Transmittance of the Atmosphere for the Photosynthetically Available Radiation Over the Arctic Ocean 2000-2016 ...
We investigated the variations of atmospheric transmittance to Photosynthetically Available Radiation (400nm-700nm) at a pan-Arctic scale between 2000 and 2016. We combined a large dataset of atmospheric and surface Arctic conditions derived from satellites into a radiative transfer model. MODIS atm...
