Abstract
The effect of the cloud layer plane albedo is overlooked in correlations of diffuse and global components of insolation. We calculate diffuse and global insolation for cloud-free conditions. These are used in conjunction with observations to determine the effect of the cloud albedo. With this effect removed we then derive relationships for the global and diffuse insolation, as fractions of the cloud-free global radiation, as functions of the average daily cloud cover.
