Alt. of Irradiancy
Source: Webster's dictionaryMars has global warming, but without a greenhouse and without the participation of Martians. These parallel global warmings -- observed simultaneously on Mars and on Earth -- can only be a straightline consequence of the effect of the one same factor: a long-time change in solar irradiance.

At zenith, sunlight provides an irradiance of just over 1 kilowatt per square meter at sea level. Source: Internet
Hadley cells are the mechanism by which equatorial generated ozone in the tropics (highest area of UV irradiance in the stratosphere) is moved poleward. Source: Internet
In remote sensing applications, anisotropy functions can be derived for specific scenes, immensely simplifying the calculation of the net reflectance or (thereby) the net irradiance of a scene. Source: Internet
For some special applications or applications where the heat treatment is done on an edge or corner of the part, it may be better to have the irradiance decrease near the edge to prevent melting. Source: Internet
At constant high irradiance, the rate of carbon assimilation increases as the temperature is increased. Source: Internet
