The CM-SAF operational scheme for the satellite based retrieval of solar surface irradiance - a LUT based eigenvector hybrid approach. (2009, background): “…entirely cloudy pixels for COD ranging between 12 and 0 is in clear disagreement with empirical findings and validated semi-empirical methods for the estimation of beam and diffuse fraction respectively (Skartveit et al., 1998; Gonzalez & Calbo, 1999; Miguel et al., 2001; Ineichen et al., 2009).”
Analysis of different comparison parameters applied to solar radiation data from satellite and German radiometric stations (2009, methodology): “Subsequent validation studies introduced higher moments of the distributions, skewness and kurtosis, as validation benchmarks (Perez et al., 1992; De Miguel et al., 2001 ).”
Designing standalone hybrid energy systems minimizing initial investment, life cycle cost and pollutant emission (2013, methodology): “Hourly horizontal solar irradiation data is used to compute hourly tilted solar irradiation (Gb) values using Klucher [25] and Climed-2 models [26].”
Solar radiation models—A review (2011, methodology): “[18] used an assembled data set from several countries in the North Mediterranean Belt area, and yielded a third-order polynomial for hourly diffuse fraction correlations,”
