A beam of energy hit the slab of rock, which quickly began to glow. Pieces cracked off, sparks ricocheted, and dust whirled ...

Clouds approximately double the reflection of shortwave radiation back to space (i.e. a cooling) and redirect about 20% more ... radiation channel and a total radiation channel. The longwave radiation ...

The project leverages NASA’s Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) mission and the NASA Langley Research Center’s Surface Radiation Budget (SRB ... reports to support heating and ...

Radiational cooling is what gives us cooler nights. This can be especially true for areas in the desert and rural locations.

A new SPF 50 sunscreen prototype uses radiative cooling to both protect the skin from UV rays and cool it off. Compared to a commercial sunscreen, the new formula kept the skin cooler when ...

Radiative cooling involves emitting heat into space to lower temperatures, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional cooling methods. The new aerogels excel at this, making them ...

Dr. Jin Gu, Kang, and his team at the Nanophotonics Research Center of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have created a vibrant radiation-cooling liquid crystal material that cools ...

And investigating a photoluminescent material is a fresh angle for radiative cooling research, but he thinks emphasizing this aerogel’s 104% reflectance of visible light misses the larger point.

Additionally, the air-sea interaction data from the ERA5 reanalysis dataset provided by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), including longwave radiation (LWR), shortwave ...
