The HelioClim Project: Surface Solar Irradiance Data for Climate Applications

The HelioClim Project: Surface Solar Irradiance Data for Climate Applications

Meteosat satellite images are processed to yield values of the incoming surface solar irradiance (SSI), one of the Essential Climate Variables. Two HelioClim databases, HC-1 and HC-3, were constructed covering Europe, Africa and the Atlantic Ocean, and contain daily and monthly means of SSI. The HC-...
