Sky Turbitidy. Greater turbidity factors correspond to greater atmospheric scattering. A turbidity factor of 1.0 indicates an ideal clear atmosphere (i.e. a completely dark sky). Values less than 1.0 are physically impossible. 5, record 1, English, - Linke%20turbidity%20factor

The clear-sky model makes use of the Linke turbidity factor, a parameter quantifying the atmospheric visibility (aerosol plus water vapor) under clear skies. Values of this factor are available on climatological basis ... It varies from site to site and from month to month. Typical values can be found in WMO (1981). 6, record 1, English, - Linke%20turbidity%20factor
