Reconstructions of Antarctic local temperature based on the measured ratio of stable water isotopes within deep ice cores show a strong signature of orbital insolation variability 3,4,5,6. Recently, a ...

In past ice ages, the intensity of summer insolation affected the emergence of warm and cold periods and played an important role in triggering abrupt climate changes, a study by climate researchers, ...

Utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) generation has exploded over the past few years. From nearly nothing in the late 2000s, the U.S. now has more than 10 GW of utility-scale solar PV in operation ...

Input is received in the form of short-wave solar energy. This is called insolation. Only approximately 52 per cent of this insolation reaches the earth's surface. The rest is absorbed by water vapour ...
