Abstract:

The global spatial distributions of direct solar radiation (DSR) on celestial surfaces over rugged topography serve as a fingerprint of their surface energy and climatic environment. The widespread availability of digital elevation models (DEMs) presents an inspiring opportunity to simulate and further understand the planetary solar radiation environment. In response, we develop and assess a DEM-based theoretical framework for accurately simulating DSR on celestial surfaces. Building upon this framework, we draw the global spatial distribution map of DSR for the Moon, Mars, Ceres, and Mercury. The proposed method demonstrates a satisfactory capacity to restore the visual effect of planetary aerial images. Validation against meteorological data from Earth's stations reveals a Root Mean Squared Error of 22.43 MJ/m2 and a bias of -7.62 MJ/m2. Subsequently, we performed an exhaustive spatial analysis, encompassing both qualitative and quantitative assessments of the DSR distribution, terrain influences, and the underlying driving mechanisms. Specifically, DSR distribution exhibits latitudinal anisotropy in intensity and terrain effects across all celestial bodies, while Mercury displays longitudinal anisotropy, governed by its axial tilt and rotational dynamics. We found that the area proportion of the permanently shadowed regions (PSR) is potentially correlated with the axial tilt angle, while the PSR was underrated for Ceres in previous studies. Using geographical detectors and interpretable machine learning, we quantitatively assessed the contribution of various factors to the spatial distribution and intensity of DSR. Astronomical factors (the sunshine duration or mean solar zenith angle at noon), exert the greatest influence on the spatial distribution of DSR, followed by geographical position and terrain factors. However, terrain factors (terrain openness) contribute the most to DSR intensity, followed by astronomical factors and geographical position factors.
