Description
The published dataset has been created using high quality and fine resolution satellite retrievals of aerosols from the MIDAS climatology (Gkikas et al., 2021), as well as information for clouds from CMSAF (Pfeifroth et al., 2017). The surface solar radiation has been simulated using the libRatran radiative transfer model (Mayer and Kylling, 2005). More information about the methodology used to create the dataset can be found in the corresponding study:
I. Fountouakis et al., (2021): Effects of aerosols and clouds on the levels of surface solar radiation and solar energy in Cyprus, submitted to the journal Remote Sensing
