Abstract
A statistical model developed by Tarpley is applied to estimate solar irradiance over West Germany during November 1986. Tarpley's model and the METEOSAT data used are briefly reviewed. Daily sums and montly means of global radiation obtained fro 29 stations, uniformly distributed over the studied region, are compared with corresponding ground measurements of solar radiation provided by pyranometers. Monthly means of daily global radiation are also compared with the corresponding values obtained applying a physical method developed by Moser and Raschke.
