Parameter isotropic_​shortwave_​radiance_​in_​air

Properties

Properties of the parameter isotropic_​shortwave_​radiance_​in_​air
Name isotropic_shortwave_radiance_in_air
Description "shortwave" means shortwave radiation. Radiance is the radiative flux in a particular direction, per unit of solid angle. If radiation is isotropic, the radiance is independent of direction, so the direction should not be specified. If the radiation is directionally dependent, a standard name of upwelling or downwelling radiance should be chosen instead.
AMIP code (Library of AMIP Data Transmission Standards) not specified
GRIB code not specified
