Aerosol and cloud radiative forcing over various hot spot regions in India

Aerosol radiative effects in photosynthetically active radiation and total irradiance at a Mediterranean site from an 11-year database

“…Different methodologies to estimate ARF have been proposed in literature. An extended method involves the use of radiative transfer models to estimate the net irradiance fluxes (Eswaran et al, 2019;Mateos et al, 2014;Sivan & Manoj, 2019). However, this procedure involves relevant assumptions such as the atmospheric composition and the aerosol layer description, which could lead to important errors.…”
