The surroundings of objects in an open atmospheric space usually consist of a hypothetical surface of the sky and the surface of the ground. The aim of thermovision examination of objects located in open atmospheric space, especially buildings, is to determine the amount of heat loss or to assess the insulation quality parameters of walls, roofs and other building partitions. The tested surfaces, including elements of the outer shell of buildings, are often located at different angles to the ground surface and the sky. For the needs of thermovision testing of the considered objects and calculations concerning the radiation heat transfer, it is necessary to know the radiation parameters of the sky. These parameters include the equivalent radiative ambient temperature needed for thermovision measurements (including the temperature of the sky and the ground) and the overall radiative ambient temperature, which determines the heat loss by radiation from the tested surface. The article describes the method of determining the values of these temperatures on the basis of measuring the temperature of the sky with the use of a long-wave infrared camera and calculations. In order to verify the developed method, the results obtained with the use of the above-mentioned method were compared with the results obtained with the use of a pyrgeometer. The verification comprised the comparison of the heat flux of radiation from the sky, calculated on the basis of infrared camera measurements, with the energy flux emitted by the sky and measured with a pyrgeometer. The result of the verification is satisfactory.

Abstract. We use an automatic weather station and surface mass balance dataset spanning four melt seasons collected on Hurd Peninsula Glaciers, South Shetland Islands, to investigate the point surface energy balance, to determine the absolute and relative contribution of the various energy fluxes acting on the glacier surface and to estimate the sensitivity of melt to ambient temperature changes. Long-wave incoming radiation is the main energy source for melt, while short-wave radiation is the most important flux controlling the variation of both seasonal and daily mean surface energy balance. Short-wave and long-wave radiation fluxes do, in general, balance each other, resulting in a high correspondence between daily mean net radiation flux and available melt energy flux. We calibrate a distributed melt model driven by air temperature and an expression for the incoming short-wave radiation. The model is calibrated with the data from one of the melt seasons and validated with the data of the three remaining seasons. The model results deviate at most 140 mm w.e. from the corresponding observations using the glaciological method. The model is very sensitive to changes in ambient temperature: a 0.5 °C increase results in 56 % higher melt rates.

The model results deviate at most 0.14 m w.e. from the corresponding observations using the glaciological method. The model is very sensitive to changes in ambient temperature: a 0.5 °C increase results in 56 % higher melt rates.
