Change in the Transmissivity Parameter with Atmospheric Path LengthSource: Journal of Applied Meteorology:;1976:;volume( 015 ):;issue: 012::page 1321Author:Williams, John G.
DOI: 10.1175/1520-0450(1976)015<1321:CITTPW>2.0.CO;2Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Calculations and measurements show that the transmissivity parameter t is an increasing function of the optical air mass m. An equation for estimating t for several model atmospheres is presented, and the direct beam flux calculated with the estimates is compared with that obtained using a constant value of t. The equation gives significantly better results for hourly or instantaneous values, and for daily totals on some surfaces.
