Sunshine duration is the length of time that the ground surface is irradiated by direct solar radiation (i.e., sunlight reaching the earth's surface directly from the sun). In 2003, WMO defined sunshine duration as the period during which direct solar irradiance exceeds a threshold value of 120 watts per square meter (W/m2).
In the belt encompassing northern Chad and the Tibesti Mountains, northern Sudan, southern Libya, and Upper Egypt, annual sunshine duration is estimated at over 4,000 hours.
Sunshine duration (SD) is considered to be the best substitute for solar radiation and a key factor in evaluating solar energy resources. Therefore, the spatial and temporal characteristics of SD and the reasons for its changes have received extensive attention and discussion.
Spatial Variation of Sunshine Duration From the perspective of the spatial distribution of the annual SD (Figure 5 a), in the past 50 years, the annual SD has gradually decreased from the northwest to the southeast in China, and the annual SD is relatively long in areas with high altitudes.
In summary, the data required and the sunshine duration calculation using the pyrheliometric method are as follows: Sunshine duration: Period composed by the sub-periods in which the direct solar irradiance is above 120 W/m 2. The sub-period is 1 min.
