Editor's Notes

  • #7 La radiación que llega a la superficie de la atmósfera puede ser calculada analíticamente en función de la posición solar A su paso por la atmósfera sufre procesos de reflexión, difusión y absorción De esta forma, la radiación global que llega a la superficie terrestre está formada por directa+difusa Por otro lado, la Tierra refleja parte de la radiación solar recibida que junto con la reflejada por las nubes es la que da origen a la señal detectada por el satélite.
