Outline Copernicus atmospheric monitoring service (CAMS) and its radiation service APOLLO/APOLLO_NG How can APOLLO_NG improve CAMS radiation service?

CAMS and its radiation service CAMS services: Air quality & composition, climate forcing, eimissions & surface fluxes, … CAMS radiation service: provides UV information, solar radiation (clear sky + total sky) Free of charge + well documented / easy to recompute

How to compute solar radiation – Heliosat-4 method

Heliosat-4 cloud properties APOLLO (Avhrr Processing scheme Over Land, cLouds and Ocean, Saunders & Kriebel, 1983)  uses AVHRR heritage channels (0.6, 0.8, 1.6/3.9, 10.8, 12µm) Five different cloud tests (Dynamic visible test, infrared gross temperature test, shortwave reflectance ratio, spatial coherence test, brightness temperature difference) Cloud mask decision: bit adding scheme of fixed thresholds

APOLLO_NG: a probabilistic cloud scheme Uses the same five cloud tests as APOLLO Probability instead of binary threshold Start cloud probability is subsequently updated with cloud test results

Which cloud probability threshold fits best to the old world? Count number of pixels for which APOLLO and APOLLO_NG agree in cloud/no cloud decision Number of agreeing pixels is highest for an APOLLO_NG cloud probability threshold of 40% in most cases. Date Time of observations (UTC) 2008-01-15 02:15 – 21:45 2008-04-15 02:45 – 21:15 2008-06-13 2008-06-17 2008-06-18 2008-06-22 02:15 – 14:00 2008-07-03 02:30 – 21:45 2008-08-15 02:30 – 21:30 2008-10-15
