Impacts of Solar Intermittency on Future Photovoltaic Reliability
Jun Yin, Annalisa Molini, Amilcare Porporato
As photovoltaic power is expanding rapidly worldwide, it is imperative to assess its promise under future climate scenarios. While a great deal of research has been devoted to tren…
Energy Constraints for Climate Models from Hydrologic Partitioning
Jun Yin, Salvatore Calabrese, Edoardo Daly +1
It is well known that evaporative cooling of Earth's surface water reduces the amount of radiation that goes into sensible heat, namely the portion of radiation that produces highe…
Reinforcement of Climate Hiatus by Decadal Modulation of Daily Cloud Cycle
Jun Yin, Amilcare Porporato
Based on observations and climate model results, it has been suggested that the recent slowdown of global warming trends (climate hiatus), which took place in the early 2000s, migh…
Radiative effects of daily cloud cycle: general methodology and application to cloud fraction
Jun Yin, Amilcare Porporato
The daily cloud cycle (DCC) and its response to global warming are critical to the Earth's energy budget, but their radiative effects have not been systematically quantified. Towar…
Hidden Warming Effects of Cloud Cycle Errors in Climate Models
Jun Yin, Amilcare Porporato
Clouds' efficiency at reflecting solar radiation and trapping the terrestrial one is strongly modulated by their diurnal cycle. Much attention has been paid to mean cloud propertie…
Response and Feedback of Cloud Diurnal Cycle to Rising Temperatures
Jun Yin, Amilcare Porporato
By reflecting solar radiation and reducing longwave emissions, clouds regulate the earth's radiation budget, impacting atmospheric circulation and cloud dynamics. Given the diurnal…
