Short summary
Precipitable water vapor (PWV) is important for various climate and weather studies, but difficult to monitor under various weather conditions. This study shows that surface-based spectral irradiance combined with deep neural network models can accurately estimate PWV under various atmospheric conditions. Models using global, direct, and diffuse irradiances performed best, while even global-only data gave reliable results.
