The integral of radiance over area, with units of W sr<sup>−1</sup>. Alternatively, the integral of spectral radiance over wavelength, with units of W m<sup>−2</sup> sr<sup>−1</sup>.
Industry:Weather
The integral of spectral radiation over all relevant wavelengths. This is most commonly applied to the sum of shortwave and longwave irradiances, but usage varies somewhat with context.
Industry:Weather
The integrated scattering cross section for all φ and θ.
Industry:Weather
The interior of a convective thermal that is relatively undiluted by lateral entrainment or intromission.
Industry:Weather
The internal boundary layer formed when air flows over a city. It is a mesoscale phenomenon, the characteristics of which are affected by the nature of the urban surface. When a new rural boundary layer downwind of the city forms at the surface, the urban boundary layer is isolated aloft and is then called the urban plume. Compare urban heat island, urban canopy layer.

TAF
The international standard code format for terminal forecasts issued for airports, which took effect on I July 1996.
Industry:Weather
Temperature at the soil–atmosphere interface.
Industry:Weather
Strong east-northeast to east winds of Lake Garda in Italy.
Industry:Weather
Substances with relatively large vapor pressures. Many organic substances are almost insoluble in water so that they occur primarily in a gas phase in contact with water, even though their vapor pressure may be very small.
Industry:Weather
Substances that are known or suspected to cause cancer or other serious health problems, such as birth defects. Regulations concern the concentration of these substances at the source of emission. Compare criteria pollutants.
