An auto-calibration procedure for empirical solar radiation models
We calibrated two solar radiation models for European stations from air temperature data. No solar radiation measurements were needed for the auto-calibration procedure. Similar accuracies as compared to calibration with ground measurements were achieved. The auto-calibration procedure is applicable to other solar radiation models. A freely-available software implementation of the calibration procedure is provided.
