La visibilité est la plus grande distance dans une direction donnée, à laquelle il est juste possible, pendant les heures du jour, de voir et d'identifier à l'œil nu un objet proéminent à l'horizon. Le coefficient d'extinction dépend des facteurs d'absorption et de diffusion, ce dernier étant principalement en jeu lorsqu'il s'agit de particules fines, microniques et submicroniques. 3, record 1, French, - coefficient%20d%27att%C3%A9nuation
