Abstract
Model estimates of short-wave solar radiation fluxes for summer conditions in the southern part of Western Siberia in the presence of single-layer of the low and high-level clouds are presented. The cloudiness characteristics were obtained on the basis of statistical models based on long-term satellite MODIS observations: the ranges of variability of the optical thickness and effective particle radius were 1.5-40 and 7.5-25 mkm for liquid clouds and 1-5 and 15-50 mkm for ice clouds, respectively. These low-level clouds characteristics variations lead to changes in the average daily radiation fluxes in the range of 150-300 W/m2 at the bottom (BOA) and 130-230 W/m2 at the top (TOA) of the atmosphere and for ice clouds 230-310 W/m2 at the BOA and 140-220 W/m2 at the TOA. At a fixed optical depth, there is a relatively weak dependence of the average daily radiation fluxes on the effective particle radius.
