On the variability of surface insolation in the equatorial PacificThe potential of a new parameter, surface solar irradiance, for climate studies in the equatorial Pacific is presented. Methods to estimate this parameter use the model of Pinker and Laszlo (1989, 1990) to derive the surface solar irradiance from the visible radiance as observed from satellites. Evidence is provided that the surface insolation can be advantageous in climate studies.
