Shortwave and longwave components of the surface radiation budget measured at the Thule High Arctic Atmospheric Observatory, Northern Greenland

Abstract ∘  N, 68.8∘  W), in North-Western Greenland. The downwelling components of the SW (DSI) and the LW (DLI) irradiances have been measured at THAAO since 2009, whereas the collection of the upwelling SW (USI) and LW (ULI) irradiance was started in 2016, together with additional measurements, such as meteorological parameters and column water vapour. The datasets of DSI (Meloni et al., 2022a; 10.13127/thaao/dsi ≥ 90 ∘) from 29 October to 13 February, assuming maxima in June (monthly mean of 277.0 Wm- 2 - 2 R 2 > 0.99 for monthly data and R 2 > 0.97 for daily data). - 2 - 34.5 and - 43.0  Wm- 2. In March and September, the negative LW net flux overcomes the positive SW contribution, producing a negative SRB. The THAAO measurements show clear evidence of the influence of several regional weather/climate events, that appear strongly linked with SRF anomalies. These anomalies were found, for example, during summer 2012, when a large ice melting event took place over Greenland, and during winter 2019–2020, which was extraordinarily cold in the Arctic region.
