MP LSM framework through evaluation optimization of formulation using 2-band (visible near-infrared (NIR)) situ observations at Rocky Mountain field station...

Abstract. The Nonhydrostatic ICosahedral Atmospheric Model (NICAM), a global model with an icosahedral grid system, has been under development for nearly two decades. This paper describes NICAM16-S, the latest stable version of NICAM (NICAM.16), modified Coupled Intercomparison Project Phase 6, High Resolution (HighResMIP). Major updates NICAM.12, previous used climate simulations, included clo...

Changes in surface net radiation Rn control the earth’s climate, the hydrological cycle, and plant photosynthesis. However, Rn is not readily available. This study develops a method to estimate surface daytime Rn from solar shortwave radiation measurements as well as conventional meteorological observations (or satellite retrievals) including daily minimum temperature, daily temperature range, ...

an analysis is carried out to investigate the effects of variable chemical reaction, thermophoresis, temperaturedependent viscosity and thermal radiation on an unsteady mhd free convective heat and mass transfer flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid past an impulsively started infinite inclined porous plate by taking into account the viscous dissipation effects. the g...

In this article we analyze 11 years of near-surface meteorology using observations from an open-ocean surface mooring located in the Northwestern Tropical Atlantic (51°W, 15°N). Air-sea fluxes heat, freshwater, and momentum are derived these Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) bulk parameterization. Using dataset, compute a climatology annual cycle meteorological conditions air...

Data from the ScaRaB radiometer flown on board the Meteor3/7 satellite were employed for validating a TOA Earth radiation budget product generated from GOES-7 for the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program. Comparisons were made between coincident and collocated shortwave and long-wave radiative quantities derived from ScaRaB and GOES sensors over the Southern Great Plains (SGP) Cloud ...
