Retrieval Of Atmospheric Turbidity Coefficiant And Water Column Density Fro Solar Irradiance Data, Felix Tendeku

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Ground-based measurement of solar irradiance has been made using a spectroradiometer at wavelengths inapx-water absorption band. An algorithm is formulated to retrieve simultaneously the atmospheic water column density and Angstrom's turbidity coefficient. The transmission models used to account for the contribution from diverse atmospheic absorbing and scattering elements are presented.
