[CF-metadata] Definiton of solar_irradiance

Roy,


I'm not sure about the wavelength range, and the standard names don't
pin it down anywhere. The mighty Wikipedia says that it covers 100 -
5000 nm, or 200 - 3000 nm. Your range definitely fits within either.
Without a specifier, I think people would assume that it is over all
wavelengths, not just shortwave. If you want shortwave only, then I
guess that would need to be a more precise term.


Grace and peace,


Jim

Is there any difference between TOA incoming radiative flux (in W m-2) and horizontal irradiance that I am missing?

>> Hello again,
>>
>>
>> What we map to the 'solar_irradiance' Standard name are parameters such as 'Downwelling vector irradiance as energy of electromagnetic radiation (solar wavelengths) in the atmosphere by pyranometer'. So in the use case I was thinking of it's both a horizontal surface and a surface perpendicular to the direction of flow of the radiant energy i.e. we have made an assumption the the direction of flow of the radiant energy is perpendicular to the Earth's surface.
>>
>>
>> Consequently, I would amend the definition as below rather than redefining from scratch with the risk you pointed out of changing the semantics of existing data sets.

>> "Irradiance" means the power per unit area (called radiative flux in other standard names), the area being normal to the direction of flow of the radiant energy. The area is a horizontal surface for radiant energy flowing perpendicular to the Earth's surface.

>> If we were starting from scratch I would recommend the following:
>>
>> Solar irradiance is the power per unit area of the solar radiation received from above at horizontal surface. It is distinct from the Direct Normal Irradiance (which refers to radiation received by a surface perpendicular to rays travelling from the sun) and the Total Solar Irradiance (which is the mean value of Direct Normal Irradiance at a standard distance from the sun).
>>
>> I am, however, concerned that people may have already, on the basis of the current definition, used the term for Total Solar Irradiance.

So, I would like to think of solar_irradiance as being horizontal_solar_irradiance and if any new Standard Name is required to cover the current Vaisala instrumentation use case then that should be normal_standard_irradiance.

>> Hello,
>>
>> the cf standard name has a definition:
>>
>> The quantity with standard name solar_irradiance, often called Total Solar Irradiance (TSI), is the radiation from the sun integrated over the whole electromagnetic spectrum and over the entire solar disk. The quantity applies outside the atmosphere, by default at a distance of one astronomical unit from the sun, but a coordinate or scalar coordinate variable of distance_from_sun can be used to specify a value other than the default. "Irradiance" means the power per unit area (called radiative flux in other standard names), the area being normal to the direction of flow of the radiant energy.
>>
>> My question is about the last phrase, which I have highlighted. The flow of radiant energy from the sun at the top of the atmosphere is directed away from the sun .. so this definition would imply that the irradiance is defined relative to a fixed plane in the solar coordinate system. This is OK for solar physicists, but atmospheric scientists are sometime interested in irradiance relative to a horizontal surface.
>>
>> Vaisalla distinguish between the two by defining "horizontal solar irradiance" to be the irradiance on a horizontal surface and "normal solar irradiance" to be irradiance on a surface perpendicular to a line to the sun (<UrlBlockedError.aspx>http://www.3tier.com/en/support/solar-online-tools/what-solar-values-are-shown-map/ ).
