Cloud Radiative Contribution for Downward Longwave Radiation in the Polar Regions
Downward longwave flux is an important factor to determine surface radiation budget, water cycle, and climate change. Cloud is a dominant factor to absorb and emit longwave flux, however the understanding of cloud effect is limited. In polar regions, the contribution of cloud is especially important...

Downward longwave flux is an important factor to determine surface radiation budget, water cycle, and climate change. Cloud is a dominant factor to absorb and emit longwave flux, however the understanding of cloud effect is limited. In polar regions, the contribution of cloud is especially important because of small amount of water vapor. The present study evaluated cloud radiative effect at 4 diffent sites in polar regions, which belong to Baseline Surface Radiation Network (BSRN), with radiosonde and radiation observations. The cloud radiative forcing (CRF) is defined by the difference between calculated downward longwave radiation assumed clear-sky (DLRCalClear) and observed radiation under all-sky (DLRObsAll). Calculation is executed with mstrnX, 1-dimentional two stream scheme. Under clear-sky condition, DLRObsAll and DLRCalClear showed good correlation, DLRObsAll – DLRCalClear = −0.79±5.06W/m2 and correlation coefficient is 0.992.CRF increases with an increase in diffusion ratio, which is the index of cloud amount defined with the ratio of observed diffuse shortwave radiation to total shortwave radiation.
