Some items still missing:
- what's the right value for the average emissivity (1 - reflectivity) - i.e. what fraction of incoming sunlight is reflected by the surface, rather than absorbed?
- because of orbital dynamics the solar constant varies - what is the range and what effect does this have on temperatures (seasonality?)
- how low does the temperature drop during eclipses of the sun by the Earth?
- what is the actual night-time profile?
- what is the actual depth profile?
