Parameter upwelling_shortwave_radiance_in_air
Properties
| Name | upwelling_shortwave_radiance_in_air |
|---|---|
| Description | "shortwave" means shortwave radiation. Upwelling radiation is radiation from below. It does not mean "net upward". Radiance is the radiative flux in a particular direction, per unit of solid angle. The direction towards which it is going must be specified, for instance with a coordinate of zenith_angle. If the radiation does not depend on direction, a standard name of isotropic radiance should be chosen instead. |
