2005: Spectral and broadband longwave downwelling radiative fluxes, cloud radiative forcing and fractional cloud cover over the South Pole

Annual cycles of downwelling broadband infrared radiative flux and spectral downwelling infrared flux were determined using data collected at the South Pole during 2001. Clear-sky conditions are identified by comparing radiance ratios of observed and simulated spectra. Clear-sky fluxes are in the ra...
