Abstract
An analysis is made of the monthly mean global and diffuse irradiance values recorded by the Genoa University Geophysical Institute radiation network to derive characteristic elements of the solar climate in four typical NW Italy locations. Diffuse irradiation was estimated for the stations where diffuse irradiation data were not recorded, by using correlations between measured data with clearness parameter and sunshine index. Local factors which affect the attenuation of global irradiance under cloudless skies are discussed.
