An Advanced Model for the Estimation of the Surface Solar Irradiance Under All Atmospheric Conditions Using MSG/SEVIRI Data

摘要: A new advanced model for estimation of surface solar irradiance from satellite (AMESIS), designed to estimate with better accuracy the incident radiation at spinning enhanced visible and infrared imager (SEVIRI) measurements, has been developed. The generations sensors such as SEVIRI payload on board geostationary meteosat second generation gives an opportunity improve well high spatial time resolution a large geographical area according needs energy applications. developed takes into account effect aerosol, overcast partially cloudy coverage, provides maps every 15 min both monitoring purposes monthly, annual averages irradiance. Cloud aerosol microphysical parameters are retrieved by using VIS IR channels, while is through high-resolution broadband channel. Comparisons Global Atmosphere Watch station ground-based measurements incoming agree values AMESIS model. results show very good correlation about 0.99, root mean square bias ranging, respectively, between 1 2.7 J/cm2 -0.6 0.4 depending station.
