| Abstract: |
Chapter 3 analyzes solar radiation and its significance in shaping weather and climate.
The forms and laws of radiation are described, along with the instruments used for measuring solar energy and illumination. The chapter then examines the factors determining the amount of solar energy and its geographical distribution across the Earth’s surface. Finally, it discusses the behavior of the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface with respect to the processes of radiation absorption and emission.
