Figure 9

Data extracted from previous model validation studies (6-dir technique: filed measurements utilizing pyranometers and pyrgeometers (or net radiometers as an alternative) to obtain short-and long-wave radiation flux densities from six perpendicular directions; Tg-technique: field measurements utilizing globe-thermometers together with air temperature and wind velocity measurements; and : coefficients of linear regressions = × + ; : coefficient of determination; : Pearson’s correlation coefficient; RMSE: root mean square error; MAE: mean absolute error; IA: Willmott’s index of agreement; note: n.a. as well as other cells written in italics font indicate data that were not available in the cited studies).
