Abstract:
Effects of stratus and cumulus cloudiness on radiation regime of the atmosphere are studied. Monte Carlo method is used to simulate the increase of the mean solar radiation intensity near the earth's surface as a result of screening the outgoing radiation by the cloudy layer. The decrease of albedo of the atmosphere–surface system as a result of multiple surface absorption under cloudy conditions is studied as well.
