Diffusely Transmitted Downward Surface Solar Irradiance for Himawari-8/9 (HIM_SSI_Diffuse)

<p>This product is part of the downward surface solar irradiance (SSI) collection, which was generated for daytime Himawari-8/9 imagery using the <a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solener.2021.03.029">Qin et al. (2021a)</a> algorithm for the Australian continent and surrounding waters. The product is provided here in a regular latitude/longitude grid. It is also available in the original Himawari (geostationary) projection (WGS84, sub-satellite longitude = 140.7&deg;E and satellite altitude = 35785863 meters). Please contact the authors for accessing the data, which is located on the Australian National Computational Infrastructure (NCI). Currently, a near-real-time algorithm/processor is being developed to improve data availability, and to extend production to Himawari-10 (2028-2045).</p>
