Solar radiation intensities, incident to the sea surface off the Oregon
coast, are measured and compared. Simplification of some physical
and biological problems can be anticipated if the average radiation
received over a broad segment of ocean can be accurately indicated
by the amount recorded at the land station.

Direct-beam solar radiation is presented in graphical and tabular form for hourly, daily, and yearly values for 7 slopes on 16 aspects at 45 and 47.5 degrees north latitude. Theoretical equations necessary for the calculations are given. Solar altitude and azimuth during the day and year are also presented for...
This review concentrates on 10 recent publications dealing with various aspects of radiation exchange in forest vegetation. The articles are discussed with respect to the following categories: definitions,
instrumentation, the modification of radiation by vegetation, and radiation budgets. The papers reviewed have appeared for the most part during the period...
