Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of ground-based and satellite based clouds and the earth’s radiant energy system (CERES) retrieved Solar UVA (315–400 nm) and UVB (280–315 nm) radiations across eight diverse stations in India. Utilizing data from ground-based instruments set-up by India Meteorological Department and satellite platform CERES providing the larger spatial coverage, the research aims to assess the consistency and reliability of solar radiation measurements. The selected stations represent varied geographical and climatic conditions, allowing for a thorough evaluation of the UVA and UVB radiation levels over the regions. We have also studied the CERES-retrieved aerosol optical depth at 550 nm (AOD) to see the impact of columnar aerosols on the UV radiation. The observed data for UVA and UVB fluxes were compared with CERES-derived data over the period of one year at all the stations and corrected using linear offset bias correction method. The comparisons show significant correlation values (~ 0.72–0.97) over all the stations. The Mean Bias Deviation (MBD in %) lies in range 0 to − 2.48% for UVA and 0 to -3.03% for UVB suggesting that the observed data was slightly underestimated by the satellite data. The Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD in %) varies from 8 to 22% for UVA flux and 9–26% for UVB flux. We have also studied the impact of AOD which shows the inverse-linear relation with UVA/B radiations, with unit increase in AOD leading to a decrease of 1.29–19.07 Wm−2 for UVA flux and 0.01–0.47 Wm−2 for UVB flux across all the stations. Further, we have also studied the diurnal, monthly and seasonal variation of UVA and UVB along with AOD across all the stations. The 10-years trend analysis for UVA shows the negative linear trend in the range of 0.014–0.048 Wm−2 years−1 whereas a negligible trend of 0.0001–0.001 Wm−2 years−1 is observed in UVB, at all the stations except at Srinagar, where both UVA and UVB fluxes has shown the positive trend of 0.055 Wm−2 years−1 and 0.002 Wm−2 years−1, respectively. The AOD shows a positive trend ranging from 0.001 years−1 to 0.016 years−1across all sites, except at Srinagar it shows a negative trend with 0.002 years−1. The results indicate the inverse relation between UV flux and AOD.

印度不同站点地面和ceres检索的太阳UVA和UVB辐射的研究
本研究对印度八个不同站点的地面云和卫星云和地球辐射能系统(CERES)检索的太阳UVA (315-400 nm)和UVB (280-315 nm)辐射进行了全面的比较分析。利用印度气象部门建立的地面仪器和提供更大空间覆盖的卫星平台CERES的数据,该研究旨在评估太阳辐射测量的一致性和可靠性。选定的监测站代表不同的地理和气候条件,从而可以全面评估该地区的UVA和UVB辐射水平。我们还研究了ceres反演的550 nm气溶胶光学深度(AOD),以观察柱状气溶胶对紫外线辐射的影响。将所有台站一年的UVA和UVB通量观测资料与ceres数据进行比较,并采用线性偏置校正方法进行校正。比较结果表明,各台站的相关值显著(~ 0.72 ~ 0.97)。UVA的平均偏置偏差(MBD)在0 ~ - 2.48%之间,UVB的平均偏置偏差在0 ~ -3.03%之间,说明观测数据被卫星数据略微低估了。UVA通量的均方根偏差(RMSD)在8%到22%之间,UVB通量在9%到26%之间。AOD的影响与UVA/B辐射呈反线性关系,单位AOD的增加导致各台站UVA通量减少1.29-19.07 Wm−2,UVB通量减少0.01-0.47 Wm−2。此外,我们还研究了所有站点UVA和UVB的日、月和季节变化以及AOD。UVA的10年趋势分析显示,在0.014-0.048 Wm−2 years - 1范围内,UVB呈负线性趋势,而在除斯利那加外的所有站点,UVA和UVB通量分别呈现0.055 Wm−2 years - 1和0.002 Wm−2 years - 1的正趋势,在0.0001-0.001 Wm−2 years - 1范围内,UVB的趋势可以忽略不计。AOD在0.001 ~ 0.016 years−1范围内呈正趋势,除斯利那加为负趋势(0.002 years−1)外。结果表明,紫外通量与AOD呈反比关系。
