Chinese scientists actually monitor solar radiation on the earth’s surface
Beijing, Bolong.id – Chinese scientists create a system for monitoring solar radiation on the earth’s surface.
Reporting from 人民网 Friday (01/12/23), this product is important for solar power generation, agricultural products, human health and carbon capture.
Researchers from the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences built a series of high-resolution remote sensing products, utilizing observation data generated by geostationary meteorological satellites including China’s Fengyun-4 Series and Japan’s Himawari-8/9.
“This system considers gas absorption in the atmosphere and surface reflection in areas covered with ice and snow, and overcomes the problem of calculating the light scattering of clouds and aerosol particles in the atmosphere,” said Husi Letu, a researcher from AIR.
It is capable of high-precision, high-frequency, smooth, and near real-time monitoring of surface solar radiation, and shows significant advantages in monitoring snow and ice areas with rapid changes in solar radiation under clouds, such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plain.
