Once multiplied by the irradiance in clear‑sky conditions, the clear‑sky index provides the irradiance under cloudy conditions. The relationships are developed by the means of radiative transfer simulations of various realistic atmospheric states including both ice and water cloud phases. For the direct component, the PAR clear‑sky index is equal to the broadband clear‑sky index. For global irradiance, several linear relationships are proposed depending on the availability of cloud properties namely cloud phase and cloud optical depth. The developed relationships are validated numerically and experimentally by using ground-based measurements from the SURFRAD network in the U.S.A. Overall, it has been found, a squared correlation coefficient R 2 $R^{2}$ close to 1.00 and a relative bias (relative root mean square error) in absolute value less than 3 % (6 %) with respect to the means of the relevant measurements, demonstrating a high level of accuracy of the proposed relationships.","PeriodicalId":49824,"journal":{"name":"Meteorologische Zeitschrift","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141507620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Towards a spatial snow climatology for Switzerland: Comparison and validation of existing datasets","authors":"Simon C. Scherrer, Monika Göldi, Stefanie Gubler, Christian R. Steger, Sven Kotlarski","doi":"10.1127/metz/2023/1210","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1127/metz/2023/1210","url":null,"abstract":"In the European Alps, surface snow cover is of high relevance and a major factor for environmental, ecological and economical systems. The provision of accurate and timely climatological information on the spatio-temporal distribution of Alpine snow cover is hence an important yet challenging task of modern climate services. To assess the quality and the reliability of existing snow cover products in this region, we here compare daily snow cover datasets over Switzerland from the low-resolution ERA5 reanalysis, two intermediate resolution reanalyses (ERA5-Land and COSMO-REA6) and a high-resolution AVHRR-derived remote sensing product with three high-resolution 1 km offline snow models for the past 30 to 60 years. We focus on the parameters snow water equivalent (SWE) and daily snow coverage (snow/no snow). In the challenging Alpine terrain, all datasets are able to broadly represent the mean and the seasonal cycle of SWE and the number of snow days. They also agree on the direction of the trends. Decreasing mean SWE and snow day trends are found for the whole of Switzerland and all subregions in the period 1982–2019. Regarding interannual variability and trends, ERA5, ERA5-Land and COSMO-REA6 seem to perform reasonably well in most regions although the absolute and relative biases can be considerable. Especially ERA5-Land strongly overestimates SWE at high elevations. The biases are often larger in the southern Alps than in and north of the Alps. Most datasets, including the high-resolution ones, have problems correctly representing small SWE values at low elevations. The results indicate that in order to estimate absolute SWE or snow days with a reasonable accuracy, or to conduct a detailed study of the elevation dependence of snow, a km‑scale model that assimilates snow measurements is highly preferable. MeteoSwiss and the WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF are currently setting up a 1 km daily operational climatological product covering the period from 1961 to today.","PeriodicalId":49824,"journal":{"name":"Meteorologische Zeitschrift","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141523251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
