Surface engineering to manipulate solar energy for thermal management by Fei, Jipeng

“…It was found that high relative humidity (averagely ~65% at sunny daytime and higher on cloudy days) leads to an apparently narrowed atmospheric window, which strongly hinders the long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) radiation. Meanwhile, daytime solar intensity in Singapore can reach more than 1200 W/m2, which is much higher than that in other regions. …”
