Abstract
Radiation balance of the underlying surface ( B ) is one of climate-forming factors, which influences the current climate change. The work discussed the measurements of the components of B (the counter-radiation of the atmosphere E a and the radiation of the Earth's surface E z) in a background region of Western Siberia in 2021-2024. The ranges of variability (hourly, daily, and monthly), extreme hourly and daily totals, and hourly average values of E a and E z are estimated; their daily cycles are analyzed. The maximal average amplitudes of E z daily cycle are observed in summer (50-70 W/m2); in winter they are significantly smaller (7-11 W/m2). The daily cycle of E a is weaker pronounced, its amplitude is 2.5-3.5 times lower than that of E z throughout the year. Overcast sky conditions increase the atmospheric counter-radiation by 40-80 W/m2 compared to clear sky conditions. The measurements are shown to meet the criteria for monitoring long-wave components of the radiation balance specified for the Roshydromet network stations. The results are of interest for the climate change analysis and verification of radiation patterns.
