Bishop's High-resolution (DX) Surface Solar Irradiance derived
|
|
Global surface solar irradiance data derived from ISCCP data in
0.5-degree-square boxes. Daily values of total irradiance, clear
sky irradiance, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR, 400-70
irradiance, cloud fraction, diffuse fraction of PAR and land/oce
The 2.5-degree version 2 results are archived in ds741.0 dataset.
