earthkit.meteo.solar

Solar computation functions.

The API is split into two layers:

• Low-level implementations are in the array, xarray and fieldlist submodules.

• High-level functions are in this module and dispatch to backend implementations based on input type.

Submodules

• earthkit.meteo.solar.array
• earthkit.meteo.solar.fieldlist
• earthkit.meteo.solar.xarray

Functions

cos_solar_zenith_angle(…)	Compute the cosine of the solar zenith angle.
cos_solar_zenith_angle_integrated(…)	Compute the time-integrated cosine of the solar zenith angle.
incoming_solar_radiation(…)	Compute the incoming solar radiation at the top of the atmosphere (TOA).
julian_day(…)	Compute the Julian day (day of year as a fractional number).
solar_declination_angle(…)	Compute the solar declination angle and time correction.
toa_incident_solar_radiation(…)	Compute the time-integrated incident solar radiation at the top of the atmosphere (TOA).
