This map is part of the UAE solar atlas developed by the Research Center for Renewable Energy Mapping and Assessment (ReCREMA) at Masdar Institute in Abu Dhabi. The UAE solar atlas utilizes satellite imagery through a robust ANN model to map the solar potential across the country. Estimated irradiance is subsequently validated against independent ground data. Direct normal irradiance (DNI), diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI) and global horizontal irradiance (GHI) are produced at a 3 km spatial resolution and in a near real-time manner (updated every 15 min). Hourly, daily, monthly and yearly irradiation maps for all three components are derived as the final product. The UAE Solar Atlas report with a detailed explanation of the methodology and results is available at http://atlas.masdar.ac.ae/docs/ReCREMA_UAE_Solar Atlas_Report.pdf Relevant publications: Eissa, Y., Chiesa, M., Ghedira, H., Assessment and recalibration of the Heliosat-2 method in global horizontal irradiance modeling over the desert environment of the UAE, Solar Energy, Vol. 86, pp 1816-1825, 2012.

Combined product of Water body ammonium based on DIVA 4D 10-year analysis on five regions : Northeast Atlantic Ocean, North Sea, Baltic Sea, Black Sea, Mediterranean Sea. The boundaries and overlapping zones between these five regions were filtered to avoid any unrealistic spatial discontinuities. This combined Water body ammonium product is masked using the relative error threshold 0.5. Units: umol/l.
