Studies of the Solar and Terrestrial Radiation Fluxes over Arctic Pack Ice

Abstract

The report discusses surface measurements of radiation in the Arctic Basin to determine a radiation climatology by comparing data from different latitudes, locations, and surfaces; Airborne measurements to determine the effects of clouds and aerosols on radiative transfer in the Arctic atmosphere; and, Mathematical modeling of radiative transfer in the Arctic atmosphere.
