摘要 美国已经建立了表面辐射收支观测网络(SURFRAD),以支持卫星反演验证、建模以及气候、水文和天气研究。主要测量是宽带太阳和热红外辐照度的下降流和上升流分量。该网络的一个特点是测量和计算对辐射传输很重要的辅助参数。 SURFRAD于1995年开始运行。目前,它由六个不同气候的站组成,包括美国东南部湿润的亚热带环境、凉爽干燥的北部平原以及炎热干旱的西南部沙漠。网络运营涉及严格的频繁校准、质量保证和数据质量控制制度。建立了高效的支撑基础设施,以快速收集、检查和传播基础数据。每个站点的质量控制每日处理数据文件通常可通过...
Abstract A surface radiation budget observing network (SURFRAD) has been established for the United States to support satellite retrieval validation, modeling, and climate, hydrology, and weather research. The primary measurements are the downwelling and upwelling components of broadband solar and thermal infrared irradiance. A hallmark of the network is the measurement and computation of ancillary parameters important to the transmission of radiation. SURFRAD commenced operation in 1995. Presently, it is made up of six stations in diverse climates, including the moist subtropical environment of the U.S. southeast, the cool and dry northern plains, and the hot and arid desert southwest. Network operation involves a rigorous regimen of frequent calibration, quality assurance, and data quality control. An efficient supporting infrastructure has been created to gather, check, and disseminate the basic data expeditiously. Quality controlled daily processed data files from each station are usually available vi...
