Estimation of the All-Wave All-Sky Land Surface Daily Net Radiation at Mid-Low Latitudes from MODIS Data Based on ERA5 Constraints

Shaopeng Li et al.

Summary: The study proposes a RF-based model with ERA5 data to estimate daily all-wave net radiation at mid-low latitudes, achieving satisfactory performance and strong potential for long-term accurate global mapping. Validation against in situ measurements demonstrates the superiority of the model compared to existing products and its effectiveness in the presence of limited satellite observations or overcast skies.

Evaluation of MERRA-2 hourly surface solar radiation across China

Yunfei Du et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the performance of MERRA-2's global horizontal irradiance (GHI) in China by comparing it with ground station observations. The results show that MERRA-2 overestimates GHI in all-sky, clear-sky, and cloudy conditions. The underestimation of cloud fraction is identified as the dominant factor causing the overestimation of MERRA-2 GHI.

A global long-term ocean surface daily/0.05° net radiation product from 1983-2020

Hui Liang et al.

Summary: A new long-term global daily net radiation product for the ocean surface was generated in this study, addressing the shortcomings of existing datasets. By fusing multiple datasets and comparing with in-situ measurements, estimates and growth rates of global ocean surface net radiation were obtained, providing valuable data for oceanic and climatic studies.

Evaluation of aerosol optical depths and clear-sky radiative fluxes of the CERES Edition 4.1 SYN1deg data product

David W. Fillmore et al.

Summary: This article evaluates the aerosol optical depths (AODs) used for the CERES SYN1deg product and finds that clear-sky AODs closely match with those derived from MODIS instruments, while all-sky AODs are larger. The comparison with other data sources suggests that MATCH AODs are generally larger than MERRA-2 AODs, especially over convective regions. The positive biases in downward shortwave irradiance and AOD for desert sites may be due to dust particle size and distribution.

A global long-term (1981-2019) daily land surface radiation budget product from AVHRR satellite data using a residual convolutional neural network

Jianglei Xu et al.

Summary: The surface radiation budget (R-n) is a crucial parameter for various land surface processes. This study proposes a new method to estimate R-n using satellite data and creates a global high-resolution long-term product. The method improves accuracy by incorporating spatially adjacent information and training the model with ground measurements. The results show that the product is highly accurate and outperforms other existing R-n products.

Newly collected data across Alaska reveal remarkable biases in solar radiation products

Kang Wang et al.

Summary: Data on surface solar radiation in high-latitude regions are limited, and the performance of 11 solar radiation products in Alaska has been evaluated, with results indicating a need for improvement. ERA5, MERRA2, and ERA-Interim were found to perform the best in Alaska out of the products evaluated.

The ERA5 global reanalysis: Preliminary extension to 1950

Bill Bell et al.

Summary: The extension of the ERA5 reanalysis back to 1950 improves the previously published segment covering 1979 to the present by assimilating more traditional observations and utilizing early satellite data. The global surface temperature anomalies and precipitation variability show high correlations with observations, despite significant differences in representing specific regions. Areas for improvement include assimilating tropical cyclone data and enhancing the representation of surface temperatures over Australia.

Does ERA5 outperform satellite products in estimating atmospheric downward longwave radiation at the surface?

Wenjun Tang et al.

Summary: This study compared the accuracy of DLR products from ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis and CERES satellite retrievals, finding that ERA5 performed better over land surfaces but slightly worse over ocean surfaces. This highlights the potential application prospects for ERA5 and poses new challenges for quantitative remote sensing research.
