Abstract
Direct normal and global spectral solar irradiance data sets are presented for selected terrestrial conditions, along with a brief review of previous data sets. The new data sets presented cover the 0.305 μm to 4.045 μm region and were generated with the rigorous BRITE Monte Carlo radiative transfer code, the revised Neckel and Labs extraterrestrial solar spectrum, the U.S. standard atmosphere model, and a rural aerosol model. The data for the 2.45 μm to 4.045 μm region were taken from existing ASTM standards (E891-82 and E892-82). Tabular and graphical data presentations include irradiance versus wavelength, photon flux density versus wavelength, and photon flux density versus photon energy.
