The 12 pages that link to Radiance, each with the reason it gives.

• LuminanceCompared with: It is the corresponding radiometric quantity, but unlike luminance it is not weighted for vision.

• Solar irradianceCompared with: Unlike irradiance, radiance retains information about the direction of incoming light.

• ReflectanceNarrower topic: Reflectance measurements often infer reflected light from its directional radiance.

• Radiant fluxBroader topic: It combines surface area and direction to characterize radiative transfer.

• Radiant intensityRelated: It adds emitting area to the directional power measured by radiant intensity.

• IrradianceCompared with: Radiance preserves directional information that irradiance sums over incoming directions.

• RadiometryBroader topic: It captures how much power travels from a surface in each direction.

• Spectral radianceNarrower topic: Spectral radiance adds a frequency or wavelength dimension to this broader quantity.

• SteradianRelated: Steradians quantify the directional part of this central radiometric quantity.

• Integrating sphereRelated: The sphere's diffuse field is commonly characterized by its interior radiance.

• Lambert's cosine lawRelated: Radiance stays constant with viewing direction for an ideal Lambertian surface.

• Diffuse sky radiationRelated: The sky's directional radiance describes the angular pattern whose contributions form surface irradiance.
