Seasonal decomposition of regional average changes in net radiative flux at the surface (NET) into its shortwave and longwave components at the surface—incoming shortwave (INSW), outgoing shortwave (OUTSW), downward longwave (LWDN), and upward longwave (LWUP) radiation—in the agricultural land cover change experiment relative to the natural vegetation experiment (Crops − Natural Vegetation) and the agricultural land cover change with added irrigation experiment relative to the land cover change experiment (IrrigatedCrops − Crops). OUTSW is related to the INSW by the surface albedo (α _s). LWUP is proportional to the surface temperature (T). Gray lines on the bar plots indicate the ±0.5σ range around the mean changes.
