Impact of aerosol and water vapour on SW radiation at the surface: Sensitivity study and applications

This study provides a sensitivity analysis of the downwelling shortwave (SW) irradiance at the Earth's surface with respect to the aerosols and the water vapour. Aerosols are characterized by optical thickness (AOD) and single scattering albedo (SSA), while water vapour is quantified by precipi...
