Trends in Downward Solar Radiation at the Surface over North America from Climate Model Projections and Implications for Solar Energy

The projected changes in the downward solar radiation at the surface over North America for late 21st century are deduced from global climate model simulations with greenhouse-gas (GHG) forcing. A robust trend is found in winter over the United States, which exhibits a simple pattern of a decrease o...
