Lukla Global Solar radiation

The measurement is made by pyranometers, which are radiometers designed for measuring the total (global) irradiance on a plane

surface resulting from radiant fluxes in the wavelength range from 300 nanometers (nm), or less, to 3000 nm.

Purpose
This research is important because solar radiation is a key parameter to define climate and also play a role in defining the chemical properties of the troposphere partially contributing in triggering photochemical reactions of important compounds (e.g. NO2). Moreover, solar radiation data can be used to evaluate the presence/development of clouds, thus providing important meteorological information for the interpretation of atmospheric compounds behaviours. Interactions with mineral aerosol from North Africa deserts or black carbon from combustion sources can strongly influence the radiative flux at the surface, thus leading to large radiative forcings.
