  2. File:Solar spectrum en.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Solar_spectrum_en.svg

    Português: A figua mostra o espectro da radiação solar direta, tanto na parte mais alta da atmosfera terrestre (representado pela área em amarelo) como ao nível do mar (área em vermelho). O Sol emite radiação com uma distribuição similar ao que seria esperado de um corpo negro a 5778 K (5505 °C), que é a temperatura aproximada da ...

  3. Solar irradiance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_irradiance

    Solar radiation maps are built using databases derived from satellite imagery, as for example using visible images from Meteosat Prime satellite. A method is applied to the images to determine solar radiation. One well validated satellite-to-irradiance model is the SUNY model. [39] The accuracy of this model is well evaluated.

  4. Solar map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_map

    Though solar maps are illustrated in many forms, a solar map essentially records where and to what extent a certain location experiences a certain amount of sunlight or radiation. It normally combines topographic, meteorological, and sometimes financial data [ 1 ] to help scholars or consumers and investors in promoting awareness of the ...

    Comprehensive overview of the Solar System The Sun, planets, dwarf planets and moons are at scale for their relative sizes, not for distances. A separate distance scale is at the bottom.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemispherical_photography

    Hemispherical photograph used to study microclimate of winter roosting habitat at the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve, Mexico.. Hemispherical photography, also known as canopy photography, is a technique to estimate solar radiation and characterize plant canopy geometry using photographs taken looking upward through an extreme wide-angle lens or a fisheye lens (Rich 1990).

    Global Solar Atlas (GSA v2.2): screenshot of the interactive map interface (status Jun 2020). Site detail view (in this case for the location Bhadla, Rajasthan, India) summarises the data important for preliminary site assessment of a photovoltaic power plant Global map of Photovoltaic Power Potential downloadable via the Global Solar Atlas (GSA 2.2) Download section feature with more than a ...

  8. Sun path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_path

    A 2021 publication [8] about solar geometry first calculates the x-, y-, and z-component of the solar vector, which is a unit vector with its tail fixed at the observer's location and its head kept pointing toward the Sun, and then uses the components to calculate the solar zenith angle and solar azimuth angle. The calculated solar vector at 1 ...

  9. Cloud albedo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_albedo

    NASA graphic representing the distribution of solar radiation. Cloud albedo is a measure of the albedo or reflectivity of a cloud. Clouds regulate the amount of solar radiation absorbed by a planet and its solar surface irradiance. Generally, increased cloud cover correlates to a higher albedo and a lower absorption of solar energy.
