  4. Solar activity and climate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_activity_and_climate

    The finding that solar activity was approximately the same in cycles 14 and 24 applies to all solar outputs that have, in the past, been proposed as a potential cause of terrestrial climate change and includes total solar irradiance, cosmic ray fluxes, spectral UV irradiance, solar wind speed and/or density, heliospheric magnetic field and its ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Photovoltaic system performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system...

    PV performance can be measured as the ratio of actual solar PV system output vs expected values, the measurement being essential for proper solar PV facility's operation and maintenance. The primary energy input is the global light irradiance in the plane of the solar arrays, and this in turn is a combination of the direct and the diffuse ...

  7. Solar constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_constant

    Solar irradiance spectrum at top of atmosphere, on a linear scale and plotted against wavenumber. The solar constant (G SC) measures the amount of energy received by a given area one astronomical unit away from the Sun. More specifically, it is a flux density measuring mean solar electromagnetic radiation (total solar irradiance) per unit

  8. Light level geolocator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_level_geolocator

    A light level geolocator, light-level logger or global location sensor (GLS) is a lightweight, electronic archival tracking device, usually used in bird migration research to map migration routes, identify important staging areas, and sometimes provide additional ecological information.

  9. GOES-16 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOES-16

    The Extreme Ultraviolet and X-ray Irradiance Sensors (EXIS) are a pair of sensors that monitor solar irradiance in the Earth's upper atmosphere. In monitoring irradiance, EXIS can detect solar flares which can disrupt power grids , communications, and navigational systems on Earth and satellites.
